Well, I guess he’s still older than me, now that I think about it, and he had a real thing for Wendy, so I always saw his latest Polaroid snapshots of her. She also participated in a nightclub show put together by comics artist Frank Thorne, with Thorne as “The Wizard.” My friend Bob Pinaha was a little older than me at the time. I was a teenager with a comic book fixation, and she was a stunning redhead who dressed up at comic book conventions as Red Sonja, the chain-mail, bikini-wearing, female barbarian that emerged from Marvel’s Conan the Barbarian comics. You know when you meet someone early in your life how that’s the person they will always be in your mind’s eye? 1’ by Wendy and Richard Pini from by clicking on the book cover above! Devdutt Pattanaik.Order ‘Elfquest Archives Vol. The story of Yuvanasva forms the plot of the book, The Pregnant King, written by Dr. “From their rising to the going down of the sun, all that is irradiated by his light, is the land of Mandhata.” - Vishnu Purana This description of male pregnancy is similar to events described elsewhere in the ancient Hindu texts, such as that of Samba in the Mahabharata. This boy, named Mandhata, grew up to be a mighty monarch who conquered seven continents. The neonate was nursed by Lord Indra with divine milk which flowed from his fingers. After one century, Yuvanasva delivered a male child though a cut made by the Gods on the left side of the abdomen. While Yuvanasva inadvertently drank consecrated water planned for his sacrifice, the sages announced that a son would be born to the queen who had consumed the holy water. As he had infertility, the sages began a sacrifice to help him attain fatherhood. Yuvanasva, son of King Prasenajit and his wife Gauri, was a King of the Ikshvaku dynasty. This was probably an example of adoption, or surrogate motherhood, practiced with utmost confidentiality. Unable to beget children, he and his wife received their daughter Sita as a gift from mother Earth.

Janaka, King of Mithila, tried a different mode of treatment. His son Amsumaan continued the Sagar dynasty. Kesini elected to have just one son, who turned out to be the cruel, lunatic murderer Asananjas. Unfortunately, all of them met an untimely death at the hands of Sage Kapila in patala (Hell). Sumati opted to take an “ovulation inducer” which created 60000 capable sons. His wives Kesini and Sumati received medication from Sage Bhrigu who asked them to choose between two types of drugs. Sagar, the King of Ayodhya, was affected by infertility as well. It must be noted here that though Dashrath might have been the cause of subfertility (male factor), the treatment described was female-centric, and was the forerunner of induction of ovulation. These queens bore the princes Rama, Lakshmana, Shatrugan, and Bharata. The remaining one-eighth portion was given to Sumitra as well. This porridge was divided among his wives: Half was given to Kaushalya, the eldest wife, one-fourth to Sumitra, and one-eighth to Kaikeyi. Trying to achieve fertility, he conducted a horse sacrifice, and for this he received God-sent porridge. King Dashrath is perhaps the first reported case of infertility in the world. With this caveat, we study various endocrine exemplars from a gland-based, rather than a chronological, viewpoint. Many of the characters do not form part of the actual Ramayana, but are included as they are related to the Suryavanshi or Ikshvaku dynasty, to which Lord Rama belonged.

We understand that there may be varied interpretations, both historical and scientific, of the events narrated here. Vignettes of infertility, parthenogenesis, and infatuation adorn both books. In many regards, the Ramayana's endocrine episodes reveal similarity with events chronicled in the later Indian epic, the Mahabharata. We collate episodes related to endocrine function and dysfunction, providing a glimpse into the rich description of endocrine health provided in the ancient epic. We approach the Ramayana through the eyes of an endocrinologist. Scripture, literature, religion, and myth: Different words have been used to describe this epic. The Ramayana has varied meanings for various people.
