The Celestial Calendar and the Hidden History read read

Seven prophetic days. One divine timeline. What if human history wasn’t random… but written like a sacred calendar? The Celestial Calendar is not a prophecy. Not a doctrine. It is a question turned into a story — a symbolic reconstruction of the world’s journey from light to shadow, and back again. From the fall of Lucifer to the end of time, this book reimagines history through the lens of ancient texts, hidden meanings, and divine silence. Inspired by Genesis, the Book of Enoch, and the words of Peter: “With the Lord, a day is like a thousand years…” This is not a theology textbook — it is a poetic meditation about divine freedom, spiritual time, and the meaning of choice.

10 Spiritual Stories on Fairness read read

author : ishwar

Fairness is not merely the act of equal distribution—it is the essence of justice with compassion, the virtue that sees beyond privilege, power, and pride. In the vast spiritual landscape of Sanatan Dharma, fairness is not dictated by worldly law alone, but by dharma—the righteous path, the eternal code of conduct that honors truth, balance, and selflessness. The stories in this collection are set in sacred villages, royal courts, forest hermitages, and bustling towns. They bring alive the principle of fairness through the lives of sages, kings, farmers, and seekers who upheld righteousness even when faced with adversity or temptation. Rooted deeply in the values of Sanatan Dharma, these narratives reflect how fairness can transcend caste, class, age, and circumstance when guided by integrity and inner wisdom. Each story, though fictional, is inspired by the timeless spirit of Bharatiya culture, where the actions of an individual are measured not only by their outcomes but by their adherence to moral duty. Whether it is a blind king weighing justice, a child challenging bias, or a teacher balancing love with truth, these characters reveal that fairness often requires courage, humility, and self-awareness. This compilation does not aim to preach, but to illuminate—to awaken the sense that fairness is not always convenient, but it is always divine. It is the lamp that lights the narrow path of dharma, especially when the world around seems clouded by desire, ego, or fear. May these stories serve as gentle reminders that true fairness is not found in judgment, but in understanding; not in dominance, but in balance; not in appearance, but in essence.

Beneath the shadow of epicure- tic darkness lies the paradox of “ying and yang” that distributes the energetic power within to conquer such problematic situations as we do…..the pre dialogue of broken pieces of matter and of being and substance that we all adhere to…..the “see saw” of total imbalance in need of complete rectification within the four quarters of life it-self and the life we wish to have and to hold until we are lucky enough to be granted by the greater authority to relish and be content in the scope of practice of comprehending the what if’s from the do’s and the don’ts and the like’s from the dislike’s and to be encumbered and entwined with a sense of wisdom and safety whist we are cocooned in life’s embrace.

I Have Always Been Ill, Your Majesty read read

author : Xiaobai_xoxo

When Ji Ping’an first transmigrated, her situation was already at rock bottom. The orphaned daughter of a merchant family with no one to rely on, she was left to the mercy of her distant relatives, the Song family, who tightly controlled her marriage prospects. With no way forward and no way out, her future was grim. Soon, the male lead Song Huaizhang would weave a grand net of affection to lure her in, make her his concubine, seize her entire inheritance, rise up in rebellion, and overthrow the tyrant emperor. And when the Song family raised their banner and claimed the throne, Ji Ping’an—the once-useful concubine—would quietly perish in some hidden corner of the inner residence. Sigh, sigh, sigh. After a triple sigh, Ji Ping’an decided to establish herself as a weak and sickly beauty with her maid Dongchun’s help. From then on, she gasped every three steps and coughed every five, turning herself into a certified, world-renowned delicate beauty. Using the excuse of accumulating virtue, she traveled the countryside, treating the sick and earning respect, all while secretly searching among her many patients for a reliable husband who could help her escape the Song family’s grasp. After much consideration, Ji Ping’an set her sights on a quiet, stoic hunter. Though he had no wealth or status, he had no entangled family either—no in-laws, no scheming household members, and certainly none of the treacherous, bone-chilling plots like those in the Song family. Plus, he was good-looking—sharp brows, starry eyes, and a heroic bearing. As for his body? She’d felt it under the guise of a medical check—he was a beast. The only issue? His temper was a little odd. Every time she and Dongchun ranted about the cruel and volatile tyrant in the book, predicting his downfall, the hunter would stare at her strangely and let out a mocking snort from deep in his throat. No matter—he was a bit odd, but she could deal with that after marriage. ..... He’s going to chop Ji Ping’an’s head off one day. Every time Zhou Sheng returned to the palace after getting “treated” by Ji Ping’an, he flew into a rage. Civil and military officials trembled in fear, terrified they’d said or done something wrong and would face his wrath—or worse, a family-wide execution. As the emperor, all under heaven was his to rule, life and death in his hands. Yet somehow, he couldn’t bring himself to kill Ji Ping’an. Why? Because only she could treat his embarrassing condition. On the 932nd occasion, he considered killing her, but Ji Ping’an finally got tricked into entering the palace. Fine. If he couldn’t kill this petty, vengeful, weak little woman, then he’d just keep her by his side and torment her slowly. .... The world believed His Majesty doted on the empress. She was weak and frail, quick-tempered, and His Majesty did everything in his power to avoid upsetting her, softening his own twisted temper, striving to be a virtuous ruler, all in hopes of earning heavenly favor for her recovery. They were the very image of a loving, harmonious royal couple. But Dongchun, who had followed Ji Ping’an since the beginning, knew the truth. They fought—a small argument every three days, a big one every five. Ji Ping’an always stood her ground, using her “illness” to her full advantage, never backing down and driving the emperor mad. “Ji Ping’an! I swear, it’s not your body that’s sick—it’s your brain! How did I end up marrying such a petty, unreasonable, infuriating woman?!” BANG! Zhou Sheng slammed the door and stormed off. Dongchun had gotten used to it. The emperor would return by nightfall—worried the empress would worsen her “chronic illness” from the quarrel, he never dared stay away long. But— Dongchun broke out in a cold sweat. If one day His Majesty found out the empress was never actually sick… Would either of their heads stay intact?

The Last Craft read read

author : KnightLeon

The Last Craft follows Elias Berwick, a once-proud artisan whose livelihood is destroyed by the rise of machine mass production. Forced to sell his father''''s workshop, he takes a job at a factory. There, he and his fellow workers come to the grim realization that their labor will eventually be replaced by the cold efficiency of machines. In the face of unemployment and despair, Elias joins the growing resistance—swearing to destroy the very machines that have stolen his craft. Inspired by the Luddite Movement and 19th-century worker uprisings, this steampunk novel delves into the origins and struggles of early labor movements. The Last Craft is set in Aelvos, a steampunk world of tyranny and oppression created by me. While technology flourishes with airships and mechanical devices at every turn, the common people see none of the benefits. Greedy and callous capitalists view workers as mere consumables—nothing more than raw materials in the production process. In this desperate world, the day will come when human labor is fully replaced by automated machines, and for the capitalists, the profits will soar, leaving workers to drown in the unforgiving tide of industrial progress.
