Katha : 108 Stories from the Vedas and Puranas
Kanv Sachdev
This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.
108 stories. Infinite wisdom. One timeless tradition.
Katha: 108 Stories from the Vedas and Puranas is more than a book — it is a sacred journey into the heart of India’s spiritual memory. These aren’t just mythological tales; they are luminous teachings encoded in story-form, designed to awaken, inspire, and transform.
Within these pages, you’ll meet gods and sages, cursed kings and divine mothers, vanishing forests and sacred rivers. You’ll encounter Ashwatthama’s eternal exile, Ravana’s forgotten devotion, Shakuni’s quiet repentance, Vishwamitra’s inner fire, and the birth of sound itself through Saraswati’s Veena.
In this collection you will discover:
– Stories that reveal the hidden meaning behind Vedic and Puranic symbols
– Narratives retold with poetic depth and spiritual insight
– Lesser-known legends of nakshatras, divine weapons, and tantric forces
– A contemplative, immersive style that resonates with seekers across paths
Written in a voice that feels both ancient and alive, Katha brings new light to India's oldest wisdom. The number 108 is no accident—it is a sacred vibration echoed in beads, breath, and cosmic cycles. Each story is a bead on that thread.
Whether you read one story a day or immerse yourself in an epic sitting, this book will meet you where you are — and take you deeper.
Perfect for readers of Devdutt Pattanaik, Amish Tripathi, or seekers of inner truth through story, Katha is not just a mythology book — it is a spiritual companion.
