The Theory of Nihility: Chaos and Creation

The Theory of Nihility: Chaos and Creation

There was once a God in the realm where only Divine Beings lived. He didn't know where he came from, for he did not have parents. He was all alone. One day, he found a companion - someone who he shouldn't have met by the laws of their world. As it goes, with time they fell in love. But there was a problem - she was the Devil, and he was a God. He committed the 'sin' by setting her free. Stripped of his divinity and sent to hell for eternity. She gave up her divine form and newfound freedom to accompany him as a spirit. It was tragic. As soon as she got her freedom, she had to give it up again. The Gods thought he could never escape from hell, but they made a fatal mistake. The 'hell' wasn't merely hell, it was a place where beings transcending Gods were born. The strongest curse in their arsenal was breakable. In fact, in ancient times it wasn't a curse but a sacred method for ascension from Godhood. The Nine Cycles of Samsara. The nine cycles to temper one's Soul. With each cycle, one would have an exponentially stronger soul than before. It was once an essential part of Soul Cultivation. But they thought it was a curse... Having broken the 'Curse' and surviving the Nine Cycles of Samsara, Asura Ryuu and Asura Tenka reincarnate in one of the lower Celestial Planes. The new life gives them new opportunities. Who wouldn't want a new life, especially when rising from 'hell'? Although the Gods thought they banished Asura Ryuu for good, they didn't even imagine what it would bring to their realm. With Destiny having taken a liking to him, Asura Ryuu would surely not be an ordinary being in his tenth life, would he? A pair of Heavenly Dragons, Asura Ryuu and Asura Tenka, set off on their new journey together, with Destiny in their grasp this time. Come join them, as they write the story of their lives and the theory of their own - The Theory of Nihility. The Avatars of Chaos and Creation shall share their story with us!

Puppets of Faith: Theory of Communal Strife

Puppets of Faith: Theory of Communal Strife

The sublimity of Muhammad's preaching in Mecca and the severity of his sermons in Medina make Islam a Janus-faced faith that forever bedevils the mind of the Musalmans. This thought-provoking work, besides dissecting the anatomy of Islam, steeped in the Quran, seeks to depict the psyche of the Musalmans, shaped by the proclivities of their prophet, vicissitudes of his life and the attitudes of his detractors, which the mechanism of their umma perpetuates. More to the point, aided by “I’m Ok – You’re Ok”, the path-breaking work of Thomas A. Harris and Roland E Miller’s “Muslim Friends–Their Faith and Feeling”, this book, for the first time ever, psycho-analyzes the imperatives of the Muslim upbringing, which has the potential to turn a faithful and a renegade alike into a fidayeen. Also, apart from delving into the ironies of the faiths that affected the fate of the peoples, eclipsed the cultures of communes, altered the course of history and afflict the politics of the day, this book examines how the sanãtana 'Hindu' dharma came to survive in India, in spite of the combined onslaught of Islam and the Christianity on Hinduism for over a millennium. This book is for those who wish to be aware of the follies of their faith and the foibles of others to lighten the burden of dogma and reduce the baggage of prejudice postulated in its thirty-four well-structured chapters. Also, besides providing a panoramic view of the Indian history, this thought-provoking book appraises the way Gandhi, Nehru, Patel, Azad, Ambedkar, Indira Gandhi, Narasimha Rao, Vajpayee, Manmohan Singh, Sonia Gandhi, Narendra Modi et al made or unmade the post-colonial India. Possibly in a new genre, this free ebook is a book for our times.

One aspect of a Marxist criticism of the 'King story' could be examining the class structure within it. If the story has different characters with varying levels of power, wealth, and status, it might reflect the power dynamics Marx was concerned with. For example, if there is a king who holds all the power and resources while the common people struggle, it can be seen as a microcosm of a class - based society.
