What if the soul could be programmed? What if ancient wisdom held the key to defeating modern mind control? In Birds of Destiny, Madhava Kumar Turumella delivers a gripping metaphysical thriller where spiritual destiny, political intrigue, and interdimensional science collide. Siddhanta Sarma, a priest, philosopher, and reluctant visionary, becomes entangled in a secret war that spans continents and timelines. From the sacred temples of South India to the intelligence corridors of Riyadh and Karachi, Sarma faces forces that are far more dangerous than physical enemies-forces that manipulate memories, hijack thoughts, and erase free will. At the heart of this conspiracy is a terrifying piece of technology: COMxBAT, a suitcase-sized device capable of reading and rewriting human brainwaves. As geopolitical tensions rise and faith systems are weaponised, Sarma must uncover not just hidden enemies-but also forgotten lifetimes and cosmic truths buried within himself. Blending Hindu metaphysics, Islamic eschatology, and science fiction, Birds of Destiny is a genre-defying narrative that explores the meaning of consciousness, karma, and liberation. The novel is a continuation of the critically praised Riddles of Destiny, but stands strong as a compelling, stand-alone journey. With themes of reincarnation, interfaith tensions, mind control, and metaphysical awakening, it speaks to readers seeking more than just a thriller-it offers a spiritual blueprint for awakening in an age of control. For fans of Dan Brown, Deepak Chopra, and Philip K. Dick, this book invites readers to question what it means to be human-and what forces truly govern our fate. Are we the creators of our destiny-or the victims of a cosmic design we've forgotten?
