'The Horned God Chronicles' is a project taken up by the author to look deeper into history and mythology in a quest to understand the harmonic relationship between Society and Mother Nature.
This is the first book to openly point out how SHIVA WAS ADOPTED INTO HINDUISM DUE TO POLITICAL REASONS and was initially a God of the aboriginal tribes of India. The aboriginal tribes were far more civilized and managed than those who called themselves Aryans. Indra's political shrewdness wiped out a whole civilization to make sure that the aboriginal tribes remain subjugated even centuries later. This was done overtime by establishing a strict caste system.
In the first book you will find some strings of thoughts although random but honest insights into the world-around-us and the universe-inside-us. These thoughts are some of the cookies that will be relished by your mind provided your mind knows to eat. Here you will get food for thought.
I don't guarantee that you will like the taste because your mind may be a better cook than mine, but then you are always free to write to me at rudra@thehornedgod.com so that I can improve my writing skills.
In this book, I present to you the struggles of aboriginal tribes of Indian subcontinent during the Aryan Invasion. I would like to clarify that I am not saying that Aryan Invasion was a West to East movement. It could have been a wave of people from east that might have moved towards Europe.
What we know for sure is that there lay a magnificent civilization, which we now call the Indus Valley Civilization, and it was way advanced than any other part of the world in Ancient times.
We also know that there was a sudden end to it. But there are a long unknown parts in it. I have tried to bridge the unknown realm with the known realm. In this book, I take you on a fantasy ride through the daily lives of the people of World's oldest Civilization, which has also provided evidences that hint towards existence of something close to democracy.
I bring to you the beginnings of a long struggle and competition between Brute Force, Rational thinking, Beliefs, Faiths and Blind Faith. I have deliberately kept it short as it will be serving as the platform for the thoughts flowing in my mind.
