Devshakti Adbhut Divyastra: देवशक्ति अद्भुत दिव्यास्त्र
by Shivendra Suryavanshiशक्ति- एक ऐसा शब्द जिसे प्राप्त करने के लिये, मनुष्य, देवता, दैत्य ही नहीं अपितु अंतरिक्ष के जीव भी सदैव लालायित रहते हैं। शक्ति का पर्याय स्वामित्व से जुड़ता है, इसलिये ब्रह्मांड के सभी जीव शक्ति को प्राप्त कर, स्वयं को श्रेष्ठ दिखाना चाहते हैं। वन में मौजूद एक सिंह भी, अन्य वन्य प्राणियों के समक्ष अपनी शक्ति का प्रदर्शन करने से नहीं चूकता। ठीक उसी प्रकार कुछ देवता भी मनुष्यों के समक्ष, अपना शक्ति प्रदर्शन कर, उनमें भय की भावना उत्पन्न करते रहते हैं। जैसे देवराज इंद्र के द्वारा जलप्रलय लाना या सूर्यदेव के द्वारा सूखे की स्थिति उत्पन्न कर देना। यह सब भी शक्ति प्रदर्शन के अद्वितीय उदाहरण हैं। दैत्यों ने हमेशा त्रिदेवों से ही शक्ति प्राप्त कर, उनका प्रयोग देवताओं के ही विरुद्ध किया है। इन शक्तियों को प्राप्त करने के लिये, मनुष्यों ने भी घोर तप किये हैं। कुछ ऐसी ही देवशक्तियों को, पृथ्वी की सुरक्षा के लिये, देवताओं ने पृथ्वी के अलग-अलग भागों में छिपा दिया, जिससे समय आने पर कुछ दिव्य मानव, उन देव शक्तियों को धारण कर, पृथ्वी की सुरक्षा का भार उठा सकें। ऐसे ही देवशक्ति धारक कुछ विलक्षण मनुष्य बाद में ब्रह्मांड रक्षक कहलाये।
Devyuddh - Mahasangram Gatha: देवयुद्ध - महासंग्राम गाथा
by Shivendra Suryavanshiजब ब्रह्मदेव ने महादेव से पृथ्वी का भविष्य जानने की इच्छा व्यक्त की, तो महादेव ने उन्हें क्षीरसागर में स्थित रुद्रासन के पास भेज दिया। ब्रह्मदेव जब रुद्रासन को ढूंढते हुए क्षीरसागर में पहुंचे, तो वहां उन्हें सप्तकणों से निर्मित सप्तपुस्तकें दिखाई दीं। उन सप्तपुस्तकों में अलग-अलग प्रकार से भविष्य को देखने की शक्तियां थीं। ब्रह्मदेव ने उन सप्तशक्तियों की सहायता से, पृथ्वी का भविष्य देखने की कामना व्यक्त की। परंतु पृथ्वी का भविष्य देखकर ब्रह्मदेव अत्यंत चिन्तित हो गये, क्योंकि पृथ्वी के भविष्य में एक देवयुद्ध छिपा था, जिसमें पृथ्वी का महाविनाश संलिप्त था। ब्रह्मदेव ने पृथ्वी को महाविनाश से बचाने के लिये, उन सभी सप्तपुस्तकों को पृथ्वी के 7 सबसे सुरक्षित स्थानों पर छिपा दिया। ब्रह्मदेव को विश्वास था कि जब भविष्य में ब्रह्मांड रक्षक इन पुस्तकों को प्राप्त कर लेंगे, तो देवयुद्ध से होने वाले महाविनाश को टाला जा सकेगा। इसके बाद शुरु हुई एक समयचक्र की एक ऐसी कथा श्रृंखला जिसमें देवता तो क्या ब्रह्मांड के कई ग्रह भी उलझ गए।
