The puranas are lengthy Hindu sacred texts, the oldest of which date back to sometime in the first millennium CE. They were written in verse couplets. This is an abridged prose English translation of the seventh purana, which in its original form is 9,000 couplets long. It is part of the Great Epics of India series, published by Books for All in Delhi.
