The connection to Science & Ardhanarishvara

I was thinking about my fantasy world, and I gathered something:

For centuries, scientists around the world believed that Space & Time were considered to be disconnected. Until one of the greatest minds of the current age formulated a theory where Space & Time were connected. This phenomenon was named "Spacetime." Yet, Hinduism had discovered this before modern science. Mahakali, the devi of time & Siva, the formless boundary that encompasses the universe as one, are named Ardhanarishvara. The connection of Space & Time prior to Einstein.

Furthermore, Kali steps on Siva. In a spacetime diagram, an object weighs on spacetime itself, warping it. Kali weighs on Siva, just as an object weighs on space-time.

Naagin: Maut Ka Anaat Saya

Don't forget to upvote if you liked the pitch!
Maut ka Anaat Saya- Naagin 8
Taking place years after Anatna. Now more of a vansh yet still met with the standards present by Naagin Sushanta all those years ago.

Tashak Vansh- Nagas that grow up to 100 feet in Serpent form; trillions of wings cover their body as they possess excess flight.

My narrative envisions an alternate reality where the Anantkul remains ensnared in an eternal curse of no longer being Nagas/Naginis. The original Nagas and Naginis, having lost their mystical powers due to this curse, still retain their serpentine venom. Their descendants are trained as Vishkanyas, gradually exposed to poison to maintain status in Nagalok.

The Tawaifs excel in various artistic forms, mainly in dance and poetry, yet their existence is marred by a singular purpose: to serve as objects of desire for other vanshes within Nagalok, despite their noble heritage. The female warriors of this vansh, who resisted this imposed ideology, were tragically slain in a conflict against the Takshak Vansh. The elder women of the Vansh jumped into the flame during Jauhar, ensuring that the Vansh would never have their bodies.

One young girl managed to escape to the court of the Sheshnaagrani (I also had an idea for it to be Kartoaka who could leave a mark of justice by simply biting them. Making a Naga practically hideous even if they changed forms like a dark scaly burn) at the time. As the final surviving member of her Kul, not a single Naga dared to even look at her. Fleeing the court, she had wept. The Tawaifs are revered for their artistic prowess. Using creativity and lethality as a balance.

Each death makes her stronger. Each part of her revenge only increases her venom.

Inspiration

I drew inspiration from historical contexts where colonizers have diminished the artistic expressions of Tawaifs, reducing their rich cultural heritage to mere objects of lust.
I believe this also fufills Ekta's narrative of educating people of India's history. (Although this was not her intention at all but it still connects.)

Let's rank hierarchy

Naagin:

The Naagin is a standard Naagin of Naaglok. These Naaginspossess typical ichchadhari abilities. While powerful individually, a Naagin is generally subordinate to higher ranks.

Vansh Naagrani:

The Naagrani represents a queenly rank, serving as the ruler or guardian over a specific group of Naagins or a vansh/kul within Naaglok. A single Naagrani may command the loyalty of hundreds of Naagins and wields enhanced abilities and an authoritative command over her subordinates. This rank is typically attained through either inheritance, valor, or (perhapssss) selection by either Shivangi or Shavrani.

Holders: Tashikia (As Shesha & Tashikia. No longer) Bela (Sheshnaag vansh) Anatana (Anatkul me naagrani) Shivanya (Naagrani of an unknown kul) Sumrtia (Deceased/No Longer) Shesha (As Ku Sarp ke Rani) Mantyas Mother (No Longer.)

Mahanaagrani (Abdicated) Now: Naaglok ke Naagrani.

Sheholds authority over Naaglok and its treasures such as the Naagmani. This rank exceeds that of the Naagrani in both status and power. A Mahanaagrani may abdicate her role either voluntarily or after fulfilling her duties, often passing the guardianship of the Naagmani to the next designated Naagrani while retaining a revered elder position. An abdicated Mahanaagrani still commands respect and may exercise indirect influence over Naaglok affairs. She is no longer shown apart of the hierarchy, her role was replaced by Saravashrestha Adi Naagin.

