Sister Nivedita,

About this book

Ananda K. Coomaraswamy's Myths of the Hindus and Buddhists, co-authored with Sister Nivedita, is a profound exploration of India's spiritual imagination through its foundational stories. Blending scholarly insight with deep reverence, the authors retell mythic narratives of gods, sages, heroes, and cosmic forces drawn from the Vedas, epics, and Buddhist scriptures. Each tale is accompanied by interpretive commentary that reveals symbolic meanings and spiritual significance. Coomaraswamy's mastery of art, culture, and religion shines through, presenting Indian mythology not as folklore, but as a living, philosophical tradition that speaks to the soul. Rich in metaphor, ethical depth, and cultural detail, this volume invites readers into a timeless world where myth, art, and spirituality are inseparable. Essential for anyone seeking to understand the heart of Hindu and Buddhist thought.
