VEERABHADRA – VB

Episode –1 (BACKSTORY OF VEERABHADRA)

Veerabhadra story sets in the 12th century with a character named 'Hritesh' who is 20 years old boy and is living in the 'Vijayapura' village of 'Seuna (Yadava)' dynasty which was ruled by 'The Bhillama V ruler. The Seuna dynasty was a well-known dynasty and that was a period of philosophers like the great 'Basavanna' who was preaching "Equality" in society.

Hritesh our protagonist is a humble person living in the Vijayapura village who has a father, mother, and a brother, his father was an 'Ayurvedic' practitioner who uses natural herbs to heal wounds like snake bites, chicken pox, etc. diseases, and Hritesh's mother was a social worker who helps and fulfills people needs. Hritesh's brother was 10 years old.

Hritesh was a very humbled boy who always avoids fights and a very peace-loving person who was born taking inspiration from "Lord Shiva" his father Vijay will always tell Hritesh about the stories of lord shiva and Hritesh was mesmerized to listen to all the stories about Shiva.

Hritesh's family was always a follower of "Saint Basavanna" who was a great philosopher and he was preaching equality in society this time he was coming to vijayapura village for an event but some of the high castes people were not happy in the vijayapura of Basavanna's arrival because basavanna was a high caste person himself but he was preaching that all castes are one so, the high castes people were upset of him so, they announced that whoever meets basavanna will be thrown out of the vijayapura so, the good high castes people were also afraid of this and they didn't attend that event.

But Hritesh's family wasn't afraid of this warning and they went to meet basavanna at that time and by meeting basavanna they were overwhelmed because basavanna was a man full of his words and his smile was confident, he was having stiff body language which was showing that he was afraid of none, and he greeted hritesh's family very well.

Hritesh's family were coming back from the event but on the way, a village person named 'Mahantesh' meets them in a bit tense state and tells them that their home was being burnt by some goons and Hritesh's father tries to protect his home but got killed by the goons and goons start chasing them also, hritesh family starts running and in between hritesh's brother was displaced this made Hritesh's mother very much tensed, she sent hritesh with that village person and they both hid themselves in the bushes and hritesh's mother started to look for her other son and soon goons approached her and dragged her to some other place.

Hritesh was watching this from the bushes, and he wanted to protect his mother, but the village person was not letting hritesh to go, hritesh was a humble person who even doesn't know what to do in this type of situation. He just ran into the forest with tears in his eyes searching for his mother.

Episode – 2 (THE STRUGGLES OF VEERABHADRA)

Hritesh starts roaming in the forest with fear and tears in his eyes where he roams from north to south and east to west in the forest but he is unable to find his mother soon the sun starts setting and hence, hritesh fear was increasing according to the darkness and when the dark approached he started feeling lonely in the forest where he was experiencing the terrific sounds of the wind, animals screaming and the chilling cold. Hritesh lost his way, and his fear can be imagined by his deep breaths at that time.

After 2 days, hritesh is still roaming around the forest and he is gathering all the courage which he has left with him still he is in the belief of getting his mother and surviving by just eating fruits from the trees. He started feeling thirsty and heard some waterfalls sound from the forest and he starts approaching that waterfall and suddenly he sees an 'Aghori' from far away who was drinking water from that waterfall and a tiger is approaching towards that aghori, hritesh screams "Tiger is Approaching go away" but aghori is at another end of waterfalls and he is unable to hear hritesh's voice.

The tiger is still approaching and hritesh swims and reaches at other end and he pushes Aghori far away and the tiger starts running towards hritesh and he starts running with fear but he wanted to save that aghori, hritesh runs and runs like hell and then, he reaches a temple where he finds "Shivalinga" and he starts praying to shiva and hence, some people come with some firesticks and make that tiger go away and they suggest hritesh to eat Prasada as a food and to stay today's night in this temple and hritesh agrees for that and he sleeps in that temple where he misses his mother and slowly closes his eyes and he sleeps.

The Next morning, hritesh hears some 'Bajana' (offering prayers to the god in the form of music) and sees lots of people gathering towards one man and taking his blessings, and a big 'Rudra Abhishek' ritual is performed by that man. Hritesh slowly opens his sleepy eyes, and he curiously looks towards that man and finds that he was "Saint Basavanna" himself that temple was named "Kudalasangama" and the god's name was "Kudalasangamadeva".

