After learning to heal the broken idols of his deities, he sets off on a quest that takes him further than he could ever have imagined. Along the way, he earns the love of the most beautiful woman in the world. He finds the hidden temple of Lord Shiva and the power of Soma. He studies at the feet of the master healer Guru Deodas –only to be thrown out for violating dogma and taboo. He heals the wounds of immortal warriors and visits the lands of the immortals up above. He plumbs the depths of the world’s most excellent university. He charts a new medical path and perfects procedures for healing and conquering disease.
