Awakening Colors will take you on a magical adventure!
Read this fascinating story that weaves together current
times with ancient mythologies. Set in modern day Toronto, this book is an
exciting story of adventures that evolve across material worlds into illusions
and beyond.
Using his powers to reach into the world of illusions, Arche
Lasarre is able to change destinies. The
power of his manipulations threatens all three worlds: the material, the
illusionary and the timeless.
Visions of constantly changing destinies and futures
depicted in vibrant colors - this is what Pari sees. Mystified and confused, Pari initially hides
her visions from others. She dismisses them as hallucinations.
Guided by scrolls left to her by the spiritual master
Chanakya, Pari needs to discover her powers and define her own destiny. Will she be seduced by the lure of Arche's
power of illusions? Will she choose her
own path? What will Pari do?

Illusions
The world is a big place. It is too complex to grasp; too unwieldy to
control; too difficult to explain; and too dangerous to safeguard. So it is not
unusual to shrink it and think of “our” world instead of “The” world.
At conception, our world is the
womb. At birth, it is our mother. As infants, our home and family... and so it goes
- this ever expanding world of ours that still remains “our” world within “The”
world.
We are taught about the universe, the
sciences, culture and religion. We learn
about it all, and yet we understand only what we can tie to our own world. The rest, that we don’t understand, we accept
on faith or we reject in skepticism.
In our world, we are in control. The things we do or don’t do, directly impact
the consequences we suffer and the rewards we enjoy. Our choices are limited by our
knowledge. Our identities are defined by
the world we inhabit as much as we define our world. Our world is simple, controllable,
explainable, and protected.
There comes a day, when we realize that our
world is not as insular and protected as we thought it was. It can be changed in a moment by natural
phenomena, an unnatural attack, or even something simple as the acceptance of a
contrary idea. Our world, we realize, is
reality skewed by the illusions we have harbored. These illusions are the lies
we have told ourselves and each other.
These illusions are the lies we have believed.
These illusions that skew the reality of
our world are termed as “Maya” in Hindu mythology.

Awakening
Colors, twenty-five year old Pari survives a car accident only to
discover her reality is altered. She now sees beyond the material world
into the timeless one. Guided by books left to her by Chanakya, Pari
learns to accept her altered reality and sets out to discover the possibilities
inherent in her new powers. Arche waits in the shadows of this
multi-dimensional reality to corrupt her understanding and lure her to the dark
side.
As
the sharp edges of Pari’s reality begin to unravel into colorful possibilities,
she discovers the power that lies beyond the limitations of time. In
changing her own destiny, she changes the world around her. As her life
evolves, so do the lives around her. Then she has to face up to the
consequences of her own making. With great power comes great
responsibility – will Pari be able and willing to face up to this
responsibility? Will she be able to resist the seductive lure of her own
expanding power?
Walking
between the light of Chanakya’s wisdom and the darkness of Arche’s corruption,
Pari’s story of growth and discovery reflect both the reality and the illusions
of our world.
Rooted to her land of birth, India, and tied to her adoptive
country Canada where she has lived for the past 25 plus years, Ritu combines
her experiences and beliefs to weave seamless stories that will awaken your
imagination and change the way you view the world.
Ritu is committed to working closely with a set of beta
readers and her editor to write and publish quality works of fiction.
Besides writing, she loves to read, garden, meditate and to
walk. She currently lives in Woodbridge, Ontario with her husband.
Her first book Awakening Colors is available for purchase on