Hritesh was completely mesmerized by that, and he happily touches the feet of basavanna with tears in his eyes and basavanna sees that hritesh got lots of wounds while he was running from that tiger and hritesh sees basavanna as a last belief of hope because basavanna smile was so charming that even a 'dying person' can feel the energy of hope even in his last breathes.

Episode – 3 (THE ENTRY OF ASURAS)

After 'Samudra Manthana' (churning of the ocean) the first 'Vish' (poison) arrived and was drunk by 'Lord Shiva' to rescue the entire universe so, he got the name 'Neelakanta' which means 'Blue throat' and hence, second arrived 'Amrit' (elixir of eternal life) which was need to be disturbed equally among the gods and the asuras as promised by the gods.

But the gods were feeling unsecured to give Amrit to asuras because in the past the asuras were uncontrollable and became selfish when they got a boon from the gods so, the gods went to 'Lord Vishnu' to give them a solution for this problem and then, Vishnu changed his form to 'Mohini' (a beautiful girl) and attracted all the asuras and taken them to the Hell and then, all the gods drank amrit and got their powers back.

One day, 'Mayaavi' (deadly asura) got to know that all the asuras have been tricked by lord Vishnu so, he took an oath that he will defend all the gods and take control over the entire universe. To make that happen first he need to regain all asuras powers back so, the mayaavi and all other asuras disguised themselves and got out of the hell they captured a 'Rushimuni' (saint) and the rushimuni feared for his life, and tells them that they should perform a ritual to get their powers back and suggested them to go to the earth and take all human souls and do a 'yagya' (a fire ritual).

Then, mayaavi with all other asuras entered the earth and start sucking human souls from their bodies and hence, the apocalypse started and everywhere chaos took place. Mayaavi was a very cruel asura he first sucks children's souls in front of their parents because when parents see their children dying, they will cry and that would give him satisfaction.

Mayaavi looks like a big giant hybrid of a bull and a demon with 3 horns, 2 big large deadly teeth, and he was about 20 feet in height, weighed 400 kg (about 881.85 lb.), has red eyes and when he sucks human souls, body of humans becomes dark black and their eyes become white and mayaavi eats only raw flesh and he needs approximately 1000 cows or 500 elephants at one time.

Mayaavi's fear can be imagined that he has eaten his own parents when he was born because he was so hungry at that time, and he wanted only raw flesh.

Episode – 4 (TAPASYA OF VEERABHADRA)

The story shifts back to hritesh in Kudalasangama temple where he is asleep, and he gets a nightmare of asuras entering Vijayapua and killing his mother suddenly he wakes and sees a girl who is saying 'Don't worry you will be alright' and then, basavanna's rituals have been completed he is leaving for his village and he calls and whispers something in hritesh's ears and then, introduces that girl named 'Rati' to hritesh and tells him that anything if he needs she will take care as she also take cares of "Shivalinga" in this temple. Hritesh touches the feet of basavanna and takes his blessings and then, basavanna leaves.

Rati was such a simple girl with an adorable smile on her face, she was so happy taking care of Shivalinga in that temple. She tells hritesh that she always looks after Shivalinga. It is like being with her for a long time. She enjoys taking care of it.

Hritesh tells his story to Rati, and she felt very bad for him, but she tells him that everything will be alright. Then hritesh finds a peaceful spot near the temple where he starts his 'Tapasya' (deep meditation) in the form of a 'Samadi' state. Hritesh sits for days together in samadi state where nature tests his concentration by creating storms, sending snakes, tigers, and many animals to break his concentration but he keeps on meditating and then, he listens to his mother's voice saying that 'Open your eyes I am here!!' and hritesh suddenly opens his eyes and finds that there is no trace of his mother and then, he notices that it was a test created by nature and he failed. Hritesh then desperately sits on a rock near the temple.

Rati from far away notices that and asks him then, he says that 'My mother is in danger, and I am still working on my concentration' with tears in his eyes and rati tells him that 'You're making your mother as a weakness that's why you were unable to concentrate, make your mother as a strength and then, you can achieve anything' and this line hits hritesh's heart very bad and he wanted to hug rati but he doesn't do.

