Chapter One : The kali purush inside

As we immerse ourselves in the captivating web series "Asur," a mesmerising narrative unfolds a tapestry woven with threads of crime, mythology, and forensic science. It delves into the intricate complexities of tracking a serial killer whose macabre inspiration stems from ancient Hindu mythology. The series not only grips us with its thrilling crime drama but also beckons us to ponder the profound philosophical questions about morality and the delicate balance between good and evil.


Unveiling the Cosmic Ages


In Hinduism, the cosmic ages unfold in a cyclical rhythm—Satya, Treta, Dwapar, and Kalyug. The latter, marked by moral and spiritual decline, introduces us to the formidable force known as Kali. This cosmic deity, synonymous with the age of discord and decay, casts a shadow on humanity during the Kali Yuga. It's a time when, according to Hindu mythology, Lord Kalki is prophesied to emerge as the avatar of Lord Vishnu, destined to annihilate Kali Purusha and bring an end to the Kali Yuga.


The Malevolent Influence Unleashed


Kali Purusha, described as an ominous entity with an ugly black form, large mouth, and colossal presence, wreaks havoc on the lives of mortals. In the Kalki Purana, tales of adversity, reminiscent of the challenges faced by King Nala and the Pandavas, unfold under Kali Purusha's malevolent influence.


The Contemporary Manifestation


In the present era, the symbolic significance of Kali Purush and Kalki Devta reflects internal struggles within individuals. Disturbing societal trends, ranging from the loss of innocence among children to widespread addiction, echo the presence of metaphorical Kali Purush. The disheartening reality of eroding moral boundaries and societal norms being challenged calls for introspection.


Facing the Dark Forces Within


Are you, like Kali Purush, selfish, desiring control, and prioritising personal gain over empathy? Do you ignore the problems of others, manipulate friendships for personal benefit, and neglect spiritual practices? If so, you may be succumbing to a mindset akin to the metaphorical Kali Purush.


The Antidote: A Path of Devotion


However, every disease has a cure waiting to be discovered. Embracing the path of devotion (Bhakti) and engaging in charitable acts create a protective barrier against the negative influences of Kali Purusha. The continuous chanting of mantras and divine names becomes a powerful tool, while acts of charity contribute to alleviating the sufferings caused by this malevolent force.


Striving for Divine Blessings


By respecting the elderly, maintaining a gentle demeanour, and refraining from anger, even in challenging situations, we can navigate the challenges posed by the Kali Yuga. Seeking divine mercy through virtuous actions, let us strive to lead lives filled with goodness and become recipients of divine blessings.


As we embark on this exploration of the Kali Purush within, may our journey be one of self-discovery and transformation, transcending the darkness within ourselves to embrace the light of divine blessings.
