తులసి [Tulasi]

by Yandamoori Veerendranath, యండమూరి వీరేంద్రనాథ్

పూజాలు, మంత్ర తంత్రాలతో, సొసైటీని వొల్చుకుతింటున్న సిద్ధేశ్వరీ దేవి బండారం బద్దలుకొట్టి, సమాజానికి హేతుబద్ధమైన న్యాయాన్ని కలిగించాలనే తీవ్ర సంకల్పంతో ఓ యువతి ఆ కూటంలోకి పులి నోట్లోకి చేయి పెట్టినట్టు దూకింది. కాని సిద్దేశ్వరీ దేవికి చేతబడులూ, క్షుద్ర విద్యలూ క్షుణ్ణంగా తెలిసిన మహా మంత్రికుడు లక్కీగా దొరికాడు. అతడ్ని లోబరుచుకుని మాయోపాయంతో సమాజాన్ని యింకా దోచుకోవాలనే కుతంత్రంలో...

ఆ వచ్చిన మహా మంత్రికుడూ, ఈ తరం యువతి (మీ కథా నాయిక)చేయి చేయి కలిపిన తరువాత...ప్రభాంజనాలు వీచాయో, ఏ అగ్ని పర్వతాలు ప్రేలాయో ఏ సముద్రాలు విజృంభించాయో, ఏ శాస్త్రాలూ, ఏ విజ్ఞానం, ఏ అభ్యుదయం, ఏ తర్కం తన మూడో కన్ను విప్పిందో అదే ’తులసి’.

'துளசி தளம்' என்ற நாவலுக்கு சரியான தொடர்ச்சியாக வந்திருக்கிறது இந்த 'மீண்டும் துளசி'. பதினொன்று வருடங்களுக்குப் பிறகு காத்ராவை கொன்றவர்களை பழிவாங்கும் எண்ணத்தில் உருவாகும் புதிய மந்திரவாதி, தார்க்கா. அதிருப்தி அடைந்திருந்த காஷ்மோராவுக்கு உதவுவதற்காக துளசியை கண்டுபிடிக்க நாகரீக உலகத்திற்குள் நுழைகிறான் அவன். பிற்பாடு அவன் துளசியை கண்டுபிடித்தானா, காத்ராவை கொன்றவர்களைப் பழிவாங்கினானா, துளசிக்கு என்ன ஆனது என்பது கதை. கதையின் இறுதியில் கூட சில அவிழ்க்கப்படாத மர்மங்கள் இருப்பதுதான் ஸ்வாரஸ்யத்தை தக்க வைத்திருக்கிறது. இறுதி கடிதத்தில் எழுதியிருந்ததுபோல மறுஜென்மத்தில் துளசி தார்க்காவை சந்திக்கும் வகையில் ஒரு கதை அமைந்தால் நன்றாகத்தான் இருக்கும் ;) இக்கதையை ஒலிவடிவில் வளையொலியில் கேட்டேன் இங்கே: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list...-

i think this book is very interesting as it is about spiritual in which i'm interested in.

[Arvind Srinivasan]

First time I am reading a book in horror + thriller genre and it was not a let down. On hearing good reviews on thulasi dhalam I got interest in talking this book. The starting of the book was really a great horror experience but the same thing could not be sustained in the later phases was a bit of let down.

The books starts in full pace, but goes too sluggish in middle with too many characters introduced and kind of unnecessary travel in between. In the middle one feels if the story writer has lost his plot, but towards the later half of the book writer catches up with great story and awesome narration + narrating style. On the whole we could feel that lesser importance could have been given for sub plots and main plot could have been explained a bit more adding some more details and horror experience to it (Skilled powerful character of tharkka not completely utilized).

Giving scientific reason to different black magics was some thing different. All killing methods were strange and lot of chemical though attached to it makes it more terrifying than horror. Explanation given to conjurer's different activities and the final letter by the conjurer where he questions normal people of universe was a great whip to some of my beliefs and thoughts - a great applause to the author for this imagination and narration.

If you have not read any book in horror or black magic, if you are believer of black magic or a opposer - this book is for you so go for it, all will have their own take aways. A very good book and I would recommend it.

[Lavanya Sampath]

Read this book 3-4 years after reading the first book. Found it hard to remember the characters initially, but picked up after a while. What I like about these books is the blend in science and superstitions. The way the author has explained the situations in both superstitious terms and scientific terms is excellent!! Worth one read.

[Abhishekh Kumar]

This book is the continuation of the book Tulasidhalam. It is a blend of science and black magic.

My problem with this book is - the book's length. The situations should have been explained well even though it may increase the length.

But still if you are looking for an insightful book about science and how dark magic can be explained by science. Pick this!!!

[Dharani]

A compelled sequel to Thulasi Thalam, provoking various emotions.
Even though first half was dragging building backstories, the second half took pace revealing the sense of morality in each characters.

[Manoj Kumar]

amazing

[Sunandhiniseerollu]

very interesting cant keep an eye out of the book

[Surendher]

Before reading this should read Tulasidalam

A wonderful logical and fictional novel by Yandamoori

[Mrunal Sanganabhatla]

Awesomely gripping story in a typical Yadamoori narration.

[Ravi K. Avadhanula]

A thrilling entertainer. The author is well versed with the details when it comes to occult stories.

[Suresh Vadapalli]

Good

[Haritha]

One of the best book and interesting one is available at chirukaanuka .com

[Devi Charan]

Tulasi is a sequel to TulasiDalam, and like the latter, it is a must-read for fans of thrillers and psychological fiction. It combines elements of black magic and scientific facts with gripping storytelling, making it both an entertaining and thought-provoking novel.

[Arun Shourie]

A continuation to Tulasi Dalam and this Time the Girl is Grown-up and the Evil master has a sincere disciple and the characters are all full believers of Supernatural/paranormal forces. Though not as wonderful as Tulasi dalam (may be because the paid of a Child causes much powerful impact on the readers than the pain of a grownup lady), the book still makes for a must read and has all the required elements to make it a worth successor.

[Srinivasan Ganesan]

IT is not good as the first part but the author tries to take the story in a more scientific manner which is as exciting as it gets.The characterisation is not properly done and the sudden change of heart by the villain seems so cinematic as it is presented. The book is a good read till the last page but the impact on it's reader's doesn't last long enough.

[Sarath Karanam]

It's a great book. Spooks enough to keep you glued to the story. The way things were revealed and explained, I would say, Yandamoori Veerendranath is the best author of crime/thriller/fantasy in Telugu.

But whoever reads Tulasi Dalam can never disagree that this book is the 2nd best of Yandamoori's writings.

[Sarath Kumar]
