"This story is about a teacher and student who were meant to meet because god decided everything before we born.



It was 1840 and a boy was born in the village of India. His name was Rudraksha who were destined to meet Aswathama (the survivor of great war Mahabharat). Their fate was decided but they didn't knew the wrath they are going to shower in the world.



It was 4am when Rudraksha woke up and went to the jungle which is 2km away from his village to collect woods. Rudraksha went with a knife to protect himself from wild animals. When he reached there, he heard some voices he never heard like someone is practising with bow and arrow. He got curious and followed the noise but the man who was practicing heard his footsteps and ran away leaving his arrows he shot on trees, the arrows are very sharp and made with perfection.

Rudraksha started looking for the man and went deep into the forest searching the warrior. After searching for an hour he saw the temple in the middle of the forest, he didn't knew about the temple in the forest before and never heard from anyone. He reached temple, saw a man whorshipping shivling covered with flowers. He folds his hands to take blessings from the Lord Shiva. The man stood up, came near to Rudraksha and asked what he is looking for,

Rudraksha: I'm looking for a warrior

Man: There is no warrior in this forest

Rudraksha: look at this arrow, it is very fine arrow i ever saw in my life.

Man: why you looking for him

Rudraksha: I want to be trained by this warrior to protect my people from the looters of the King.

Man: You can learn it from the teachers of the ashram, they used to be great warriors of their kingdoms.

Rudraksha: I tried, but they teach only royal kids and I'm not royal. The warrior living in this forest might teach me, he may not discriminate between royals and commoners.

Man: what's your name Yuvaan (Youthful)

Rudraksha: I'm Rudraksha

Man: "being thoughtful" This arrow belongs to me kid and I can teach you with only condition that you'll live here in this forest and no one should know about me.

Rudraksha: I'm willing to sacrifice everything

Man: Don't you wish to know who I'm or you just keep observing my wound at the forehead and he smiled.

Rudraksha: I know Gurudev who you are...