Again, hritesh sits for meditation for many days and this time also nature tests him by sending all different souls that hritesh was known previously and they were dead but now he was prepared, and he was not responding to any soul lastly his father's soul approaches him and talks 'Hritesh my son how are you?, I know you're struggling a lot to save your mother, but don't worry everything will be fine because Lord Shiva's blessing is with you, BE BRAVE LIKE VEERABHADRA' and he leaves.

Hritesh has tears in his eyes while listening to his father in the samadi (deep meditative) state. Then a heavy voice starts talking like ''OPEN YOUR EYES, I HAVE LISTENED YOUR PRAYERS" and hritesh starts opening his eyes but he is unable to open them because there was light which was so strong that it looks like the sun completely came down to the earth. Hritesh in his mind prays like "OM NAMAH SHIVAYA" and now he opens his eyes, and he was mesmerized because 'Lord Shiva' was himself standing opposite to him with a charm on his face.

Episode – 5 (THE FIRST TRANSITION OF VEERABHADRA)

Lord Shiva with a deep voice asks, 'I KNOW ABOUT YOU, BUT WHAT DO YOU WANT' and hritesh in joy of tears first takes blessing of lord shiva and then, in a confident voice hritesh asks, shiva that he wants his 'Ugra Roop' (angry form) named "VEERABHADRA" and by listening this lord shiva's happy facial expression changes to a bit normal and then, again shiva with a little smile asks, 'I WILL GIVE YOU MY ROOP BUT CAN YOU HANDLE?' and hritesh answers that he doesn't know about that but, present he badly need that powers to find out his mother. Lord Shiva grants his Veera Bhadra roop to hritesh and says that it's a dangerous roop that can't be easily handled because it's dead opposite to his humbleness. So, to control it you need to overcome your humbleness and the first transition is going to be very hard for him, and by saying this he leaves.

Hritesh then tries different methods like falling from a tree, getting beaten by different animals, and many more to achieve the first transition of his human form to Veera Bhadra form but he fails consistently. After some serious tries, he goes back to the temple with frustration and there he sees a temple fair where people are gathering and doing celebrations. Rati calls him and joins him in the celebrations. That day ends.

The next day, hritesh tells Rati that he is missing his mother a lot and he wants to check his village once she came back means then, he will get his mother. Rati agrees but with one condition that she will go with him. Hritesh refuses but Rati makes him agree and hence they leave for his village and in between forests they spend some time getting to know each other.

When hritesh and Rati enter Vijayapura, they see complete chaos where they see some homes being burnt, some dead bodies with dark color, and with white eyes laying down. Hritesh was shocked to see his village in this kind of state. Hritesh starts searching for his mother and goes to his house in that village. But hritesh sees a family who is getting hurt by an asura. Asura starts to eat a small girl child in front of their parents and the parents are frightened and they are screaming for someone to help them.

As soon as that asura takes that girl child and is about to start eating, the first transition of Veera Bhadra in hritesh starts. Hritesh eyes start becoming red, his body grows big with dark black color, and his body is getting hurt because of the cracking of his bones. His anger grew like a big mountain, and he screams and hits that asura's head with his hand, and the asura gets decapitated.

Everyone was shocked by seeing the Ugra Roop of Veerabhadra, but Veerabhadra's anger was so uncontrollable that he starts to kill the child which he saved, and he starts approaching girl in anger and that small girl child was so feared and hence, this episode ends here!!

Episode – 6 (REGRET OF VEERABHADRA)

When Veerabhadra approaches to kill that child then, suddenly Rati comes in between, and Veerabhadra's form starts to end, and he comes to a normal state. The hritesh observes that everyone is frightened by him, but Rati makes him feel comfortable and with regret in hritesh eyes he runs towards the forest.

Rati goes back to hritesh and asks him what happened, and he answers that he doesn't know what happened to him but when he was awake, he was killing that girl. Hritesh says to Rati that he heard these powers were deadly from his father's stories, but he doesn't know that it becomes uncontrollable, and tears start falling from his eyes. Rati hugs him and he says that he was killing a small child and cries hugging her. Rati says that you took those powers for your mother, and you wanted to save that child in the beginning but, later it went uncontrollable but it's not your fault don't worry. But hritesh feels guilty for himself for that incident.