Holders: Sharavni, Shivangi, Anatana according to Sushanata.

Sheshnaagin / Sarvashreshta Sheshnaagin:

The one whom bears the Naagmani in her navel, commanding 100 Naagranis. Often considered an elder or extraordinarily powerful guardian of Naaglok. She is a forgotten position and her title has been merely reduced to one of the Sheshnaag vansh. She bares the Vasukimani and remains in the Shiv Mandir.

Holders: Pratha, Prathana, Mahek, Nagawesheri, Pragati.

Sarvashrestha Sheshnaagrani:
The judicial empress of Naagvansh. She is the consort of the elder of the Sheshnaag vansh and is a title only granted to those of martial status.

Holders: Mahek (No longer)

Maha Sarvashrestha Sheshnaagrani:

The consort of the elder Mahasheshnaagraj and is a title only granted to those of martial status.

Holders: Prathana, Pragati.

Titles:

​Sarvashrestha Adi Naagin ​Representing the most potent Naagin of all time. Her soul or reincarnation is singular, and no other Naagin may hold this position simultaneously. 

Holders: Nagershweri (No longer), Bani.

Maha Sarvashrestha Sheshnaagin : An even higher echelon of Sheshnaagin who embodies ultimate seniority, mystical foresight, and authority within the Naaglok hierarchy. She bares the 9 manis of the 9 Mahanaags acting as the guardian of the Mahanaagins.

Holders: Prathana (No longer.)

​Shiv Naagin / Anatkul ke Naagrani: The one “beyond time,” representing a metaphysical authority that transcends Naaglok hierarchy. The naagin who was born from the womb of a Naagin not even alive at her time.

Holders: Anatana.

Mahanaagins

Naagins who are remembered for their dedication in protecting their vansh or for their achievements.

Shivanya, Shivangi, Sharavani/Bela, Brinda, Bani, Pratha, Pragati, and Anatana.

The most powerful Naagin: Hm.. Maha Sarvashresetha Sheshnaagin.

Resolving Ekta's Mess: Part 1

Recap:

Pragati summoned Prathana and Pratha to slay the Sheshnaagin Mahek. Pratha told Pragati that the Shiv Naagin had already been born and was on her way to reclaim their Divya Vasukimani.

Pragati, having altered time and fate using the Sheshnaga book, watched in awe as the earth trembled and Sheshnaga himself appeared before her. He cursed Pragati and Mahasheshnaga Raghav for misusing the sacred book.

Falling back into the Himalayan caves, Pragati relinquished her position. She chose to live her life with Raghav.

Yet fate had other plans for the couple.

The day of dread arrived.

"Raghav!" she cried, catching him before he hit the stone floor. Tears streamed down her face as his scales bled fiercely. "I don't want to leave you," she wept. He only managed to say, "She has been born," before his spirit departed. Pragati was engulfed in grief, cursed the gods, and nearly decided to return to earth like her mother. Yet, a reason to live kept her going.

Her daughter yet to be born was her new life. She chose her name as Radhika, naming her after Raghav. She used her remaining powers as a Naagin to provide for her; even when the days were tough, she would return to provide food in the cave.

After Raghav's death, Pragati devoted herself entirely to Lord Shiva. Day after day, she and her daughter offered prayers with unwavering faith, hoping for guidance through their grief. Pleased by her devotion, Shiv ji appeared in front of her.

Overwhelmed, Pragati bowed before him and asked, "Mahadev, what is the purpose of my life now?"

Shiva looked upon her with compassion and replied, "The answer you seek has already been written. Open the Sheshnaag Book, and you shall discover your destiny." Shiva said.

Pragati returned to the book, and she flipped through the pages. Discovering the tale of the Shiv naagin. How she would bring the forgotten Anatkul to glory. She returned to the caves, where she asked Shiva if she could carry the child. Shiva nodded, and her womb acted as the space for the one beyond time, Ananta.

She used the power of the Sheshnaag book to return to the year 2001. The year of the prophecy.

