SAKSHI – साक्षी

Product Highlights
मानवी भावभावनांकडे अलिप्तपणे पाहिलं की आपल्या जाणिवांना खरे रुप गवसते. हा निरंतर संघर्ष या कादंबरीत परमेश्वरय्या यांच्या रूपाने अवतरला आहे. एका खोट्या साक्षीसाठी स्वतःला दोषी माननारे परमेश्वरय्या आत्महत्या करतात आणि यमसदनी पोहोचतात. पण त्यांना सूक्ष्मदेहाने पुन्हा पृथ्वीवर पाठवण्यात येत आणि त्यांचा भोवताल साक्षीभावाने पाहण्यास सांगितलं जातं. परमेश्वरय्यांचा हा प्रवास नकळत प्रत्येक मानवी मनात चाललेल्या संघर्षातं प्रतिनिधित्व करतो.
Description
OVERCOME BY THE ABIDING GUILT OF HAVING PERJURED HIMSELF IN A MURDER TRIAL, A VILLAGE ELDER COMMITS SUICIDE. YAMA, THE GOD OF DEATH AND RIGHTEOUSNESS, COMMANDS HIM TO RETURN TO EARTH IN SPIRITUAL FORM TO WITNESS BUT NOT TO INTERVENE IN THE SUBSEQUENT EVENTS. THE VILLAGE ELDER OBSERVES THE OTHER CHARACTERS AS THEY ARE CONFRONTED BY DIFFICULT DECISIONS AND REVELATIONS WHICH CAUSE THEM LOOK INWARD AND ATTEMPT AN APPRAISAL OF THEIR LIVES AND VALUES: SAVITRI, WHO REALISES THE TRUTH BEHIND HER MOTHER’S SUICIDE, GREEDY NAGAPPA, IDEALISTIC SATYAPPA AND ABOVE ALL, THE ARROGANT, SELFISH AND LUSTFUL MANJAIAH. ‘THE WITNESS’ USES ANCIENT MYTHS AND PHILOSOPHICAL AND GANDHIAN CONCEPTS TO DISCUSS THE MEANING OF TRUTH AND ITS DISTORTIONS THROUGH GREED, SEXUALITY AND DESIRE. THE FOCUS IS ON WHAT IT MEANS TO BE A WITNESS – IN A COURTROOM, BEFORE THE GODS, TO THE LIVES OF OTHERS, OR FINALLY, TO ONE’S SELF.
