Where does lineage truly begin, on the throne or in the womb?
Mātṛparampara turns the lens of history and itihasa to where lineage truly begins: the womb, the mother, the feminine force of continuity. From the solar and lunar dynasties to forgotten matriarchs hidden between verses, this book reveals how women were not merely consorts or caretakers, but the very foundation upon which bloodlines, civilizations and cosmic order were built.
Drawing from the Puranas and epics, Mātṛparampara brings renewed attention to women as the bearers of legacy, memory and continuity.
Who shaped history in silence?
Who sustained dynasties across time?
This is not a retelling; it is a reclamation.

Sowmya Saranathan
Sowmya Saranathan holds a master’s degree in food technology and has spent a few years in the corporate world. Alongside her professional journey, she has nurtured a lifelong engagement with spirituality and Indian traditions, shaped by a family environment where devotion, inquiry and reflection were part of everyday life.
Her deeper spiritual pursuit began in early adulthood, leading her to an extensive study of scriptures, Purnas and listening to discourses by traditional scholars. Rather than identifying with rigid ritual frameworks, she approaches Sanatana Dharma as a seeker guided by devotion, reason and an enduring love for knowledge.
Her writing reflects a sustained interest in uncovering overlooked narratives within classical texts, particularly the role of women in shaping lineage, legacy and cultural memory. Matruparampara emerges from years of study and reflection, offering a perspective rooted in tradition while inviting renewed understanding of ancient genealogies.
