Devika stood amidst the celestial garden, her eyes adjusting to the surreal surroundings that felt like a dream and reality intertwined. The playful banter of Mandini and the focused instructions of Charani and Vidyata had filled her days with discovery, but the announcement of two more Yojinis made her curious and slightly nervous.
The Mysterious Arrival
The garden shimmered as two new figures emerged, their presence commanding attention.
First Yojini: Cloaked in flowing black robes, her face was partially obscured by a soft fabric that covered her eyes. Her alabaster skin, gleaming like fresh milk, seemed to glow with an otherworldly aura. She moved with an ethereal grace, her voice echoing like whispers across time.
"I am Kaivalya," she introduced, her tone carrying infinite patience. "I govern the flow of time and space, shaping reality to nurture growth. Devika, your training begins in realms beyond the limitations of this plane."
Second Yojini: Standing next to Kaivalya was a stark contrast—a muscular, tan-skinned Yojini with a strong, tomboyish demeanor. She crossed her arms, her golden bangles clinking softly. Her piercing eyes, framed by short, slightly messy hair, held Devika in a steady gaze.
"And I'm Sharvani," she said with a confident smirk. "I'm here to whip your body and mind into shape. By the time I'm done, even mountains will bow to your strength."
Mandini leaned closer to Devika and whispered dramatically, "She's intense, but don't worry. She's secretly a softie!"
Sharvani flicked Mandini's ear. "I heard that."
The Creation of the Training Realm
Kaivalya stepped forward, raising her hands gracefully. A shimmering, translucent orb began to form around them, pulsating with light.
"In this realm," she explained, "time flows differently. A single day outside will equal one year within. You will have the opportunity to hone your skills without losing precious moments in the mortal world."
The orb expanded, enveloping the garden. Inside, the landscape transformed into an endless horizon of shifting colors, where time and space seemed to ripple like waves.
"Whoa!" Devika exclaimed, spinning around to take in the surreal environment. "This is incredible."
Kaivalya nodded. "You will adapt. But remember, this realm tests more than just your abilities. It challenges your perception of existence."
Sharvani's Preparations
Sharvani clapped her hands, snapping Devika's attention back. "Alright, princess, enough gawking. Time to get moving. First, we strengthen your core—both body and mind. Only then can you withstand the rigorous training Maa Parvati and Lord Shiva have planned for you."
She led Devika to a serene clearing filled with strange, glowing plants. "Sit," Sharvani commanded.
Devika obeyed, crossing her legs. Sharvani circled her like a hawk.
"You've awakened your Kundalini," Sharvani began, "but that's only the start. Your body must become a vessel capable of holding divine energy without breaking." She suddenly dropped into a perfect plank position, her muscles taut. "Follow me."
Devika hesitated but mimicked the pose. Sharvani's corrections were immediate and relentless. "No slouching! Engage your core. Imagine you're balancing the universe on your back."
Mandini's Comedic Interruption
Midway through the grueling exercises, Mandini appeared with a tray of glowing fruits. "Snack break?" she offered cheerily.
Sharvani groaned. "Mandini, this is serious."
"Exactly! Serious training needs serious fuel." Mandini tossed a fruit toward Devika, who caught it gratefully.
Kaivalya, observing from a distance, added softly, "The fruit nourishes not just the body but the spirit. A balanced mind begins with a balanced energy."
Sharvani sighed but allowed the break, muttering under her breath, "Fine. But don't get used to these interruptions."
The Challenge of Time
As days within the realm turned into weeks, Devika began to notice subtle changes. Her body grew stronger under Sharvani's guidance, her movements more precise. Kaivalya's lessons, though abstract, sharpened her awareness of the flow of energy and time.
During one session, Kaivalya asked, "Do you feel it, Devika? The rhythm of existence?"
Devika paused, closing her eyes. Slowly, she nodded. "It's... like a current. Constant, yet shifting."
Kaivalya smiled faintly. "Good. You're beginning to understand. The cosmos is a symphony, and you must learn to play your part."
Bonds and Growth
Devika's days were filled with intensity, but the Yojinis' contrasting personalities kept her spirits high. Sharvani's sternness was balanced by Mandini's playful antics, while Vidyata and Charani offered encouragement and wisdom.
Even Kaivalya, with her serene demeanor, shared moments of quiet humor. When Devika once tripped during a time-flow exercise, Kaivalya remarked dryly, "Gravity always wins."
The End of the First Phase
As their time in the realm neared its end, Sharvani observed Devika with a proud glint in her eye. "You're stronger than I expected," she admitted. "But this is just the beginning."
Kaivalya stepped forward, her presence as commanding as ever. "Your journey is far from over, Devika. You've begun to unlock your potential, but the path ahead will demand even greater resolve."
Devika nodded, determination shining in her eyes. "I'm ready."
Sharvani grinned. "Good. Because once Shiva and Maa Parvati return, things will get real."
Mandini chimed in, waving a fist dramatically. "And we'll be here, cheering—or, you know, yelling—at you every step of the way!"
