The literary world welcomes a new mythological fiction masterpiece with the release of Ayudh – Bhasmang Parv, the first part of the Ayudh series by renowned Hindi author Nilesh Pathak. Steeped in Indian myth and mysticism, this novel promises a sweeping saga that bridges the cosmic past with the chaotic present, offering readers a rich tapestry of gods, demons, humans, and mystical realms.
The story draws inspiration from the legendary Samudra Manthan and the division of Amrit, setting the stage for a narrative where the fates of multiple beings—Devas, Danavas, humans, Nagas, and the fourteen worlds (Chaudah Bhuvan)—are intertwined by invisible threads of time itself. Against this cosmic backdrop emerges Maharshi Bhasmang, a unique warrior of the Satya Yuga whose presence casts a luminous contrast in the shadowy age of Kaliyuga.
Equipped with seven rare siddhis, countless divine weapons, and the formidable Chandrahās Parshu, Bhasmang’s mission is audacious: to dissolve those consumed by the five great vices (Panch Mahavikar) into the infinite void and restore Kaliyuga to Satya Yuga. His journey is fraught with challenges, not least of which is Tamas, a descendant of the demon lineage, whose ambition to summon a mighty demon into the present threatens to re-establish a golden empire of Asuras.
The novel promises readers an intense, multi-layered conflict that transcends time itself—past, present, and future collide in a decisive battle where cosmic energy, divine guidance, and mystical weaponry determine the fate of the universe. The story also introduces DSF (Defense Against Supernatural Forces), a human-led initiative seeking to harness Rudra energies to activate Project Barbarik, a critical countermeasure against Tamas’ destructive plans.
Pathak’s writing captivates with a blend of mythology, suspense, and philosophical depth. Each chapter reveals layers of intrigue, weaving ancient lore with contemporary themes, making the novel not just a tale of battles and divine power but also a meditation on duty, destiny, and the cyclical nature of time. The narrative style is immersive, bringing alive celestial weapons, spiritual disciplines, and the cosmic stakes that define this epic.
Readers can expect a journey where every ending opens a doorway to a deeper mystery, signaling that in this universe, every conclusion is but a new beginning. With its rich imagination, mythological grounding, and grand narrative, Ayudh – Bhasmang Parv is poised to become a landmark in contemporary Hindi fiction.
The novel is available in leading bookstores and online platforms, inviting readers to step into a world where mythology meets action, philosophy, and suspense, promising a truly unforgettable reading experience.