"Maa.." Radhika said. Pragati looked at Radhika, and she knew that she wouldn't be returning.

That is the rewrite of Naagin 7's beginning

Summary: Anatana is the Shiv Naagin.

Sheshnaagin family tree is incest

If All Naagins Followed Royal Rules:

Naagin 2 Sheshnaag was shown as an old man. He would have to marry the queen of all serpents (Shivangi) and then marry Bela after Shivangi made her queen of all serpents.

Sheshnaag would have to marry the Sheshnaagin (prathas grandma) and then his own granddaughter.

Then Sheshnaag yash had a kid named Raghu (Maha Sheshnaag) who married his great granddaughter (Prathana).

Raghu reincarnated as Raghav. If Radhikia became Sheshnaagin, Raghav has to marry his daughter.

Raghav would then have to marry Radhikias daughter if she became Sheshnaagin.

Naga patterns

When a naga who does not belong to the Takshaka Vansh grows older, their memories gradually begin to fade, with entire lifetimes slipping away over the centuries. To preserve their identity, the patterns upon their serpent scales are not merely markings but living works of art, each curve and color recording the most important moments of their life. Whenever they wish to remember what time has stolen, they gently run their fingers across the intricate patterns of their scales. As their touch follows each marking, forgotten memories awaken, allowing them to relive fragments of their past and ensuring that, even when their minds fail them, their story is forever etched upon their skin.

Snake patterns also emerged during the sarp yaga which would burn all nagas began, to combat the heat some nagas grew snake patterns which regulate heat. (In nature, real life snakes use their patterns to regulate heat)

Snakes do no drink milk and please stop giving them it.

Milk is difficult for snakes to digest due to the respective sugars in milk. It causes bloating and even death in some snakes. Water however is a staple of their life. They only drink milk when they're dehydrated and end up dying or bloating issues later on. Let go of this stereotype.

edit: post title needs to be changed to snakes do not drink milk.

Sheshnaag Vansh Concept

Possession
"The eyes are a window to the soul”- Unknown
Yang Sankapu (Top sclera visible)
The danger comes from the person. The eye shifts upward, revealing the white above the iris. This may indicate the person is under an entity's influence.
Yin Sankapu (Bottom sclera visible)
The danger comes to the person. The eye shifts downward, revealing the white below the iris. This indicates the person is spiritually vulnerable, making them susceptible to possession, curses, or other supernatural causes.
AREM
The individual must undergo artificial REM (AREM). AREM induces REM (Rapid Eye Movement) and enables the spirit to exit the body. If AREM is successful, white smoke will emit from the eyes, and the eyes will return to normal.

Check second image for eye example

Sheshnaag vansh- These serpents are masters of Nirdavish making one go under Yognirda.

My possession concept also applies to the sheshnaag vansh

those who are controlled by Sheshnagas begin to dream and I will make more in depth explainations on types of nirdavish etc etc

the spirit can be any spirit or hypontization such as a sheshnaga

Unpopular Opinion: Naagin 3 was not that good.

It is way better in quality than our current seasons and the VFX are wonderous. It had an exciting premise just poor execution.

The starting episodes were interesting however after Jamini, Naagin 3 began to fall off. When I make the statement "fall off" I mean it. This is the primordial example of not stretching a show out to it's death and turned into Sass Bahu drama trying to recreate Yamini.

Kaat koot Kul
.
The Kuul Kaat kul is an almost extinct kul apart of the Ku sarp vansh. They are defined by a severe physical imbalance: the naags are born with two completely unequal heads. One massive, dominant head holds total control over the body's movement, venom, and physical strikes. The second, much smaller head is physically helpless but compensates with heightened spirituality.

They are imbalanced physically, and the two spirits are correlated in some manner.

Marrying someone with Kuul Kaat doosh places the doosh on your kundali, and therefore you become the bigger serpent who practically consumes your husband/wifes dosh.

