Step into the grandeur of the Mughal Empire with this episode of Soul Connection, where we explore the fascinating narratives of Jahangir and Shah Jahan as depicted in "Emperors of the Peacock Throne" by Abraham Eraly.
Jahangir, known for his love of art, nature, and indulgence, emerges as a complex ruler whose reign balanced cultural enrichment with political challenges. Shah Jahan, on the other hand, is celebrated as the architect of eternal beauty, giving the world the iconic Taj Mahal while navigating the intricacies of imperial power.
Through Eraly’s vivid storytelling, we uncover the ambitions, passions, and legacies of these legendary emperors who left an indelible mark on Indian history. Join us for an in-depth discussion of their lives and the world they shaped.
