New Delhi, India – At a time when artificial intelligence is generating text in milliseconds, Piyush Goel is taking a pen—and even a needle—to redefine what it means to write. Known as the “Mirror Image Man of India,” Goel has stunned the world by handcrafting entire books in mirror image—every word reversed, every sentence mirrored, all by hand. In doing so, he has not only broken records but built a legacy of precision, patience, and passion.
From Pen to Needle: The Birth of a Global Record
Born in 1967, Piyush Goel is a literary innovator who holds the world’s first record for writing an entire book—Harivansh Rai Bachchan’s Madhushala—using a needle, and in mirror image format. Each word was etched with the sharp point of determination, creating a manuscript that must be read through a mirror to be understood. This incredible feat earned him international acclaim and set a precedent for literary craftsmanship.
Scriptures Reversed, Spirit Restored
Goel’s mission is not merely about showcasing a rare skill—it’s about preserving India’s rich literary and spiritual heritage through a unique artistic lens. Among the sacred texts and legendary works he has rewritten in reverse:
- Bhagavad Gita – A pioneering mirrored version of the Hindu spiritual classic.
- Sundara Kanda – The saga of Lord Hanuman retold in ink and reflection.
- Sai Satcharitra – A devotional retelling of Sai Baba’s life in mirrored script.
- Durga Saptashati – A spiritual ode to feminine power, written in reverse.
- Meri Ikyavan Kavitayein – A poetic homage to former PM Atal Bihari Vajpayee’s works, reflected literally and symbolically.
Each work is done entirely by hand—no software, no shortcuts—only unwavering focus and cultural reverence.
