They capture something deep and profound about India's heritage and the eternal nature of the Hindu religion. So let me just state that I loved everything the artist Abhishek Singh and his team accomplished in these books. I never quite expected the artwork to be so immersive, detailed, and beautiful. It truly gave off epic vibes. The stories contained between the covers brought India's rich and ancient beliefs to life in more ways than one. I wouldn't call the books religious, per se, but they did possess an incredible weight of spirituality and symbolism just waiting to be explored, or rather re-explored. Review: Simply Magical - Its difficult to say whats more ethereal - Abhishek's art or his storytelling.. or the simplicity in his words that makes the most complicated feelings comprehendible. His mastery over these freeflowing artscapes and his enthralling stories that have a fluid myriad of worlds and beings mystical yet relatable, just add more mystery to the myths Abhi is creating in this book. Namah also consists of some of my most favorite unpublished and unreleased rare art of Abhishek Singh. These pieces created over the last ten fifteen years are presented for the first time for his fans. Jumping straight out of his numerous sketchbooks, canvases, digital files - these masterpieces are worth cherishing. The book is as poetic and Sufiana as Abhishek Singh, experience the magic and savour the amazing art of Abhishek Singh.

Great graphics
The graphics are great, but I would love it if they had paid more attention to the product quality of the printing. My first book actually had to be replaced. This one is fine except that I notice the page width varies in some places.

"You will become all of it, one big breath when the night dawns" - Namaha -Story 2 -
A significant care and love has gone into this art. The energy translates through. I have been following Abhishek Singh's work since I started my artistic journey. His works for me shares the same summit as Indian classical artists like Raja Ravi Verma and M. V. Dhurandhar. Over the years reading his stories on social media and his outreach and recently his studying of Elephants to bring their stories to the light is really heart warming. I am happy that there are a few paintings of the majestic beasts in the chapter Ansuya. (one of my favorite stories of the book thus far) I don't know what else to say, but if you like expressive and immersive art, a dive into the cosmos of Indian Gods and Goddesses and an affinity for great story telling, this book is for you.

Not a very good read but a good looking book
Youre better off finding the content online if you are looking for something to read around hindu gods, you can finish reading this book in less than an hour. Art is good looking, some of them are actually great work Overall, if you have spare money and looking for something to just keep go for it! Oh yes, it probably wont fit in most bookshelves as well

Great: essence. Average: print quality. Bad: used!
Very good one from Abhishek Singh, and similar in most ways to Purnam- very surreal and dream like, just like the Shiva mythologies it is based upon! I resonated with the author- in his sketches, and in his prose. The binding is great. My grouses: 1. Publisher (wonder house) this one has a print quality that is clearly not as good as the Purnam copy I received. Was that one great, or this one bad? 2. Seller (Cocoblu): why did you sell me a used copy?!! If used, at least ensure that some pages are not as crumpled (none were torn, thank you!) In your defence, this is the first time in multiple orders, so let's agree to dismiss this as a one off.