Anyone from the kuul kaat kul is easily defined by their two heads and this symbol on their head or neck. (third image)

Shiv Naagin
Shivmani is Shiva's grief; however, the Shiv Naagin is the venom, poison, and anger of Shiva when he lost Sati. The anger, hatred, and Rudra form of Shiva manifested into the poison of the Shiv Naagin. If the Shiv Naagin were to fail to protect the Shivmani, she herself would burn in her own poison and fury.

Anger without reason only leads to death and failure.

The Shivmani is her reason, and without that reason she shall burn. She is bound to the mani, and she is an aspect of Rudra. She is the divine feminine rage; she is the femininity, and she is a form of Shakti.

Only after 1 kapla may she release the poison equal to the poison of Sadashiva (70,000 Hallahals)

Kulika (Gulika) Vansh:

Within the deepest shadowed cities of Paatal Lok, these naags maintain a flawless ledger of karma. Unlike humans, whose karma is written by those in Yamlok, Naags have their karma recorded by those of this vansh

They document every deed by dipping the formidable feathers of the enemy (cheel) into their own venom, which serves as ink.

Those who depart without a spouse or children have their life's story gathered and inscribed with venom. Alongside this process, Ashtanaag Kulika stand eternal watch over the treasures and manes of the departed.

Kulika vansh is responsible for the Naag Stumbhs; these Stumbhs are created on Earth when a naag influences the current world.

Shesha and Bela are the Stumbhs in the Laal tika mandir. However, some Nagas immerse themselves in the earth after death, as Nagalok does not accept them for loving a human. They become roots for the Naga Tree.

These Nagas are deeply connected to the earth; plants known as the Naga tree serve as a link to our world and Nagalok. Instead of roots, thousands of snakes uphold this connection. Each tree is connected to the next one.

Takshak Naag Concept

Video Version Above (Hindi)
Upvote to spread the word!

Takshak Naag & Naagins
The Takshak vansh fold their layered wings over their faces as an act of mercy and sovereign isolation; however, when attacked, they lift their wings and reveal their eyes. This turns the enemy into stone.

Shrouded eternally in the heavy shadow of their own wings, the serpents of this vansh cannot see AT ALL, yet they swore a sacred vow to Lord Shiva that the terrifying power bestowed upon them for protection would never be wielded for malevolent purposes.

While the eyes of an ordinary Naagin traditionally mirror the true face of her killer, the Takshak Naags and Naagins remember their existences in an entirely different manner.

As a Takshak naag/naagin grows older, the stolen or gifted memories they once utilized to shape-shift begin to condense deep within them; this becomes a Naagmani.

It is said that when this Naagmani is held up to the light, it acts like a cinematic camera passing through the feathers of their wings; its internal fractures and iridescent, shifting swirls project a vivid, moving tapestry of the serpent's memories, past deeds, and lost loves.

This Naagmani is the only light in the eternal darkness of their wings.

This Naagmani is held deep within the core of their wings, completely covered so that no outsider may ever touch it, serving as Shiva's ultimate gift to their bloodline and the living tale of their life.

Markaat is not a Takshak naagin

Naagin 8: Maut ka Anaat Saaya.
Inside the opulent room, a wealthy Naag Kumar stands near a massive, open arched window, looking out over his kingdom.
A cloaked figure emerges from the dark velvet curtains; inside, she doesn't make a sound. Her movements are fluid, almost mimicking a predator waiting for its prey.
She holds a single diya in her hands. The small flame shimmers, casting a warm glow upward against her veil.
We don't see her face. But we see her eyes.
The diya casts a shadow of flame on her eyes;s, she takes a forward step.
The king's eyes are filled with lust, and so he asks for a kiss.
She gently moves her mouth towards his neck, leaving a faint lipstick mark.
The diya blows out.
It cuts.
A heavy shroud of smoke rises into the grey sky. The Naag Kumar's anskar begins to crackle. From a high, shadowed balcony far above the courtyard, a cloaked woman stands.
Title card arises from the flame and smoke:
NAAGIN 8: MAUT KA ANAAT SAAYA
Is it truly a Naagin that's taking her revenge?

