BOOK REVIEW: Purgatory Voyage: encountering life after death

 



Author: Adarsh Khare

Have you ever wondered what lies beyond the realm of the living?
Adarsh Khare's " Purgatory Voyage: Encountering Life After Death " is an enthralling journey that bridges mythology, ancient Indian scriptures, and the afterlife.
Set against the backdrop of 925 AD in Bharmaur, Himachal Pradesh, the novel explores the concept of experiencing life after death through the eyes of Kalidas, a villager from Bundelkhand. The narrative begins with the intriguing premise of the purgatory voyage—a tunnel through which individuals could experience the afterlife for 12 days. Kalidas not only embarks on this voyage but also remarkably recalls his encounters in the afterlife, a feat previously unheard of. His vivid recounting of these experiences to the King of Bundelkhand sets the stage for a captivating tale that weaves together mythology, beliefs, and folklore.

The illustrations within the book add an engaging layer, making the afterlife realms of Yam City, hells, and heavens come alive. The novel not only delves into the torments and punitive actions in hell but also explores the splendors and rewards in heaven, offering a balanced portrayal of the consequences of one’s deeds.

This book is a must-read for those intrigued by mythology, the afterlife, and Indian cultural heritage. The author's ability to sustain the reader's curiosity and lead them through the emotional and spiritual upheavals of Kalidas' journey is a testament to his storytelling prowess.
