It includes an allegorical analysis of mythological stories like 'The Slaying of Vritrasura with Dadhichi's Bone-Vajra', a discussion on the mythological geography of India, and an article on 'India's Perspective on History'.

The editorial emphasizes the need to understand all aspects of history.

Key Highlights

  • 01An allegorical analysis of the myth of Dadhichi and Vritrasura, suggesting it was not a physical battle of bone and weapon, but a conflict between effective philosophy and a passivating ideology.
  • 02In the Indian perspective, 'Itihas' is not merely a collection of events, but a factual narrative integrated with the teachings of Dharma, Artha, Kama, and Moksha, inspiring the nation to build its future.
  • 03According to the Puranas, the geographical expanse of Bharatvarsha was much larger than its present boundaries, comprising nine islands (khandas) within Jambudvipa, presenting the concept of a 'Greater India'.
  • 04The magazine includes special articles on the life of Thakur Ramsingh, his final journey, and his birth centenary celebration, highlighting his contributions to history and society.
