Today, I had the opportunity to see the different options available for reading during Indian Epics, and I was able to become more acquainted with the characters themselves. I looked at the Amar Chitra Katha, and three stories in particular stood out.
The first was the Tales of Shiva, because of it's use of animals as evil spirits, and the many incarnations that Shiva takes.
The second is Krishna and Rukmini because it deals with a more grounded idea that transcends cultures. It's a story about two people wanting to be together, and an external conflict that won't allow it to happen.
The final one is Kamadhendu because I've always found Indian culture's reverence of the cow to be fascinating, and I believe learning more about this character will be a good insight into why exactly they believe what they do.
Overall, while there are many interesting characters and stories to choose from, these are the three that stood out the most.
