Bahubali

Rate this book
Bharata, king of Ayodhya, had an overriding ambition to become king of kings. He set about subduing every kingdom possible including those of his brothers. The only person to oppose his arrogance was his half-brother, Bahubali, who defeated Bharata in single combat. However, Bahubali abdicated all claims to the throne and left for the forests to meditate. Centuries later Chavundaraya, a commander-in-chief of the Ganga dynasty built a 57 feet high statue of Bahubali at Shravana Belagola. This story has been taken from Pampa's Adi Purana and Panchabana's Bhujabali Charita.

The name has been so famous thanks to the movie with the same name. But hardly 21st century generation know that this name is attached to Gommatha in Sravanabelagola and Jainism. Good knowledge as usual from ACK.

Its very rare to get this book in print edition now.

The amc are short and crisp and always revolve around various topics. I like this book as it tells me things I didn't knew about. But my suggestion is to elaborate a little more and tell more facts. A beautiful topic indeed . Recommend for all ages
