The Beginning. A Multicultural Tale of Transformation.

On June 16, 1914, journalist Alec Bannon and his young wife Millie Bloom, a photographer, meet at the Museum of Natural Science of New York an Inuit called Piugaattoq (also known as Minik Wallace) who's father's bones are on display over there. Minik hires the services of a Chinese tong and a Voodoo priest to assist him for revengefully replacing his father's remains by those of the museum director's deceased father. The Bannon's, freshly accredited at New York, make a reportage about it and soon afterwards they're entangled into a web of intrigues that surrounds the power struggle for the leadership of the Chinese Tongs that also has far reaching geo-political consequences, involves multi-million dollar transactions between multinational colonial trading companies, weapon trafficking, a mysterious organization of immortals and some (not always nice) supernatural creatures. 

The title of this work "The Maharajagar" is a self-coined portmanteau word through combining parts of the Hindu words; mahaan (great), hare (green) and ajagar (dragon). The main purpose of this novel is to entertain the reader with a historical fantasy: a spellbinding epic tale of ambition, anarchy and absolute power, set against the canvas of North America, Europe and Asia during World War 1 and the ensuing great depression.

This novel uses metaphors, symbols, ambiguities, and overtones which gradually link themselves together so as to form a network of connections binding the whole work. This system of connections gives the novel a wide, more universal significance as the tale becomes a modern microcosm presented from a fictive metaphysical perspective. This system can be described as the "mythic method": a way of controlling, of ordering, of giving a shape and give significance to the immense panorama of futility and anarchy which is contemporary history.



There are however three meta-themes interwoven with the tale of the Maharajagar;

1.      The All is a projection of informational modulated energy waves by a cosmically horizon on the time-space continuum.

2.      Synchronicity is a phenomenon that comes to us with a message

3.      The Long Now is the only time concept to give a lasting meaning to our thinking and, hopefully consequent, actions

These principles offer a perspective from where a powerful code of conduct can emanate, transforming our lives to a new experience of freedom, happiness, and love.
