Description:
Indra Finds Happiness is a charming and quietly profound story from mythologist Devdutt Pattanaik, part of the Fun in Devlok series. Little Harsha is feeling very sorry for himself one day — convinced he must be the unhappiest person alive. A kindly cloud decides to prove otherwise, carrying him up to the magnificent palace of Indra, the king of the gods. To Harsha's astonishment, Indra — surrounded by extraordinary treasures including a wish-fulfilling tree, a pot of endless gold, a magical healing potion, and his glorious six-tusked white elephant Airavata — is somehow even sadder than he is. Indra still wants more, hatching a mischievous scheme to steal the wise sage Vasishtha's special cow. When caught, Vasishtha reveals the true secret of happiness. A wise and witty tale about gratitude and contentment. Recommended for readers aged 6 and above.