Hritesh starts 'Tapasya' again to give his powers back to God and now he sits in the samadi state for months together but, he is unable to find God this time. Hritesh comes back to kudalasangama temple where Rati gives him food and hritesh in a sad mood tells Rati that he was unable to find God. Rati says that be patient everything will be alright and hritesh sleeps.

In the dream, hritesh starts getting nightmares of that incident in which he was about to kill that small girl child and suddenly he sees a white dimensional place in the dream which was something that hritesh was never sawed. The place is like the white 'Himalayas' with a waterfall and it was so peaceful that hritesh's mind was becoming so light. He goes forward and sees 'Lord Shiva' and he joins his hands and takes his blessings. Lord Shiva tells him that he was hearing his prayers, but he was a bit angry because hritesh was trying to kill that small child then he realized that the hritesh was so humble, but his powers made him to do cruel acts.

Hritesh tells lord shiva that he can't

bear this power so, asks lord shiva to take back his powers but lord shiva answers by saying that he can't take his powers back. Lord Shiva says that this power is a boon to him, and he needs to figure out how to make good use of it. Hritesh says that he is not ready for it now, but Shiva responds that no one is ready for anything we need to make ourselves ready for it. First, you need to overcome your weakness and that is your 'Humblenes' and then the dream closes and hritesh wakes up.

In the morning, hritesh shares his dream with Rati and Rati says that it is not just a dream it's a solution given by lord shiva to him. Hritesh asks Rati how he will become ready. and then, Rati replies that you need to work on your mind. Then they both hear people screaming and they both go behind those sounds, and they see an asura is creating chaos near that temple and they both got shocked because this temple so secure and even not known by Asuras.

Episode – 7 (VEERABHADRA GETTING READY)

Both Rati and hritesh were looking at that asura. It was different from the other asuras, and it was like a bull and has more powers than any other asuras. Rati gets a plan, and she says hritesh that this is the best opportunity to learn control of your powers. Hritesh asks what her plan is. And she responds to him by saying that he needs to fight that asura but hritesh asks in doubt that it is a different and dangerous asura, can I defeat it? Rati says that you can do anything but first, you need to believe in yourself.

Then, the ultimate battle between that asura named 'karkat' and Veera Bhadra takes place. Karkat was getting the upper hand in the beginning because it has deadly powers and starts hitting Veerabhadra very hard. Then, Veera Bhadra becomes helpless. Karkat says that he will beat his mother like he is beating Veerabhadra now and no one can do anything, by listening this inner hritesh's emotions become high and it reflects on Veerabhadra's expression and Veerabhadra becomes so angry and he opens his third eye from his forehead and burns karkat asura into ashes.

Rati was witnessing this battle and she becomes speechless by seeing the deadly powers of Veerabhadra and then he becomes normal into hritesh. Rati then, curious asks hritesh how he transformed himself into the human form back. Hritesh says that he remembered Rati's face when he killed karkat asura which triggered back his humanity through his humbleness. But Rati asks hritesh why me only, you can even imagine your mother also? Hritesh replies that he tried it in his first transition, but he became angrier because he was searching for his mother.

Hritesh tells Rati that she makes him so calm, that's why he tried remembering her and it worked. By hearing this Rati felt so overwhelmed and she says that she will be with him through his all ups and down and he doesn't need to worry by hearing this hritesh felt good and this can be imagined with a little smile and blush on his face.

Then they both start to plan things to get his mother back and they start searching vijayapura village first. They travel to Vijayapura from Kudala Sangama temple and in between they get lots of asuras now. Veerabhadra with his powers slaughters Asuras like hell. Veerabhadra's powers start to flex in a style. When Veerabhadra screams the asuras start to explode, when Veera Bhadra generated deadly 'Trishul' (trident) the asuras began to get slaughtered, and when Veerabhadra opened his third eye the asuras burnt into ashes.

Hritesh and Rati finally reach Vijayapura where they started to search for his mother and after getting different clues like Hritesh's mother's saree torn pieces, they see a village person running towards them and screaming. That person had a Sickle in his hand, and he was so furious, then Veerabhadra started to wake in Hritesh's body after seeing that person holding a sickle in his hand.

