  🌊   RAHUL – The Tide of Justice.. Set in Junglighat, Andaman Islands Prologue The sea near Junglighat was glowing under a blood-red sunset, the kind that makes you stop and stare, heart thumping with something you can’t quite name. The waves were restless, crashing like they were angry, or maybe just tired of holding onto secrets—old stories of heartbreak and dreams that only the ocean could keep safe. At the far end of the creaky old pier, Rahul Dev stood, his faded kurta fluttering in the salty breeze. He was staring at that ancient lighthouse, its weak light poking at the darkness like a reminder of everything he’d left behind. He was back home, yaar, after all these years. And somehow, it felt like the sea was waking up, ready to whisper back all the things it had kept hidden with him. Chapter 1: The Keeper of the Coast In the fishing hamlets of Junglighat, everyone knew Rahul Dev as The Silent Tide. Not because he was showy or loud, nahin, but because he ...

A Day Trip to Alampur Jogulamba Temple — 4 October 2k25 There are days when the journey feels destined to begin even before the alarm rings — and this was one of them. My alarm was set for 4 AM, but somehow, my eyes opened at 3:59 AM, as if the road to Alampur itself had whispered, “Wake up, it’s time.” After a refreshing head bath, I packed my essentials — a spare pair of clothes, offerings for the goddess, and a heart full of excitement.

The train, scheduled for 6:05 AM, of course carried the classic Indian-Railways charm — a casual 15-minute delay. Finally, we were on our way, watching the city fade into the morning horizon. 🚉 From Rails to Roads By 10:10 AM, we reached Kurnool Railway Station , since there was no direct halt at Alampur or Jogulamba. A quick shared-auto ride brought us to the Kurnool Bus Stand , where after a little waiting and chaos, we boarded...

What Shakti Peethas actually are, and the beautiful mythological story behind how they were formed. 🌺 1. The Background: Sati and Shiva ’s Love Long ago, Goddess Sati (also called Dakshayani ) was born as the daughter of King Daksha Prajapati , one of Lord Brahma ’s sons. From childhood, Sati deeply loved Lord Shiva , the supreme ascetic who lived on Mount Kailash . Despite her father’s disapproval, she married Shiva out of pure devotion. 🔥 2. Daksha’s Yagna and Sati’s Sacrifice King Daksha disliked Shiva’s unconventional ways—his ash-smeared body, serpent ornaments, and hermit lifestyle. To insult him, Daksha arranged a grand Yagna (fire sacrifice) and invited every god and goddess except Lord Shiva and Sati. When Sati heard about it, she felt humiliated but decided to attend—hoping to calm her father’s anger. At the Yagna, Daksha mocked and insulted Shiva in front of everyone. Unable to bear the disrespect toward her beloved, Sati jumped into the sacred fire and immol...
