The Banyan Tree

by Vinay Chakravarthy

Overview

Kautilya, a teenager, is traveling alone through the dark jungles of ancient India. Suddenly he comes across a Banyan Tree that he is inexplicably drawn to.

Soon, he finds himself as Amit, an ordinary high-schooler in a present-day small town in the US. As Amit deals with the seemingly urgent decisions to be made for college and a career, flashes of memories of being Kautilya in a past life keep pulling him in. Some of the people he meets, he seems to have met before as Kautilya.

In his journey he comes across plans that can change history and also the present world as we know it. He faces the internal battle of realisation of his powers and using them for greater good.

As he struggles to understand and return to the life he knew and loved, Amit is confronted with much larger questions - who is he really? Where is he in time? Does his quest have a larger meaning?

In an enthralling journey across centuries, continents and lifetimes, the mystical journey of self-discovery becomes a race to save our future. Will he succeed?
