Mahashoti – Inflated Ego and War

Mahashoti – Inflated Ego and War

The guards mistook Shriti’s soul as that of their princess Mahashoti and carried it with them to Vhurab. Shriti’s soul was then pushed into a new body that belonged to princess Mahashoti. However when the mistake was detected the planetary positions had changed and the conditions had become unfavorable to set right the mistake. So Shriti stayed as a guest in Vhurab. As per the rule of Vhurab, she was made to go through past life regression.

Shriti felt waking up from sleep. In past life she was the daughter of a village headman in planet Atabel. The story begins by her abduction followed by rescue, fights, war, politics and other complications. It tells one thing. If we see the history, we will find that most wars have been fought due to personal ego, arrogance and destructive aspirations of despotic rulers. The history has consistently repeated itself throughout the life span of a planet. This novel is interesting because it is full of ups and downs, surprises and unimaginable things.

However the best book I like is famous epic Mahabharata. One can learn many things from this epic, which are relevant in present time. I have included many tidbits from Mahabharat in the book ‘Worldly Wisdom 2 Godly Grace’ published by Authorspress.

Drona and Dhrupad had studied at the same school during their childhood. Drona was poor whereas his friend Dhrupad was the prince. Dhrupad had then declared to Drona that they were friends and whatever belonged to him belonged to Drona.

When they grew up Drupad became a king and Drona earned his livelihood as a poor priest. Drona was so poor that his wife used to give their son rice water instead of milk. Seeing this plight, Drona went to Dhrupad for help.

Unlawfully taken from Royal Road, this story should be reported if seen on Amazon.

But Dhrupad had become arrogant. He insulted Drona. “Friendship exists among equals. I am the king and you are a poor priest. Ask anything as a charity. But do not claim it as friendship,” thus spoke King Dhrupada to Drona when the latter had asked the king for one cow.

This humiliation angered Drona. Thus he cursed Dhrupada.

What goes up, it must come down

Forever none can keep the crown

Yet this crown made you so proud

One day your head will roll on ground

Dhrupada was infuriated and asked his guards to drive away Drona. Drona remembered the insult. This small incident provided just another reason that caused the Great War ‘Mahabharat’, which is depicted in the epic. This war fought long ago in India can be likened to a ‘World War’. It was fought due to clash of personal ego of few individuals and resulted in total annihilation of people from both sides.

Will life continue on earth till eternity or will it come to an end someday due to war, decease, or calamity? What will happen to souls of people who will die? Does life exists on some other planets where these souls will take rebirth or is there no such thing? If life does not exist after death, is there a purpose to existence?

The original fiction ‘Mahashoti’ does throw some light on these questions. However, it is not an authentic text. It is just an imaginary story that may appear to be incredible and real at the same time.