Episode – 8 (VEERABHADRA FINDING HIS PATH)

As soon as that person approaches Hritesh and Rati. The Veerabhadra starts to wake up but as the person comes close to them, Hritesh identifies that person, and the Veerabhadra in Hritesh's body becomes calm. That person was none other than 'Mahantesh' same village guy who met his family when their house was burned down by some goons. Hritesh curiously asks Mahantesh if he saw his mother. Mahantesh says that he hasn't seen his mother or brother since that day when they got lost. But many people say that they have seen your mother near the 'Kila Rai Pithora'. Then Hritesh asks what is Kila Rai Pithora and Mahantesh says I don't know that much but one 'Saint' is there named 'Allam Prabhu' who can help you.

Hritesh, Rati, and Mahantesh went to Allam Prabhu who was in a deep meditative state. As soon as Hritesh approaches Allam Prabhu to wake him up suddenly, Allam Prabhu says that 'I WAS WAITING FOR YOU VEERABHADRA' and Hritesh was shocked by hearing Veerabhadra name because apart from him and Rati no one knows about his powers. Hritesh asks the saint how he knows all this. Allam Prabhu tells him that he knows every possible present, future, and past. Hritesh asks that he is unable to find his mother so will you help him? Allam Prabhu answers that 'I WILL SHOW YOU THE PATH BUT YOU NEED TO WALK THROUGH THAT AND YOU WILL GET WHAT YOU WANTED'.

Hritesh asks how I can find my mother. Allam Prabhu answers that 'Kila Rai Pithora' and hritesh asks what that is. and Allama Prabhu answers that it is a fort built by the great king 'Prithviraj Chauhan', you just go there and you will get all your answers but always remember one thing there you will get multiple dangers but make your weakness as your strength, be prepared for that and go alone, no can bear such strong energy rather than you and by saying it saint 'Allama Prabhu' again goes to deep meditation. Hritesh takes the blessings of Allama Prabhu and leaves.

Hritesh convinces Rati to stay back in 'kudalasangama' and Mahantesh to take care of her and then he leaves. He transforms himself into Veerabhadra and with one step walk he reaches kila rai pothira where, he sees that the place is full of Asuras, and the 'Agni Kund' was set up for a Yagya. Then all the Asuras start attacking Veerabhadra then the best battle happens between Veerabhadra and all other Asuras. Veerabhadra starts beating the Asuras. Veerabhadra gives one punch then, ten asuras get impacted and die. He creates the deadly Trishuls (Tridents) and throws them over the asuras and the trishuls spin and will go in every direction and kill asuras and some trishuls have burning fire upon them which burnt the asuras into the ashes. Veerabhadra's scream creates a storm and asuras start flying away. Veerabhadra was furious while hitting the Asuras and Asuras were dying like peanuts. Then, the climate changes suddenly and the sky starts thundering and a fast dark flashlight appears in sky and Mayaavi the giant bull-human hybrid asura arrives and stares at Veerabhadra.

Episode – 9 (MAAYAVI V/S VEERABHADRA) PART – 1

Veerabhadra also starts staring furiously by looking at Mayaavi. Then, Mayaavi says in a demon voice 'Welcome Veerabhadra' I wasn't expecting that they will send you. You are a pest in front of me' and Veerabhadra asks 'No one, I came here for my mother just tell me where she is otherwise, bear my consequences' in a heavy and furious voice. Mayaavi answers 'Your mother is in hell'.

Mayaavi flies up and Veerabhadra jumps up and hence, the deadly battle of the ages starts between both of them. Mayaavi hits a strong punch to Veerabhadra's face and Veerabhadra falls and stands again and screams heavily. Mayaavi flees and falls at up to ten kilometers. Mayaavi orders the rushi which he captured before to start Yagya and tells Asuras to protect him and hence, the Yagya starts. Mayaavi flies above the sky to see Veerabhadra but Veerabhadra is already above him because he jumped before Mayaavi flies above the sky and hits him by creating a burning Trishul and mayaavi falls and gets burnt and injured.

Veerabhadra furiously comes down and jumps upon the chest of Mayaavi which creates a big explosion. Mayaavi goes deeper down the earth with a bleeding face, and he asks Asuras to help him. Then, asuras in millions start running towards Veerabhadra and Veerabhadra gets more furious and jumps and starts throwing them in the sky like a ball. Mayaavi screams and asks Rushi that does the Yagya has been completed and Rushi answers him by saying that without Mayaavi's blood, it can't be completed, and he needs Mayaavi's blood to give him all humans powers which were sucked by all the asuras, and he also says that all asuras have already put their blood in the 'Agni Kund'. Now he needs Mayaavi's blood to put those powers in him.

