Ashes of Dharma

Summary:

In a decaying modern world, Arjun, a struggling man chasing meaning and survival, dies under mysterious circumstances. He reincarnates into an alternate world where yoga, dharma, and true wisdom have been lost. The world worships false gods—beings who feed on blind faith. These gods keep humanity bound in spiritual slavery.

But Arjun, carrying fragments of ancient memory and karmic fate, awakens the forgotten practices of yogic cultivation, Indian martial disciplines, and inner transformation. His journey is not just to grow strong, but to break the cycle of dependency and live a life without regret, guided by purpose and family.

World Structure:

Small World: Corrupt kingdoms ruled by "avatars" of false gods. Ashrams are extinct, martial arts hidden.

Small Universe: Realms where ancient texts are forbidden. Demonic cults and god-ruled empires.

Large Universe: Cosmic balance broken. Gods vs Demons, but both are corrupt. Arjun learns deeper yogic laws (like from Upanishads).

Great Universe: Near the level of Shiv Puran—Arjun challenges the entire cycle of Samsara, uncovering truths even gods fear.