Devika couldn't help but laugh, feeling a newfound strength and confidence in her heart. As the orb began to dissolve, signaling their return to the celestial garden, she braced herself for whatever lay ahead.

Chapter 16: The Art of Discipline and the Power Within
Growth Without Bulk
Three months had passed within Kaivalya's temporal realm, yet Devika's body retained its lithe and feminine form. Despite Sharvani's grueling training, there wasn't even a hint of muscular bulk on Devika. However, her strength, endurance, and agility had increased to superhuman levels. Sharvani observed this phenomenon with a mix of curiosity and pride.
"Your body doesn't show it," Sharvani said, tapping Devika's arm lightly, "but you're far stronger than you look. A rare gift, Devika. Most warriors carry their strength visibly. Yours lies beneath the surface—a quiet storm."
Devika, drenched in sweat, rolled her eyes. "If it's a storm, it feels more like a hurricane during your training!"
Sharvani smirked. "Good. Then I'm doing my job."
Learning the Martial Arts of Sanatan Dharma
Sharvani had pushed Devika into mastering the ancient and intricate martial arts of Sanatan Dharma. Each form demanded not just physical prowess but also spiritual alignment and discipline.
Kalaripayattu: Known as the mother of all martial arts, Kalaripayattu was the first discipline Devika studied. Through fluid movements, powerful strikes, and synchronized breathing, Devika learned to connect her body and mind. Sharvani introduced her to dynamic kicks and techniques using sticks and swords.
"Kalaripayattu is about grace," Sharvani explained. "Power without grace is chaos."
Malla Yuddha: This ancient form of wrestling was a test of strength and tactics. Sharvani demonstrated techniques by flipping Mandini over her shoulder in a flash, leaving the airhead Yojini to flail dramatically on the ground.
"Always think two moves ahead," Sharvani instructed, as Devika grappled with Charani in practice. "The body is a weapon, but the mind is the true battlefield."
Dhanurveda: The ancient art of archery was next. Devika was taught to steady her breath and focus her energy on a single point. Each arrow she released seemed to carry her intent, striking true every time.
"Your target isn't just the physical object," Kaivalya added, watching from the sidelines. "It's the energy surrounding it."
Silambam: A stick-based martial art that required speed and precision. Devika trained with a long staff, sparring against Sharvani, who twirled her staff effortlessly.
"Speed comes from balance," Sharvani said. "You're fast, but balance your core, and you'll become unstoppable."
A Glimpse of Sharvani's Power
One day, during an intense sparring session, Devika asked, "Sharvani, do you ever use your full strength?"
Sharvani paused, a rare moment of hesitation crossing her face. "You're not ready to see that."
Devika pouted. "Just a little demonstration?"
Mandini, lounging nearby, chimed in, "Come on, Sharvani. Show us the big guns!"
With a sigh, Sharvani stepped forward, her muscles visibly tensing. She grabbed a nearby boulder the size of a house and threw it into the sky with effortless grace. As it reached its apex, she leapt after it, striking it with a single finger. The boulder shattered into a thousand glittering pieces that rained down like stars.
Devika stared, slack-jawed. "That was only a fraction of your strength?"
Sharvani smirked. "Less than one percent, actually. And no, you don't get to spar with me at full strength unless you're really ready."
Kaivalya's Timeless Wisdom
Kaivalya, though less physically involved, guided Devika through meditative practices to align her spiritual energy with the flow of time and space.
"Strength and skill are important," Kaivalya said one evening, her voice calm and steady, "but understanding the rhythm of existence is what separates a warrior from a master."
She taught Devika to meditate while manipulating the flow of time. In one exercise, Devika moved through a slowed-down reality, catching falling leaves before they hit the ground. In another, she lived an entire year in a single moment, gaining profound insight into the fleeting nature of life.
The Bonds of Training
The months within the realm brought the group closer together. Sharvani's strictness was tempered by Mandini's playful interruptions, while Vidyata and Charani offered steady encouragement.
One evening, as Devika sat by a glowing stream, Sharvani approached with a rare smile. "You've come far, Devika. Your strength isn't just physical. It's in your spirit."
Devika smiled back, feeling a deep sense of accomplishment.
Mandini popped up behind them, holding two glowing fruits. "Time to celebrate! First round's on me!"
Sharvani groaned. "Mandini, you didn't even do anything today."
Kaivalya, observing from a distance, chuckled softly. "Balance in all things, even in humor," she murmured.
Preparing for the Next Phase
As their time in the realm drew to a close, Devika felt a newfound confidence in her abilities. Yet she knew the path ahead would only grow more challenging.
Sharvani clapped her on the back. "Next up? Preparing for divine combat. You think you've seen tough? You haven't seen anything yet."
Devika grinned, determination shining in her eyes. "I'm ready."
The group stepped out of the shimmering realm, ready to face whatever trials awaited them in the celestial world.

