The Yaksha's Quest

di Chinmoy Mukherjee (Autore)

Chinmoy Mukherjee, 2025

In the timeless expanse of ancient India, where the veil between worlds was thin and the air hummed with spiritual power, lived a host of beings beyond mortal ken. Among them were the Yakshas—elemental spirits of the earth and water, guardians of nature's hidden treasures. They were ancient, curious, and possessed of a sight that could perceive the subtle energies of the world. This is the story of one such Yaksha. It was not driven by a lust for power or a desire for celestial riches, but by a thirst far more profound: a thirst for knowledge. It observed the world of men, their triumphs and follies, their love and their wars, and saw that the wisest among them, the great Rishis, held keys to understanding the very fabric of existence. These sages, through lifetimes of austerity, devotion, and inquiry, had become living vessels of dharma, each a unique facet of a boundless diamond of truth. The Yaksha resolved to undertake a great pilgrimage. It would travel the length and breadth of the land, from the serene ashrams on the banks of the Saraswati to the fiery hermitages in the dense southern forests, from the courts of philosopher-kings to the lonely mountain peaks of divine avatars. To each of these great souls, it would pose the most fundamental questions it could conceive: What is the nature of a good life? What is truth? What is the path out of sorrow?
