Storybook Plan

Indra and Vritra


I will be doing my storybook about Indra and his various adventures and stories. I will mainly focus on how Indra became king of heaven, his fall from grace, and redemption story. So far, I have three stories I want to look at: 

Indra and Vritra: Indra defeats Vritra, a demon who wrecks havoc, and is crowned king of heaven, but this does not last for long.

Indra and the Ants: After Indra defeated the demon he wanted a huge palace to commerate his great feat, so he told the architect of heaven to design him a great palace. But whatever design he came up with did not satisfy Indra. Bhrama saw this and decided that Indra needed to be punished so set a trial for Indra which would make him repent.  

Indra and Shachi: During this time, someone else had to rule Svarga with Indra gone so Nahusha took the throne, but none of the gods liked his rule and Shachi, Indra's wife, begged him to come back and defeat Nahusha, which Indra did and became the king of Svarga again.

I love my major because it is so interesting to learn about the world around us and organisms that are inside of us.

My favorite things to watch on Netflix are shows with a lot of drama and action, and one of my favorite shows that fits this criteria is Mad Men. Other shows I constantly find myself watching are The Office and That 70s Show. However, a lot of my time this quarantine was spent playing Warzone with my friends.

Week 4 Story: Rama and Sita

Author's Note     I decided to put my own spin on the story of Rama and Sita . In the original story Rama visits Sita's kingdom where she is a princess, and the only person she can get married to is the one who is able to use the Bow of Shiva. Rama not only is able to use the bow, but snaps it in half with his insane amount of power. I put my own spin on it by putting these characters in a more modern setting. Bibliography Ramayana , Various Authors, Public Domain Edition Rama and Sita        "I'll never find the right one" Ram thought to himself. He always felt pressure from his father to find the right girl. Someone who would support him so that Ram could run his father's multi-million dollar company well. But to Ram it seemed like all they want him for is the money. However. this all changed when he thought he met the one: Sofia. To him she was perfect. Intelligent, driven, and her family also owned a big company so it was a match made in heaven. Still, ...
