Ideas about the creation of the world have varied in mythologies, including those of the tribal ones. The tribal accounts of creation, despite taking the sap from the bigger mythologies, display unparalleled freshness.
The myths of creation indicate, the coming from Eternity, and the myths of the afterlife going to Eternity, seen as the common tie between the two.
The present book takes the readers on this search for Eternity, which has remained an urge from ancient times.
