The Sun Dynasty or Solar Dynasty or Suryavansha is one of the most prominent dynasties in the history of Hinduism, along with the "Chandravansha" or Lunar Dynasty.Harischandra, in Hindu religious texts is the 28th king of the Solar Dynasty. His legend is very popular and often told as a benchmark for an ideal life. He was renowned for his piety and justice. His name is Sanskrit for "having golden splendour". Harischandra had two unique qualities. The first being, he kept his word and never went back on what he uttered as a promise. The other being, he never uttered a lie in his life. These twin qualities were tested heavily in his life by various circumstances that led him to penury and separation from his family. But he stood to his principles in the face of all ordeals and persevered to become a symbol of courage. He ruled over Ayodhya long before Dasaratha the father of Lord Rama.
The story as it has come down to us has many variations from the original narration in the Markandeya Purana (Books VII and VIII) (download original text).

Thanks Prabhat. Appreciate the effort. I wonder if anyone has some of the titles that are not in print. There are about 100 titles that have not been in print for a long time.
Thanks a lot Prabhat.
Good work Ajnaabi. Wish we could call you by a proper name
One of the MY FAVORITIES! :-)
Though I'm not as much crazy as like for IJCs,but i collect ACKs whenever get a chance,,,thse are real gems too!!
There are some SPECIAL issues I always loved to read,,,like those ACKs on Hindu Rajas,Hindu Mythology or several other charcters like Parshuram/Guru Nanyak/netaji/Rana Pratap etc etc...there r sooo many!!
Also those Panchatanra/Jatak's tale/Gopal Bhar are the gems ,,,I simply loved panchatantra's unique animal stories!!!
And last but not the least,we ALL are fond of the Art-work in ACKs,,ain't??? I simply loved their illustratn/coloring n proud for d fact...those are dome by Indian artists...

Deepak: Welcome! Few more rare ACKs are in the collection of my friends. I think, collective work will give us chance to see all in this blog.
Grouchy's Comics: Welcome. “Ajnaabi” is the nick name, as long he will be “Ajnaabi”, tons of ACK we will have. His request to us, not make him too popular. I think we understand why.
Dara: ACK has great contribution to spread Indian history, mythology, culture, folk tales in the world. Through these I get acquainted with the classical works, now try finding time to read the originals.
Phuktya: Welcome. Planning to post every Friday or Saturday one. Next 18 posts are scheduled to post every Friday. Keep visiting.
Anon: Thanks for understanding. I’m too running two blogs and three businesses. I’m personally started collecting all ACK physical copies again. In worse case, at least 1-2 posts will come every month, but hope I will follow my weekly plans.
