Stories from Upaniṣhads and Puranas

• The king who sacrificed EVERYTHING for TRUTH! Markandeya Purana – Part 1

  What’s the real price of a promise? A piece of gold? A bit of land? For one legendary king, the price of his word was far, far greater. It wasn't his crown or his vast, prosperous kingdom. The ultimate cost of his promise was his beloved wife, his only son, and himself. This is the story of a kingso devoted to truth that he was forced to sell his own family and himself into slavery. It's a story that pushes the very limits of honour, sacrifice, and what a human being can endure. This is the story of the great Ikshvaku King, ancestor of Lord Rama, Raja Harishchandra! This podcast is part 1 of a 2-part story on Raja Harishchandra from Markandeya Purana.We’d love to hear from you in the comments: Do you think one must keep their promise, and to what level one must go to fulfil that in today’s times?
