"We tried to walk the Eightfold Path to renounce the world. But when the lotuses bloomed... love carved a ninth." Rebecca "Becky" Patricia Armstrong is a free spirit caught between two worlds: the modern life she's always known and the silent, sacred grounds of a distant mountain temple. Seeking clarity, she finds herself drawn to Maechi Sudhammabusaba (Freen), a woman whose serene composure hides an ocean of unsaid depth. In a world defined by discipline and renunciation, can two hearts find harmony, or will their forbidden connection shatter the peace they both seek? A slow-burn spiritual journey of growth, faith, and the kind of love that defies the stillness. ~ A FREENBECKY FANFICTION ~ ─── 📌 Disclaimer: This is a work of fanfiction using the names and likenesses of public figures in an entirely fictional, Alternate Universe (AU) setting.

For eighteen months, Jyothsna has been missing. There are no phone records, no ransom demand, and no clear explanation of what happened after she was last seen. Her disappearance becomes the beginning of a case that reaches far beyond a missing-person investigation. When a newly created state investigative agency takes over controversial cases in Kerala, an unlikely police officer is pushed into the center of the investigation. What begins as a search for a missing woman soon leads to a trail of ancient Buddhist symbols, forgotten archaeological sites, mysterious pearls, and a secret doctrine built around eight sacred virtues. As the investigators move deeper into the past, they discover that the clues have been carefully preserved for centuries-and that someone in the present is determined to complete what was started long ago. From Kerala to the hidden remnants of ancient India, the investigation becomes a race against time. Some secrets are buried. Others are waiting to be reborn.

'The Western society is built on machines. You live with them and even within them. And among them, too. Don't tell me that your environment has no impact on your mind. It surely does...' ~~~~~~~ 'Imagine that you are a teacher. Imagine that in your class, there are three or four lads who want to read Shakespeare or Goethe. Imagine that other students have no wish to read these authors. So what will you do if you are a "democratic" teacher? You will let your students decide what they wish to study. No Shakespeare, no Goethe, to be sure...' ~~~~~~~ So states Khenpo Kyosang Rinpoche, an admired Buddhist lama, in SNOW LION MEETS EUROPE. Through a series of lectures, given to a mostly German audience, SNOW LION gently but firmly confronts the vagaries and inconsistencies of Western culture from an Eastern perspective. The result is a highly readable book that is provocative, humorous, and insightful. ~~~~~~~ This free edition includes no additional materials.

Flashing lights. That's all he could see: the pulsating strobe of a white brightness blinding him from the indistinguishable scenario playing out around him. He could not feel. Not the cool, autumn breeze, not the fog-like droplets of British showers, nothing. He couldn't hear anything. Maybe a dull thumping deep within, but nothing recognizable. Attempting to speak, he opened his mouth, trying to form words. He couldn't tell whether he was making any sound, letting out any kind of sign that he was distressed, but he knew it was worth a shot. As he began to fixate on his disabilities, he began to panic, and that's when it all went black. That is, also, where the story begins. // previously called Nirvana //
