    A round table. 5 poets. 1 teacher. May the muses be ever in your favour. Samay hates any kind of disruption in his life. He hates being curious about things because then he loses all common sense and has to sate his curiosity. But he can't stop himself from being curious about Romi, the girl who conducts the weekly poetry sessions which Samay (forcibly) participates in. She's intelligent, yes. She knows how poetry works, sure. But she is so guarded, and that, Samay can't tolerate. Kiara is painfully shy. Bullied often as a kid, she grows up keeping her thoughts and ideas to herself, and occasionally pouring them in a sketch book or a notebook. Creativity takes over and she realises she writes poetry quite well. However, when her cousin Sarah, invites her to join a poetry group that meets weekly, Kiara must decide whether she really wants to put herself out there, in the open. Rishi is easy going and uncomplicated. He enjoys a good poem thanks to his best friend, Kabir. Kabir harbours a massive crush on Sarah so when she invites him to weekly poetry gatherings, Kabir decides to drag Rishi in. Rishi meets Kiara, the shy girl. He has made it a rule to avoid all kinds of dramas and complications, yet he feels compelled to solve the complex puzzle that is Kiara. What unites all these very different, very colourful people? Poetry, of course. The magic of words and verses draws in Kabir (a lawyer and volunteer with a heart of gold), Sarah (the girl with spunk), Samay (Mr. Grouch), Rishi, Kiara, and of course, the person who leads them to the wonderful world of poetry - Romi.

    Addeline Meyer is a girl who doesn't believe in many things, including soulmates. Her skepticism, as justified as it might be, makes her ignore even the proven facts of science. She doesn't believe in connections bound by "fate". Then she meets Maya Collins in the local art museum she visits every week and finally sees the same piece of art she's seen every week for the past three years in a different light. Maya Collins, she learned very quickly, was an audacious, foolhardy, hopeless romantic. Yet despite that, she still finds herself being dragged around by her complete opposite.

    This book aims to help people with self-growth and to help the world to see that there is something beyond us. Call it Jesus, Buddha, Universe... Whatever. Call it what you want. For skeptical people this may seem like a phantasy, Wonderland, but the truth is that there is magic all around us. We all are connected to one another. Magical, isn't it? Control your ego and just practice mindfulness with this book to appreciate the magic of life. I really hope you can see God in every aspect of your life and I hope this book can help you appreciate it. If you do something to others, someone else will do the same to you eventually. Not in the current moment, but eventually. Everything is paid off. There's not any empirical evidence, just personal stories that are true. Meanwhile, love yourself and stop being skeptical about things in life. No one knows what can happen, but we get some hints that God leaves us. So beware of signs!

    DISCLAIMER - This is not a traditional narrative. The narrative structure tilts toward documentary/archive file-style storytelling but a very informal epistolary. The following are symbolic accounts recording ideas as if they were things-and deeper or vast than that, an eldritch. Three ancient metaphysical entities: Law, Power, and Void are symbolic forces that shaped narrative and existence but primarily, meta. The root forces that sculpt the very idea of meta itself. These entries are intended to enlighten, disrupt perception, and survey what exists outside of conventional storytelling.

An engaging narrative that explores mystery, transcendence, and the interplay between the material and the supernatural world.
