"I will refrain from providing extensive details about each of them, as it is essential for you to explore and uncover their significance on your own."

"However, I will introduce you to the foundational level, known as D.U.1 or the mortal dimension. It is the realm in which you currently reside, consisting of ten realms, ten planes, and a single universe."

"In addition to D.U.1, there are higher levels such as D.U.2, D.U.3, D.U.4, and finally, the pinnacle known as D.U.5 or the 'DEVA' Dimension. D.U.5 holds a unique significance, representing the highest level a D.U. can attain. Collectively, these interconnected levels comprise the vast and intricate tapestry known as the cosmos."

"Now, let's shift our focus to the cosmic hierarchy. It is said that when the cosmos was born, it bestowed existence upon a select few extraordinary beings to oversee and maintain balance within its realms. These revered beings are known as the 'DEVA,' and the mere mention of their name holds immense power, capable of elevating others to godlike status."

"At the very pinnacle of this cosmic hierarchy resides the Trinity, the first three Devas born along with the cosmos a triumvirate of Devas who occupy the highest echelons of power, wisdom, beauty or any other aspects within the cosmos. None can surpass them in terms of any aspect"

"After that, the cosmos created everything with the aid of the Trinity, during that time the cosmos give birth to the fourth Deva then a succession of Devas came into being. The cosmos would give birth to a new Deva at regular intervals or when it deemed it necessary."

"These subsequent Devas held distinct positions, each with its own unique role. No other being could ascend to become a Deva, as they were born directly from the cosmic essence and possessed immortality, impervious to death."

"Despite their invincibility, the Devas were renowned for their peaceful nature and refrained from interfering in the cosmic order, unless faced with threats that endangered its very existence."

"Following the Devas, another race emerged from the cosmic realm to maintain balance, known as the 'Asuras.' While they held a similar level of power to the Devas, they fell short in comparison to the first four Devas."

"Although the Asuras also originated from the cosmic essence, they lacked the immortality bestowed upon the Devas. While they could live for eternity, they were susceptible to death, a vulnerability that bred resentment and envy towards the Devas."

"The Asuras' inherent nature inclined them towards chaos, driven by insatiable greed and an unquenchable desire for more."

"Nevertheless, the Trinity did not suppress the Asuras, as long as their actions did not pose a threat to the cosmos itself. Until such time that the cosmos faced peril, the Asuras refrained from engaging in destructive pursuits."

"After the Asuras, the authority lies with the Deities like myself, beings created by the Devas, along with the Danavas who was brought forth by the Asuras. And after us, comes beings mightier than the gods, then comes the top powerful gods and the cycle goes on until it reaches beings with no power"

"This encompasses the extent of knowledge I can offer at this juncture. Further revelations, if made, would exact a toll on both you and myself, as I am bound by certain rules that restrict the dissemination of additional information."

"The cosmos, in its grand design, will inevitably require its own form of compensation, surpassing your current comprehension. It is prudent for you to embark on a personal journey of exploration and understanding to acquire knowledge, as it is through your own endeavours that true enlightenment is found."

"I hope this explanation has provided you with a clearer understanding. Now, let us proceed to discuss why the cosmos began bestowing individuals with the abilities of different desires."

"So, the story unfolds in (D.U)5, when a realm adorned with untold treasures emerged, captivating the attention of the most formidable beings residing there. It was a common occurrence, as the cosmos had crafted realms brimming with riches."

"As expected, numerous beings, including myself and a select few deities, ventured into these realms. However, to our astonishment, something unprecedented awaited us amidst the treasures—a rarity of such magnitude that it rivalled the blessings bestowed by the trinity."

"It was none other than the immortal essence, a substance that rendered a being nearly imperceptible and invulnerable unless specific conditions were met. The conditions could be dictated by the one who absorbed the essence, such as being susceptible only to mortal beings or succumbing solely to the trinity's own hands or any entity within the vast cosmos."

"Unbeknownst to us, an individual had already stumbled upon the immortal essence, oblivious to its true significance, dismissing it as inconsequential. Even though such an invaluable find went unnoticed, the realm remained bustling with commerce, for even seemingly insignificant items held substantial worth within that domain."

"To deceive and profit from unsuspecting patrons, that shrewd individual established a shop within the realm, peddling a variety of items"

"Given the presence of powerful beings, instances of theft or dishonesty were virtually non-existent, as every individual cherished their reputation and upheld mutual respect"

"However, this fragile equilibrium would soon be shattered by the emergence of an item so priceless that it could drive even the most distinguished beings to forsake their own dignity."

"At first, the item went unnoticed, as only a select few individuals were aware of the existence and significance of the immortal essence. Even those who laid eyes upon it failed to recognize its true nature, and so it sat upon the shelf, ignored and overlooked."

"However, this state of indifference abruptly changed when an unexpected customer approached the shopkeeper, expressing a keen interest in acquiring the item."

"Caught off-guard by this unforeseen turn of events, the shopkeeper, who had long given up hope of finding a buyer, felt an irresistible surge of greed, envisioning the prospect of maximizing his profits."

"To his astonishment, the customer swiftly agreed to the price offered, leaving no room for negotiation. Before the shopkeeper could raise any objections or questions, the individual snatched the immortal essence from his grasp, placed the agreed-upon sum on the desk, and vanished into the bustling crowd."

"As it turned out, the purchaser was none other than an 'Asura,' a race known for their insatiable desires and relentless pursuit of acquisition."

"The Asuras, driven by their perpetual discontentment, consistently sought out events like this, even if they possessed no genuine need for the items."

"Their motivation stemmed from the aspiration to obtain rare and extraordinary artifacts, despite the nearly insurmountable odds. Such endeavours fuelled their hope, and they persisted in their pursuits, undeterred by the challenges that lay ahead."

"The reason the Asura refrained from absorbing the essence right there in the realm and suppressed his greed was primarily due to the time-consuming process of absorption"

"Recognizing that anyone could potentially snatch the essence during this vulnerable phase, he chose to depart quietly and retreat to his lair. There, in the solitude and safety of his domain, he planned to gradually and discreetly assimilate the essence, fully capitalizing on its immense value."

"For a member of their race, The immortal essence held such significance for the Asura that it surpassed even the value of their own lives"

"It was one of the rare commodities that rendered them nearly invincible, enabling them to confront Devas without the looming fear of death"

"Desperate to acquire this prized possession, the Asura were willing to go to any lengths, leveraging their formidable capabilities, to gain an advantage and attain parity with their divine counterparts that the cosmos didn't bestow them with"

"As he neared the exit, the Asura struggled to contain his mounting excitement. The prospect of finally absorbing the essence and facing the Devas without the looming spectre of death filled him with anticipation"

"He envisioned himself as the preeminent powerhouse of his race, poised to ascend to unmatched heights. Unbeknownst to him, however, a fellow Asura had already set his sights on the coveted item within the shop."
