Announcing Talk 300 #UrbanGods - Evolving Myths In A Migratory World by Devdutt Pattanaik India was woven together by pilgrim paths. Seekers and sages travelled in all directions, across mountains and along rivers, ignoring artificial boundaries, seeking and finding gods. The urban ecosystem draws people from various parts of the country, each bringing their own gods and goddesses with them. To Mumbai, the Marathas brought Khandoba, the Rajasthanis brought Khatu-Shyamji, the Goans brought Shantadurga, the Odias brought Jagannath, and the Punjabis brought Vaishno Devi. How do these deities change when they arrive in Mumbai? Is mythology static, or is it as dynamic as the city itself? At our landmark 300th Online Talk #UrbanGods, writer and mythologist Devdutt Pattanaik will delve into the topic on how Indian mythology evolved due to migration, adapting to needs of people in their localised urban ecosystems. 📍Sat | 20th December | 6 PM | Zoom Admission Free.
