Mahadevi
This book is an attempt to draw closer to the essence of the Divine and shatter the several myths we might be dwelling on. It is branched into two parts. Part 1 is a narration by Mahadevi for a rational mind. An account of some enthralling events through the multiverse, inhabited by numerous celestial beings, in the backdrop of the genesis of this universe. A chronicle of Gods and Goddesses, their struggles, the devious web of right and wrong, love in its complete glory, its absence, ecstasies, miseries, and the wars of the worlds. Part 2 is an anthology of entrancing stories based on the nine forms of Mahadevi described vividly in Part 1, revealing her qualities in the every day women of Kali Yuga. These tales set in today’s times ask a silent yet germane question to all those who worship Her – if they can identify their Durga when they see one. Do they have the Eye for Durga!

A brilliant read indeed.” - Dr. Anand Ranganathan, Author & Scientist.
