The book takes you on a journey about the legends that surround the twelve sacred shrines of Lord Shiva, known as the Jyotirlingas, scattered across India. Each Jyotirlinga is believed to have manifested from a divine column of light, representing Shiva’s infinite power and presence. The stories behind these holy sites are deeply rooted in ancient scriptures and highlight Shiva’s role as both a fierce protector and a compassionate deity. From the tale of Bhimashankar emerging to destroy a demon threatening the gods, to the legend of Trimbakeshwar associated with the origin of the holy river Godavari, each narrative reveals a unique aspect of Shiva’s divine intervention in times of cosmic crisis. These myths not only emphasize the spiritual power of the Jyotirlingas but also celebrate the profound devotion of sages, kings, and devotees whose faith shaped the legacy of these eternal flame-like shrines.

Fanny Price is ten years old when she is removed from the poverty of her parents’ house and sent to live with her aunt and her rich cousins at Mansfield Park. Never allowed to forget her humble origins, Fanny grows up in the Mansfield household with no allies except for Edmund, her aunt’s youngest son and even though she comes to possess that rare beauty which is neither vain nor weak, grounded as it is in astuteness and intelligence, she is never loved nor acknowledged by those in Mansfield Park. When the Crawford brother and sister duo arrive from London, however, to take up residence in the neighbourhood, they set in motion a series of romantic engagements within the Mansfield mansion that lead to scandal, heartbreak and much disrepute. And in the midst of everything must stand Fanny, protecting herself and all that she holds dear, from the wily schemes of Henry Crawford who is more than a bit of a rogue, even as she guards her heart for Edmund.