Veerabhadra kills the asuras which came towards him and now he starts moving towards Mayaavi. Veerabhadra jumps and lands in that explosion area where he sees his mother and she starts crying by seeing his appearance. She says, 'You have become a Monster my son' By hearing this Veerabhadra's humbleness triggers and he becomes Hritesh.

Hritesh also starts crying now and says that he was searching for her like anything and suddenly she stabbed him in his stomach with a deadly weapon. She says that he has become a monster and a monster could be dangerous for the entire humanity and she starts moving towards 'Agni Kund'. Hritesh remembers that his mother doesn't know that he got Veerabhadra powers and falls holding his stomach in heavy pain. Hritesh's mother goes near Agni Kund and drops her blood, and she changes her real form to Mayaavi. That was not his mother, he was Mayaavi who disguised himself to look like hritesh's mother. Mayaavi has powers like reading other's minds. So, he read the hritesh's mind and got to know that he was badly missing his mother. So, he played hritesh's mind to reach towards the Agni Kund to give his blood but now he also got to know that he can even trigger his humbleness.

Now, the Yagya completes and Mayaavi starts getting powers. He became big, his horns grew deadlier, and now he got his lost powers back making him more furious and dangerous.

Episode – 10 (MAYAAVI V/S VEERABHADRA) PART – 2

Mayaavi looks more dangerous now with the powers he got from the people's souls by completing Yagya. Hritesh is now fully unconscious, and, in his mind, he went to a place where he sees a dark place with feeble light in that world. He starts moving forward where it smells of stink. That place was like hell. Where the bodies of the people were lying down with white eyes everywhere. As hritesh starts moving forward he starts seeing a person who was his father 'Vijay'.

Vijay says, 'Come son, I think you have multiple questions to ask, go on', Hritesh asks 'Why you are here, and what is this place?', Vijay answers that 'This place is your fear and you think this place going to be like this in future, and you also think that I am your last hope'. Hritesh asks 'If you are my last hope then, what do you suggest me to do?', Vijay answers that by saying 'I can only show you the path but, you need to walk through it, for now, you need to wake and kill the mayaavi then, only you can able to find your mother and can get all your answers, go son go.....'

Hritesh wakes up and he listens that mayaavi laughing with a deadly voice saying, 'You gods are fools, I thought you might choose a dangerous person for this job, but you choose Hritesh for it, and he is a douche bag' and laughs heavily. Mayaavi again says that hritesh is such a fool that he even recognized mayaavi as his mother and Mayaavi says that he will marry his mother like a pest after killing hritesh and make babies of hybrid human-asuras.

By listening to this hritesh becomes furious and then, Veerabhadra erupts from his body and now the battle is fully charged up because mayaavi has got his powers back and Veerabhadra has a reason to fight. Veerabhadra gives a deadly punch to mayaavi but now maayavi was also strong, so he defends and hits him back which makes Veerabhadra fall. Veerabhadra creates burning trishuls and hits them to mayaavi then, mayaavi falls with a burning body but he heals himself.

Mayaavi flies up above the sky and by seeing that Veerabhadra jumps by tapping a single foot and he reaches above the earth in space and enters the earth like a burning asteroid and throws mayaavi down which creates an impact on mayaavi. hence, we can imagine the best hand to hand fight where mayaavi is giving the punches and Veerabhadra defending and Veerabhadra giving punches and Mayaavi defending them. Veerabhadra Jumps and screams which makes Mayaavi to get injured.

Mayaavi again disguises himself as his mother and it triggers a bit in veerabhadra and mayaavi hits a big punch which makes Veerabhadra to fall heavily, and he becomes little injured. He hears a voice in himself which was rati's . Rati says 'Get up hritesh you must come back soon because I am waiting for you, you are everything to me, just believe your instincts and make your weakness as your strength' - by listening this hritesh gets control over Veerabhadra and they both become one. Veerabhadra thinks and sees that Mayaavi's horn was generating powers so, Veerabhadra opens his deadly third eye and produces enormous energy which makes Mayaavi weak, and Veerabhadra jumps upon his back and breaks his horns and Mayaavi explodes like a nuclear bomb.

