The King Yayati.

      Аннотация: This authentic research work on the epic King Yayati gives the Vedic Wisdom through the seven most memorable characters being King Yayati, Devayani, Sharmishtha, Guru Shukracharya, Kacha, Apsara Viswachi and Madhavi. Kacha was steadfast and his love was brotherly and refused to marry lovely and aggressive Devayani. Sharmishtha was the princess-turned maid beating Devayani at her own game by marrying her husband Yayati. This got embroiled in the rivalry, jealousy, and passion between them whose doting fathers helplessly involved. Yayati asked his five sons for exchanging their youth as he was cursed by Guru Shukracharya but Puru accepted. His lust for pleasure continued and sported with Apsara Viswachi and gave birth to Madhavi. The beloved Madhavi was blessed to turn as a virgin after giving each birth. She mothered four great Sages Ashtaka, Pratardana, Shibi Chakravarti and Vasumanas. Apsara Viswachi made him realize the differences between the Quests for Immorality and Immortality as God has undecaying, infinite beauty alone. He understood and performed meritorious functions and reached Vaikuntha with Madhavi and her Sage sons, which readers will love with speechless wonder!
