Description
‘Watching Stars’ is a beautifully illustrated philosophical novella about cosmic beings who experience life across different eras of history. It explores how inner light persists through darkness, how wisdom is preserved across generations, and how true freedom comes from within—a timeless tale that speaks to both children and adults about the eternal struggle for love, justice, and freedom.
What if the stars watching over us were more than distant lights—but the home of eternal wisdom, we've forgotten?
"Without freedom, all other virtues will only help make you into slaves." — A timeless warning whispered by the stars.
A Modern Cosmic Mythology For Today's World
In a universe where light itself can be harvested and controlled, two luminous beings find themselves trapped on a planet, their cosmic nature forgotten. Through lives spanning ages of civilization, Our Mother and Her Beloved must rediscover who they truly are while battling forces determined to dim humanity's inner radiance.
Light's Enduring Struggle Against Darkness
Experience the tender glow of starlight unveiling forgotten knowledge. Witness the dance of cosmic beings between stars. Discover the fragile song of freedom playing beneath the orchestrated sounds of confinement as "Watching Stars" transports you between earthly struggles and cosmic wonder.
Unlike typical science fiction that focuses on external technology, this illustrated novella explores the inner dynamics of life—how awareness can be both imprisoned and liberated across cosmic scales of time. The eternal struggle for Love, Freedom, and Justice forms the framework of an odyssey that echoes humanity's eternal search for truth.
An Illustrated Novella
Featuring over 20 full-page illustrations, this novella creates a rich visual experience that complements the written narrative. Each artwork captures pivotal moments in the cosmic journey, bringing to life the ethereal beings, crystalline wisdom, and the dance between light and shadow that defines this unique tale.

• The spiritual awakening journey of "Siddhartha"
