The cosmic centre of the universe - Mount Kailasha, and the full moon night of Sheetkaleen Aayanaat that happens once in decades sets the premise of the events that come into play. Inspired by the Bhagwad Gita and Vedic Literatures, the novel Turiya - The Fourth is a story about a clan led by a mystic called Abhirakshak (possessor of the mighty powers). They are a secret group disguised in the real world. One of them is a renowned professor who designs an intricate maze to protect Shakti Yantra, an alien instrument that gives superhuman powers to its possessor, and an ancient book of secrets about universal occult powers, from the evil powers of the darkness. Accession of the Shakti Yantra to become Abhirakshak can only be done at a specific geographical location, within a precise astrological timeframe. It requires a man to sustain his meditative self in the fourth state of mind called Turiya to experience and control highly unsettling powers of the Yantra. In this chase many incredible, lethal weapons and cosmic powers come into play. Will the good prevail over the evil? Can the evil master be stopped in his tracks from gaining access over the mighty Shakti Yantra? What cost will be paid to fight the battle of survival for humanity? Answers to these riddles lie in this book that unravels an incredible tale of mysteries and events in the game of power accession.
