"Yes, a duality that is one of many perspectives of the universe-- the masculine and the feminine. The Asuras and the Suryavanshis represent the masculine/. The Devas and Chandravanshis speak for the feminine. The names change, but the life forces they embody remain the same. They will always exist. Neither can be ever destroyed. Otherwise the universe will implode." "And they see their fight with the other as the eternal struggle between good and evil."
This is a conversation between Lord Shiv and a Pandit who meets him at a temple. It means that world is comprised of both positive and negative energies. A person encounters both the energies, the way one deals with both the phases sets their future path or molds one's personality. None of them is good or bad; we need both of them in appropriate amounts in order to function in this world.
This is taken from a book that I recently read, 'The immortals of Meluha' by Amish Tripathi. It's an amazing book that drives you back to the world you might believe existed, just like your great great great grandparents. I mean one may not have seen them physically but you are bound to believe that they existed. Amish Tripathi is a renowned writer and this is his first book of Shiva Triology. He has written a this novel imagining or as I said believing that what if Lord Shiva was a human like any one of us, how would he live his life, all about his principles, personality, family, friends and his people. The book has many contexts which are so relatable to our lives now and answers questions which not many of them get answers of.
My father being a spiritual person, we have been brought up hearing lot of stories of Gods and other powerful human beings. His stories talk about a person facing some problem and then talking about different ways of dealing with the problems; thereby bringing in a reform in that person's life. Since, then I was explained, one has to face certain problems (which one thinks as evil) and then later with you abilities and with support of others, you resolve it (which one feels good about). Similarly, the law of duality is innate to mankind which has been very well explained in this book.
I read very few books and to me this is the ultimate book I have read till now. I am looking forward to read other parts and book written by Amish. Lastly, I would like to say that an author's book is worth of putting all the efforts, is when the reader feels part of the words written in those pages. In this book, I could feel, relate and be there throughout the story and hence, this book has done justice to all the efforts put in by the author, to me at least.
