«The Ashes of a God» is a collection of Hindu mythology tales by F. W. Bain, published by Gerald Duckworth & Co Ltd in hardback (112 pages, in English).
The book recreates Hindu legends about gods and mortals, with a central thread in the myth of Kama, the god of love, consumed by Shiva's third eye when he interrupted his meditation. From there, F. W. Bain reflects on memory and affection: love endures and is reborn from oblivion, like a phoenix.
The work belongs to the series 'Indian Stories of F.W.Bain'. It was originally published in 1911; this edition is from 2002.
For readers interested in Hindu mythology, traditional Indian tales, and narratives with a spiritual background.
