A little bit
from the Mythology:
Goddess Kali
in Hindu religion represents the
awakening of the inner force that destroy evil. She is also known as
Shakti. In our ancient scripture the demon Raktabeej ( the blood seed) was
given a boon that his blood fell on
ground would create more of such demon with increase strength. It was only kali who solved the vexing problem by drinking up all
the blood before it fell on the ground.
A bit about the story:
The story
starts off with the protagonist Kali,who was found by master Vyaas floating on a raft in Ganga. Kali had supernatural
power of being able to interact with nature. She was
destined to do something big once for the human race,to save them and their thought process from the Asuras who have
the secret to create disharmony.
How will
Kali find Asura in this modern age and save the human race? What secret has
been written in the book of Asuras and where to find them?
My Views:
What
fascinated me in the first place was the eye catchy brightly coloured illustration on the cover by the author himself.
The author has beautifully compared Asuras
with human thought process.
The chapters
are full of short mythological tales which make the story more interesting and
fun to read making it more relatable to the modern age.
The characters
have been developed with much thoughts
and research.
Being a
mythology lover every chapter made me stick to the book till the end.
A very very
thoughtful topic combined with
entertainment from Los Angeles to the Ghats of Benaras.
I recommend
this book to everyone.
A book that reveals
the secrets of human thoughts and how one can defeat them.
Rating: 5/5
