Norse Mythology can be explained as the myths and legends that formed the religion of the people living in Scandinavia, which now forms the countries of Norway, Sweden, Denmark and Iceland. This Old Norse religion was popular from 790 AD to 1100 AD, which was also the Age of the Vikings. The main texts of Norse Mythology are the Poetic Edda and the Prose Edda, which were written in the 13th century. Many characters from Norse Mythology, such as Thor, Loki, Odin, Hela, and Frigga, and even some places like Asgard and Midgard, are now famous worldwide due to Marvel's comics and films based on them.
Hindu Dharma, also called the Sanatana Dharma, is one of the world's oldest religions originating from the Indian subcontinent around 4,000 years ago. Unlike the Old Norse religion, which perished after Christianity, Hinduism is strongly practised by the Hindu people living in the entire subcontinent. There are three main deities in Hinduism, namely the Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva. Also, the Ramayana and the Mahabharata are the two most popular epics.
Hindu Dharma and Norse Mythology are both polytheistic, meaning they involve the worship of multiple gods. Also, Thor thundering across the skies is very similar to Indra reigning over the clouds.
This book explains the major stories of Norse Mythology, also explaining the similarities and parallels found in Hindu Dharma. At the end of each chapter, a comparison table also highlights and explains the similarities in a structured way. This book will prove to be entertaining and informative for all the readers of religion, as it combines an engaging storytelling with meaningful insights at the end.
