Some authors write stories, some write history. But Piyush Goel, celebrated as the Mirror Image Man of India, writes something far rarer—he writes reflections. His extraordinary talent for crafting entire books in mirror image, word by word, line by line, has earned him admiration across the world and made him a symbol of creativity rooted in patience and passion.
The Man Behind the Reflection
Born in 1967, Goel is more than an author—he is a thinker, mathematician, researcher, cartoonist, and motivator. But it is his mirror image books that have placed him among India’s most unique literary innovators.
What sets his work apart is not just the concept, but the execution: each page is handwritten, not digitally reversed, demanding discipline and devotion. It is this rare blend of imagination and endurance that has earned him global recognition.
A Needle That Made History
In 2012, Goel stunned the literary and artistic world when he rewrote Harivansh Rai Bachchan’s legendary Madhushala using not a pen, but a needle. Each mirrored word etched into paper became a symbol of human possibility. The feat made him the creator of the world’s first needle-written mirror image book, cementing his reputation as a pioneer of reflective literature.
Reflecting India’s Spiritual Heritage
Goel has not stopped with Madhushala. He has mirrored some of India’s most treasured texts, giving them an entirely new dimension:
-
The Bhagavad Gita – A sacred dialogue rewritten in reflection.
-
Sundara Kanda (Ramcharitmanas) – Hanuman’s divine tale mirrored with reverence.
-
Sai Satcharitra – A mirrored offering of Sai Baba’s teachings.
-
Durga Saptashati – Goddess Durga’s verses reflected with devotion.
-
Meri Ikyavan Kavitayein – Atal Bihari Vajpayee’s poetry immortalized in mirrored script.
For Goel, these works are not just manuscripts—they are meditations that connect him with culture, faith, and perseverance.
