Hindu epic

Hindu epics are grand traditional stories that explore themes of duty, morality, and spirituality, mainly through two texts: the Mahabharata and the Ramayana. The Mahabharata, one of the longest poems in history, narrates the story of a dynastic struggle and includes the Bhagavad Gita, a philosophical dialogue on life and duty. The Ramayana tells the story of Lord Rama's quest to rescue his wife Sita from demon king Ravana, emphasizing virtues like righteousness and devotion. These epics serve as cultural and spiritual guides, shaping morals and values in Hindu tradition.
