Women in the Mahabharata | The story of Amba | The Bhandarkar Institute

Agnishikhaa Ambaa
A woman who kindled fire within her!
Ambaa, lit by fire of vengeance, she kept on burning through all her births. She tortured herself, sacrificed a normal princely life of quietude just to sustain the fire of vengeance within her. This is the story of Agnishikha Amba, a woman who kindled a fire that burnt within her forever; the fire which burnt her inside out but could not burn down her firm and fiery determination.