Chapter 17: Mastering the Warrior Arts
Kalaripayattu: The Grace of Battle
The training began with Kalaripayattu, the ancient martial art known as the foundation of many combat systems. Sharvani, with her usual no-nonsense demeanor, stood tall in the open field of Kaivalya's timeless realm. She gestured for Devika to follow her movements.
"Kalaripayattu is not just about fighting," Sharvani began. "It's about understanding your body, your energy, and your connection to the Earth. Every step is a conversation with the ground beneath you. Let's begin."
Devika mimicked Sharvani's fluid movements, attempting to flow like water. Sharvani demonstrated the Meipayattu (body conditioning exercises), showcasing a series of graceful but powerful stances and stretches. Each movement demanded balance, flexibility, and strength.
"Bend your knees more," Sharvani instructed. "Imagine your legs as roots digging into the ground."
Devika tried, wobbling slightly as she transitioned into a low stance. Suddenly, Mandini popped up beside her with a cheeky grin.
"Watch out, Devika! If you go any lower, you might sprout roots and turn into a tree!" Mandini teased, earning a collective groan from the other Yojinis.
Sharvani rolled her eyes. "Mandini, unless you're here to train, stop distracting her."
"Fine, fine," Mandini pouted, retreating to sit under a nearby tree.
Mastering Animal Movements
Sharvani then taught Devika the animal-based movements of Kalaripayattu: the lion, elephant, and snake. Each movement required precision and focus.
"The lion move is about power," Sharvani explained. "Feel the ground beneath your palms, and leap with the intent of striking fear into your opponent."
Devika crouched low, her hands and feet planted firmly. She pounced forward, imitating Sharvani's movements. The first attempt was clumsy, but with repeated practice, her jumps became smoother and more confident.
"Not bad," Sharvani said with a rare nod of approval. "Now, try the snake."
The snake movements emphasized flexibility and stealth. Devika slithered across the ground, her body twisting and turning in fluid motion. Mandini, of course, couldn't resist commenting.
"Careful, Devika. You're starting to look like a very fashionable earthworm!" Mandini quipped, earning a playful flick on the forehead from Vidyata.
"Enough, Mandini," Vidyata said, exasperated. "Let her focus."
Malla Yuddha: The Dance of Grappling
After three months of Kalaripayattu, Sharvani shifted Devika's focus to Malla Yuddha, the ancient art of grappling and wrestling. This art required not only physical strength but also strategic thinking.
Sharvani demonstrated a takedown move on Charani, who volunteered for the demonstration. In a flash, Sharvani flipped Charani over her shoulder and pinned her to the ground.
"It's about leverage," Sharvani explained, helping Charani up. "Size doesn't matter if you know where to apply pressure."
Devika practiced the moves, sparring with Vidyata first. She quickly learned that her smaller frame gave her an advantage in speed and agility. With each session, she became more adept at predicting her opponent's movements.
During one session, Mandini decided to join in, despite having no knowledge of Malla Yuddha. She charged at Devika with exaggerated enthusiasm, only to trip over her own feet and land flat on her face.
"Are you wrestling the ground now, Mandini?" Charani teased, earning laughter from everyone.
Sharvani's Demonstration of Strength
To inspire Devika, Sharvani occasionally showcased her own skills. One day, she demonstrated a powerful throw, launching a boulder into the air and catching it effortlessly.
"See, Devika?" Sharvani said, placing the boulder down gently. "It's not about brute force. It's about using your opponent's energy against them."
Devika tried to replicate the move on a smaller scale, flipping Charani onto a soft mat. Charani groaned but gave her a thumbs-up. "You're getting there, Devika!"
Comedy in the Chaos
Amid the intense training, the Yojinis provided plenty of comic relief. Kaivalya occasionally froze time around Mandini just to stop her from interrupting training sessions. Mandini would freeze mid-sentence, only to unfreeze moments later, continuing her jokes as if nothing had happened.
One evening, as Devika practiced her stances, Mandini sneaked up behind her with a stick, pretending to spar. Devika, sensing the playful ambush, flipped Mandini over her shoulder with a perfect Malla Yuddha move.
Mandini landed on a pile of hay and groaned dramatically. "I was just trying to make things fun! No need to break my bones!"
Vidyata smirked. "You're fine. Maybe next time, you'll think twice before bothering a warrior-in-training."
The Bonds of Training
As the months passed, Devika's bond with the Yojinis deepened. Sharvani's tough-love approach pushed her to her limits, while the others provided emotional support and comic relief.
One evening, as they gathered around a glowing fire, Sharvani placed a hand on Devika's shoulder. "You've come far, Devika. But remember, strength is not just in your body. It's in your heart and spirit."
Devika smiled, feeling a sense of accomplishment and gratitude. "Thank you, Sharvani. I couldn't have done it without all of you."
Mandini, munching on a fruit, added, "And don't forget my amazing motivational speeches!"
"Motivational?" Vidyata said, raising an eyebrow. "More like distracting."
The group burst into laughter, the sound echoing through Kaivalya's timeless realm. Devika felt a renewed sense of purpose, ready to face whatever challenges lay ahead.