Takshak Naag Concept

Takshak Vansh
We have encountered the Medusa Tashikia concept multiple times, including once again in Season 6 as Nashikia. I revised it by building on the concepts already presented.

The Takshak vansh fold their layered wings over their faces as an act of mercy and sovereign isolation. They only unfurl their wings and reveal their faces to make a living statue of their enemy.

The Takshak vansh, shrouded in the shadow of their wings, cannot see, yet they vowed to Shiva that the power bestowed upon them for protection would never be wielded for malevolent purposes.

The eyes of a Naagin show the true face of their killer; however, the Takshak Naags & Naagins remember their lives in a different way.

However, there is one way that a Takshak Naag may remember their past: as a Takshak Naagin & Naag grows older, the stolen or gifted memories they used to shape-shift begin to condense. They migrate their memories into a Naagmani.

When held to light, the Naagmani acts like a camera, passing through the wings. The internal fractures and iridescent swirls shift to project a cinematic tapestry of a Naag or Naagin's memories, past, and love.

The Naagmani is held deep within their wings, covered so that no one may touch it. It is Shiva's gift to them and the tale of their life.

Concept on mahapadma naagin

Upvote to spread the word!!!
Video Version: https://www.reddit.com/r/NAAGIN_ColorsTV/s/HAqk19chDb

Amritkanya

On that night, the naags of the Kaylia naag kul released poison into the air. The Padma kul meant for healing started to perish. All of the nagas from the Padma and Mahapadma kul gathered at the feet of Mahanaag Padma and Mahanaag Mahapadma. At that moment, they were given a solution by Mahapadma.

A Mahapadma or Padma Naagin can modify her blood into a living elixir through the centuries-long consumption of thousands of rare jadi-butis and the worship of Devi Tulsi.

This process alters her biology, transforming her into an Amritkanya whose poison turns into Amrit, allowing a single bite to bring the dead to life.

Practically a vishkanya but inverted for the Padma/Mahapadma naagins, she may turn her blood into Amrit just like how a vishkanya can turn her blood into a poisonous fest.

Bharmas 5th head

When Lord Shiva at last reached the grand city of Kashi, he had been wandering the universe for ages to rid himself of his Bharma dosh after the removal of Bharmas 5th head. The skull that had been stuck to his hand fell and got rid of his dosh.

However, a great serpent (Mahapadma) collected this head along with his entire vansh, as the Padma and Mahapadma vansh were tied to Lord Bharma. Rani Padmavati, the consort of the naagraj of their state (Padma kul not vansh)

Padma began to lose his wife as she was slowly corrupted by the skull of Brahma's 5th head.
The head was kept as a relic on the crown of the Naagraja.

The gods cursed Padmavati.
“You shall live buried beneath the earth, forgotten by your vansh and kul, until the day pure compassion touches your venomous heart.”
The crown returned to the Mahapadma vansh.
Padma wept to Shiva and Brahma.
Padma made the decision to split his state (kul) from Mahapadma, which would remain under the rule of Mahapadma.
He later founded Padma Vansh, a Vansh that he would guide, not rule. No king, no queens, and no royalty.

Padmavati's Curse:
The following is a local legend which I connected to Padma naag, as the naagin in the story had the same name as Padma naga.
Years turned to centuries. Generations passed. Padmā grew weary of time itself. Yet in that very village, a poor girl named Malti began offering a bowl of milk at the termite mound. She had been taught by her grandmother to aid Naags and Naagins.

Malti was not rich, and so she kept offering the milk to Padmavati.

Padmavati drank the warm milk; the warmth reminded her of the moments she spent with her family, not as queen but as a mother and wife. On the full moon of Shravana, Padmavati appeared to Malti in a dream, and so she told Malti in a soft voice to return to the mound. When Malti returned the next day, she found the mound broken, the bowl empty, and a single lotus remained.

Padmavati returned to her husband and not as a queen but as a wife.
