Did you know that you need a
Hayagriva to slay a Hayagriva?  Or that
living beings can be created from something as gross as ear-wax or
sweat?  Or that the way you pronounce a
Sanskrit word can change your destiny, turning you into a buffalo instead of
a queen?  Demons and Demonesses of
Hindu Mythology takes you millions of years back in time when beings as tall
as mountains walked the ground, their every stride causing earthquakes and
tsunamis; when they stayed in their mother’s wombs for thousands of years
before being born; when they transformed into lions or buffaloes or elephants
in the blink of an eye and when encountering beings with five heads, three
legs, twenty arms or indeed torsos without heads was not an exception, but
the norm.  Plunge into the Garbhodaka
Ocean where it all started and immerse yourself in the stories of some of the
most exotic, magical and powerful asuras and rakshasas in Hindu mythology.
