My debut and upcoming book - soon to release....

 Here's a short blurb of what this book is about...


Rama has to yet again defend Ayodhya from its enemies. This time it is the ancient, dreaded clan of Nagvanshi’s. And this time they threaten from within and from foreign shores. Yama and Kubera have combined forces to form a more resourceful, powerful, and battle-ready force. At stake is a vast, peaceful, and rich kingdom. But can Rama battle these invisible forces that have permeated within the society? Will he continue to protect Dharma, or will he succumb to the enemy forces and manipulations?

Bedtime Story No.1: Onion Makes you cry, why?

Once upon a time, there lived a poor onion couple called Pyazalal and doPyaza. They were always made the object of ridicule among his friends - the tomoatoes, peas, corns and other vegetables. They complained that the onions smelt badly, their clothes are always torn and that their house was under the ground. Everytime the Pyaza's tried to go out with their neighbours, they made fun of him and made him sad. They then decided to pray to God who came before them one day and asked them what made them cry. Pyazalal told God what happened and asked God to make his wife look pretty and move them to a new house above the ground. God looked at him and told him gently that every vegetable has its own charm and smell and taste. No one is better than another. But the Pyaza's was not convinced. They pleaded with God to stop their friends from making them cry. So God thought that it was about time to teach other vegetables a lesson. So he told the kids born to Pyazalal and doPyaza shall be

Notes for the "5000 years after Krishna"

- Prabhasa Pathan is the beach place the Vrishnis came for revelry - Mount Raivataka near Prabhasa - Krishna's son Sambha is said to have taunted the rishis and incurred the curse - fight first started between Satyaki and Kritivarman, where K reminded S of how he unfairly killed Bhurisravas - Based on the astrological information provided by Veda Vyaasa, Mahabharat war was estimated to have started on 3067B.C. on 22nd November, thus destruction of yadavas took place in 3031BC - Sri Krishna's Birth - He was born on 3112B.C. on Friday at 11:40 PM, and passed away on 3031BC, April 13th Friday - Vali (to avenge Rama's unfair killing behind his back) was said to have got a boon to be reborn as Jara who's arrow killed Krishna - Arjuna took with him the remaining Yadavas to Mathura where he later installed Vajranabhi (son of Aniruddha, grandson of Pradhyumna, great grandson of Krishna) as the ruler of Yadavas. -The Mahabharata of Krishna-Dwaipayana Vyasa, BOOK 16, Mausala-parv

Backdrop for the story - End of Yadavas

References: The Mahabharata of Krishna-Dwaipayana Vyasa, BOOK 16, Mausala-parva; Translated into English Prose from the Original Sanskrit Text by Kisari Mohan Ganguli [1883-1896] http://www.sacred-texts.com/hin/m16/m16000.htm Setting of the plot: After the great Mahabharata war (circa 3031 BC), Krishna & Balaram return to Dwaraka and rule on for 36years. There are several small kingdoms (clans of yadavas) under them such as Bhopas, Vrishnis, Satyakis, Kritavarmas, etc...During this time as the Yadavas get more powerful and inevitably more arrogant and drunk with power, they fail to discharge their Kshatriya duties properly. One day, led by Krishna's son Sambha, they play a practical joke on a Rishi and he incurs a curse whereby a mace would be born to him and that would prove to be all of their death-knell.... They dont take it seriously, but soon, Sambha develops labour pains and delivers a mace!!! The people get scared and wondering what to do, the chieftains decide to powder
