JAMBUDVIPA-The drift of Bodhidharma by Arpit Bharat
4.0
Set in Ancient India, this is a story of a warrior prince Yashodhamman and his development to make him a better ruler so he can safeguard his kingdom from the unfavorable. Because there is going to be a conflict, Bodhidharma, the cloud rider, is summoned to train the prince for combat.
There is also the story of Vasantsena, running parallel here. She was saved from the dreadful social horror known as "sati" by Bodhidharma. Her transformation forms a greater part of the novel.
The writing style perfectly supports the plot with rich descriptions of the lands of the ancient times. The novel is spiritual in many aspects.
The book has interesting rituals and training sessions.
The plot moves at a steady, but somehow slow pace, which requires PATIENCE. And I also felt that the narrative was slightly repetitive in some places.
If you like mythology, this is a great addition to your shelf.
This work is an evidence of Author's deep research and dedication.
