Once upon a time, a young princess was blessed with a son by the Sun God while she was still a teen. However, the joy of motherhood was short-lived for her. In a society where honor stood above all, the unmarried princess faced an impossible dilemma. With a heavy heart, she placed her newborn son in a basket and set him adrift on the river Ashvanadi, entrusting his fate to the gods.


As the basket drifted away, the princess shed silent tears, for she sensed her firstborn was marked by destiny for greatness. What unfolds next? This tale will send shivers down your spine and bring tears to your eyes. A timeless epic retold for modern readers, old stories dissected with modern philosophy. Dive into the story now, “Kunti: Cry of A Queen”


Details: Once upon a time, in the heart of ancient India, lived a young princess named Pritha. She was celebrated far and wide for her unmatched love, care, compassion, and kindness.


One day, her father entrusted her with a daunting task: to appease Sage Durvasa, known for his fierce temper and unforgiving nature. Alarmed yet composed, Pritha approached the sage with a heart full of sincerity and a spirit of selfless service.


To everyone's surprise, Pritha not only succeeded in her task but also won a remarkable boon from the pleased sage. He granted her the power to summon any god and bear a child of valor equals to that particular God. Driven by youthful curiosity and innocent desire, Pritha called upon the Sun God, and lo, he blessed her with a son as radiant as himself.


But the joy of motherhood was short-lived for Pritha. In a society where honor stood above all, the unmarried princess faced an impossible dilemma. With a heavy heart, she placed her newborn son in a basket and set him adrift on the river Ashvanadi, entrusting his fate to the gods.


As the basket floated away, Pritha's heart wept silent tears, for she knew deep down that her firstborn was destined for greatness.


This book ventures beyond a simple retelling of the Mahabharata's tales. It presents the most comprehensive and logical story of Kunti, enriched with deep analyses that highlight the relevance of her story in our lives today. I am certain that in Kunti's story, you will find a piece of yourselves.


As you may know, I often claim that Indian culture and psyche are born and raised in the soil of the Mahabharata's story. This epic has conditioned us for over 2600 years. Thus, our thoughts, behaviors, and actions are all consequences of the Mahabharata. To know the Mahabharata's story well means to understand the culture and spirit of India.


So, dear readers, I invite you to journey through the life of Pritha, a princess whose story transcends time and space, touching the very core of our being. Together, let's explore not just the saga of a legendary figure but the very essence of humanity that connects us all.

About the author

Dr. Arun Maji bridges art and science, life and philosophy, suffering and meaning. With a scalpel in one hand and a piano in the other, he strives not just to extend life—but to restore meaning and purpose to it.  


Once upon a time, in a quiet mountain village, there lived an old monk. Whenever the villagers faced trouble — a fire in the bush, a broken roof, a sick child — they turned to him. One day, a cheeky young man asked, “Great monk, how do you solve every kind of problem? You’re just one man.” The monk smiled and replied, “You don’t always need to know every solution. You just need to understand humans deeply, and know how to solve a problem. If I don’t have the answer, I find the one who does — and borrow it.”

That’s how Dr. Arun Maji writes — across many subjects that may seem vast and varied at first glance. He doesn’t claim to know everything. But he knows how to observe, how to listen, and how to connect the dots between the emotional and the analytical, the spiritual and the scientific.

A frontline family physician and former military doctor, Dr. Maji has spent decades not just treating illness, but witnessing humanity — in its most vulnerable, raw, and noble forms. He is a lifelong student of science and an explorer of human suffering. A gentle rebel against unnecessary complexity, he believes that the greatest truths are often the simplest — and the most powerful.

His mission is to turn life’s chaos — emotional pain, medical confusion, spiritual doubt, philosophical fog — into something we can actually understand and heal. His tool of choice? The precision of mathematics, the honesty of biology, and the timeless clarity of human insight.

Whether writing about artificial intelligence, chronic disease, love, leadership, religion, trauma, or poetry — Dr. Maji follows the same process:

Understand the human. Frame the problem. Find the pattern. Build the model. Test the truth.

To him, writing across disciplines isn’t a stretch — it’s natural. Just as a single algorithm can build a bridge or diagnose a tumor, the same fundamental thinking can help us understand a wound, a belief, or even the idea of God.

Dr. Maji doesn’t believe in fluffy wisdom that evaporates when life gets hard. He believes in clarity that holds when everything else falls apart. His work is shaped by real people, real pain, and real questions that science and spirituality must answer together.

If you're someone who craves clarity in a noisy world — who’s tired of vague promises and hungry for real understanding — his books are for you.

Each one is a map.

Not made of theory.

But born from the frontline of healing, the battlefield of life, and the quiet courage of questioning everything.

I don’t write because I’m a doctor.

I write because I’m human — and the world I live in surrounds me with questions no stethoscope can answer.

Let them box people into titles. I prefer to break the walls — and connect the dots.
