Vṛtra - The Dragon from the Rig Veda

PH2T3R The Journal of Solar Culture - A podcast by Jack Donovan - Thursdays

Jack Donovan explores the concept of the serpent (or sorcerer?)Vṛtra from the Rig Veda with Order of Fire member, Ed, who has spent many years studying Sanskrit and Vedic texts in India and America. The Rig Veda is a collection of hymns from pre-Hindu India, but as we read through it, you'll see that it contains some of the most high-test language you'll find in ancient literature and what seems like a fantastic Robert E. Howard storyline about a powerful hero who goes to war with a greedy snake cult made up of sorcerers and slaves.
