Tarak Maya: The War Of Planets

Unlike another tale of ‘love’, that includes ‘duplicity’, followed by hates, and eventually all these circumstances landing to war, this is the original one. It can be regarded as blueprint of all stories that include ‘cycle’ of love and hates. It is the stories of all stories. It is a master one. Interestingly, it is also basic to astrology. The nature and other characteristics of planets can be judged by using basic line of this one. Soma, the moon god is the hero of the recital, while Brihaspati played the role of antagonist.

Basically, it defines the war among planets which took place in very olden days. It however, in every respect divert from several encounters that have been cooked between Asura and Devas, as it deflects from following basic norms of all war - good over evil. In other stories, it easy to guess who is right? or who is wrong? Generally, facts always remain the same, Asura are evil, While God are good. But, this narrative is quite disparate. It is very hard to determine who hold the hand of righteousness. However, the war took into account both Asura and Devas but which much divergence, for example Soma who always aids Deva parted with Asura, while Rudra, the energy of Shiva who is generally hailed by Asura parted with Devas.
