Enter Mayong not as tourist but as witness under oath. Chapter Four of The Mayong Times traces the modern arc (1950s–2015) as a tenebrous palimpsest where diesel modernity smears itself over inviolable rites. Here, Baak and Jokhini are products—engineered appetites from archaic liturgies—and Bira and Ghorapak are guards, old as dread, policing borders the state cannot map. Four vantages form this dossier: a bureaucrat with diesel breath, a mother bargaining with scarlet tongues, a filmmaker drunk on reason, and a boy who mistook virality for victory. Each believes documentation redeems; each learns that witnessing is complicity and images can kill. This is a documentary in the old sense—an affidavit—stitched from letters, reports, recovered tapes, and the susurrus of villages that refuse erasure. Expect philosophical cruelty, dark humor, and heart-wrecking reckonings; expect eschatological arithmetic where debts are settled in blood and lineage. Read with reverence or close the bloody book. Mayong does not perform for you; it endures you. Proceed, then, knowing that some names are withheld, some coordinates redacted, and some truths will only arrive when the lights go out.

Meer oor die skrywer

Mayong has never been a place for the faint-hearted. It exists between the living and the forgotten, between worship and warning. While much of the world measures progress in screens and satellites, Mayong measures it in silence—the kind that falls after rituals, the kind that precedes consequence.

This chapter—The Mayong Times: Chapter Four—was born from a fascination that borders fear. Writing it required listening to whispers that came from both folklore and the deep undercurrent of Assam’s collective memory. Some stories came willingly. Others resisted, demanding payment in sleepless nights and hesitant words.

I did not invent Mayong’s darkness; I merely gave it language. The people, the rituals, the unseen guardians—they belong to a cultural truth older than ink and far more honest than fiction allows. If you find parts of this book unsettling, then it has served its purpose.

To those who read beyond the words—remember, Mayong is not a story. It is a state of awareness, and once you’ve entered, you do not truly leave.
