About this listen

In a futuristic, circular compound by the Red Sea—lush with orchards, floral geometry, and silent drones delivering coffee and music—ten extraordinary individuals from the world’s major faiths are summoned by a mysterious scroll. They gather in the Garden Circle, a magical sanctuary where truth must be debated before an age ends.

Each of the twelve chapters unveils a powerful debate—not of violence, but of fierce, honest dialogue. The Israeli-Palestinian conflict erupts first, raw and unresolved. Religious confrontation follows: Christian claims of singular truth meet Hindu pluralism, Islamic pride, and Jewish prophecy. Old grievances resurface, and deep misunderstandings are exposed.

At the center stands Aarvan, a mystic teacher with a calm, commanding presence. He introduces a broader cosmology—the Four Ages. We are in the Kali Yuga, the age of darkness, but a new age is dawning: the Satya Yuga. The Messiah isn’t coming, Aarvan declares. He has already come—again.

He speaks of divine unity: Vishnu, Yahweh, the Holy Father, and Allah are not rivals but reflections of one truth. Prophets, angels, avatars—all are facets of the same cosmic story. Questions rain down from the skies by drone; revelations ripple across the audience.

Internal reckonings follow—within Islam (the Dajjal), Judaism (Armilus), and Christianity (false prophecies). Each must confront the ways in which their truths have been distorted. Then comes a final declaration of war—not with weapons, but against ego, fear, and falsehood.

Aarvan recounts how King Parikshit’s curse ushered in this dark age by giving the Devil control over money, lust, violence, and deception. Now, the cycle nears its close. The one destined to end the age is already here. And in the Satya Yuga, religion as we know it will dissolve—for God will be directly felt, with no need for priests or prophets.

This is more than a novel.

It is a prophecy.

It is a spiritual reckoning.

And it has only just begun.