Episode – 11 (VEERABHADRA UNVEILING THE TRUTH)

Mayaavi dies with a big explosion which creates an impact on the land and then suddenly hritesh goes into a world where he sees lines, arrows, and text-like structures. Hritesh sees hollow objects everywhere and that land was shining like a star with dark Outerspace. Hritesh starts moving forward and he sees 'Trimurtis' (The three main gods in Hinduism) - Lord Brahma - (The Creator), Lord Vishnu - (The Preserver), and The God's god Lord Shiva himself - (The Destroyer) standing in front of him and seeing that hritesh was speechless and he asks, 'have I died?'.

Lord Shiva with a smile says, 'No you haven't' and hritesh asks 'What is this place?' Shiva answers everything now that 'This place is the 16th dimension where we live which has NO ADI AND NO ANTYA - which means it doesn't have a starting or ending it is just neutral. The humans can't see this place so, I was talking through you from dreams and with other human forms, and you came now physically here because when mayaavi died it generated a big explosion and opened a WARM HOLE, so you came here through that.

Hritesh asks 'If Mayaavi died then, where is my mother, Saint Allam Prabhu said I will get all my answers by coming here but I think he was lying' saying sadly. Lord Shiva says, 'How can he be wrong because it was me the whole time'. Hritesh shockingly asks 'How?'. Lord Shiva answers 'We made you to be born on this earth, see we knew that Mayaavi was a dangerous asura in hell and he will do anything to get the three worlds (Heaven, hell, and Earth) so when we three were thinking what to do. Your mother was praying for a child at that time so, so I thought I needed to be born on earth, I cut and threw my hair on the earth, and when your mother touched that she became pregnant and gave birth to you. In the beginning, we were afraid that how you will become in the future because mayaavi was also created for some cause but later, he became so violent that even the gods were afraid of him. But later, we understood that you will be the right person to restrict mayaavi because you have Humbleness as your strength and weakness which made us feel comfortable.

Hritesh now asks, 'You said you were there with me for the whole time, how?' Lord Shiva answers 'Not just me but Lord Vishnu was Mahantesh - the village guy who protected your mother, Lord Brahma was that Rushi who have been captured by Mayaavi, and the last me Lord Shiva himself who took lots of forms to show you the path - I became Basavanna who whispered in your ears and said that 'Become Veerabhadra' and showed your path', I became that 'Aghori' near that waterfall and that tiger was Goddess Parvati's vahana which made you go kudalasangamma temple where you needed your answers, I became saint Allama Prabhu and showed you the path. I came in as your father to help in your dreams. Even Nandi transformed as a karkat Asura, in the beginning, to help you get trained. And the best part was Goddess Parvati made 'Rati' to be born, who always guided you and she will be there with you throughout her life, take care of her. You were born with my blessings and Rati was born by goddess Parvati's blessings So, it was all for a cause. We hope you know every truth now'.

Hritesh touches and takes the blessing of the Tri-murtis and thanks them for guiding him and they bless him that he will be 'IMMORTAL' and no 'Astras (Weapons) and Asuras can't harm him.

POST CREDIT SCENE

Hritesh comes back to the real world and every soul which were captured by Mayaavi were started to go inside every people's body making them alive again. Hritesh goes back to Vijayapura where he finds his mother and hugs her, and he also sees Rati which makes him immensely happy.

Now Rati and hritesh both are sitting together in the moonlight and hritesh explains everything that happened to him. They both look into their eyes and slowly they both hold hands in a loving manner, and they promise that they will be together like 'Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati', and they will protect each other whatever situation they might be in.

Now, the scene shifts to a dark world where hritesh's brother named 'Tarak' who was been kidnapped by a deadly asura 'RAKTABHEEJ-ASURA' who says 'Mayaavi you lost your life for our asuras sake, but I will take revenge back from the gods and make sure that your death will be worthwhile' and laughssssssssss.

AUTHOR'S NOTE

I hope you enjoyed reading my story 'VEERABHADRA' which was written with passion and love.

Indian mythology always excites me and gives me hope and happiness. Whenever I read stories about it, I feel happy and proud of our Indian culture. I grew up listening to some of those stories and this story is more fictional and I took some aspects from our real mythology and made my own story. So, if anyone gets offended, please forgive me, and if you want to write anything or want to show some love towards the novel. You can reach me at hriteshbidari5@gmail.com email id. Thank you!
