Abstract
This research study basically analyzes the mythological elements which are associated with natural description in Kalidasa’s The Meghdootam. Kalidasa has employed several Hindu myths relating them with the description of natural places and objects. This study attempts to show how the natural description is linked with mythological ideas for the establishment of an associative relationship of myth and nature. Apart from this, it also brings forth a detailed account of some Hindu myths which are employed in the poem for the reinforcement of the mythological vision that can offer harmony and balance to society.
