Review
Nahusha was an ancestor of the Pandavas. He was a descendant of Manu (Manu-lla-Pururavas-Ayus-Nahusha).The first tale in this Chitra Katha is from the Padma Purana and the other two from the Mahabharata.In ‘The Curse’, Nahusha serves as a model of devout worshipper. When he was humble and devout, his power and renown increased, but his subsequent vanity led to his downfall. After his fall, he returns to heaven and comes to be counted again as amongst the most noble.The story of Nahusha and Chyavana has been modified for our young readers.
