Classic Indian Stories: The Story of Ayyappan

Born of gods. Raised as a prince. Destined for immortality. When the buffalo-headed demon Mahishi unleashes his fury upon the heavens, the devas resort to an extraordinary solution-the coming together of Shiva and Vishnu. From their union is born Ayyappan, the warrior who will restore dharma in the universe. Ayyappan's journey is one of discovery, courage and unmitigated compassion. As he grows, so do his powers. And yet, those blinded by greed fail to see the divine light in their midst-until the day of reckoning. Allied with marvellous imagery and colours, this is the compelling story of the god of Sabarimala.
