A/N: I want to clarify that Harry Potter is in his 6th Year in the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Also, Sirius Black was in a magical coma in the St. Mungos for more than a year, since the time he got stunned in the Department of Mysteries and fell into the Veil. This incident happened at the beginning of the fifth year of Harry's schooling instead of occurring at the end as per the canon. This is where my fanfic diverts from the canon. The Restoration Ceremony of Tom Riddle Jr and the death of Sirius Black happened within a short span of time from each other, and Black himself got revived within 48 hours from his time of death.
The Sirius' Dilemma
"Ash to ash, bones to flesh, kin of the foe, fangs of the foe, blood of the enemy, bones of the father, blood blood blood"
"bones bones bones bones bones"
Whispering, embodied, distant voices can be heard from the Veil, which is right now under a concentrated gaze from the Hogwarts Headmaster. He can hear the voices constantly from the arched door of death, repeating the some words again and again. He feels that something has gone invariably wrong when Sirius returned. As he walks around it, he can still not understand how Sirius came back. He walks back away to the exit of the room, and glances back again at the fluttering Veil. Sighing he just leaves the room without noticing a shimmering emerald glow around the Veil.
"From The Blood of the pure kin
As the Foe arises with the malicious energy
The Darkness will prevail unless the purest of the heart
Arises as the son will only gain
And won't feel any more pain
The blood of his own will raise its fang
The Brood of his own will raise its cane
Ash to Bones, Ash to Flesh,
Bones to Bones , Kin of his own,
The Dark Lord will mark his kin once again his own.
Rising the power he never understood."
Suddenly, the eyes rolled back and the woman with messy curls and rounded eyeglasses, was chocking in her own saliva. Headmaster Dumbledore had just entered inside the office, along with his group of teachers, Prof. Minerva McGonagall, Prof. Severus Snape, Prof. Filius Flitwick, Vector, and Prof. Pomona Sprout. Upon entering he heard another prophecy from his in-house Seer cum Professor. Sybill Trelawney, who went into a trance in the company of his teachers and an ex-teacher, Mr Remus John Lupin, who was already there inside his office. There was a pin drop silence. Everyone could hear the rustling of the trees outside the window, the chirping of the birds, and even the sounds of the breathing of the occupants inside Dumbledore's office.
"uhh! Is everything alright? Why are you all looking at me like that?" Sybill Trelawney was nothing but fraud. This is what everyone except Headmaster Dumbledore thought in the school. So to see her, predicting something, stunned everyone inside the office, except the headmaster again. After all, this is the third time, she had predicted something,that may again come true. Although, the grave implications of the prophecy had yet to strike upon the brilliant minds, Professor Dumbledore somehow felt maybe there is more than just hope after hearing it.
"Headmaster! Was that a real prophecy?"
"How the h-I mean did Sybill just gave another prophecy?"
"Sir, did I just predicted something, AGAIN?"
"What does that mean though?"
"SILENCE" The Headmaster came and sat on his chair. He requested everyone to sit in the office and then said
"It seems, yes she did. I feel I finally am able to understand something. Although I am not sure anything of it as of now, but everyone, I feel that surge of power that we all felt around us , sometime ago, may have something to do with this prophesy. Are you guys aware of the Serpent Energy, also known as the Kundalini Energy?"
Looking at the stumped teachers except Lupin, everyone else nodded their heads in denial. Lupin then asked the headmaster, "Are you talking about the Hinduism concept of Kundalini where they talk about different energy points inside our body? But I had heard that the energy is more of spiritual than being more magical in terms of application?"
"But Remus, Don't we all hone and use our inner core to practise magic?"
"Yes Headmaster we do, but Kundalini is a spiritual awakening. Not everyone achieves it and some people in the process of achieving it, go even crazy, if they don't understand it."
"Exactly Remus. Now let me explain to all of you the concept of Kundalini. Kundalini is basically the energy that is coiling in inside each of us, regardless of our magical status at the base of our body, that is the spinal cord. Even as a baby, our brain and spinal cord forms first when we are inside the womb of our mother. But the energy flows from the lower torso of our body, starting from the end of our spinal cord. That space of energy over there at the spinal cord is called Muladhara Chakra. The Word itself means Root so this is the base chakra, and from there it goes upward in a spiraling manner towards different points of our body. Hence the name Kundalini, which itself means coiled or spiraling energy. That is a latent feminine energy inside all of us and is also known as Serpent energy. She is the Energy Force and the creator of all magical cores inside every magical being. Countries with ancient civilizations in their past like India, China, Japan, Greece are aware of it and from what I have heard, these countries do not even use wands for practising magic. Their kids use wandless magic and are thoroughly advanced in terms of treating some of the rarest and incurable magical maladies, which are there in their books. Some of them had come to UK through the magical lines of Patils, Potters, and Abbotts.
"But Albus, if it is indeed the force inside of us, why we never had books on it here? Why we never read upon it? "
"Minerva, That is because of our inclusivity and our pride sometimes of not accepting other's magical status. How do you think, purebloods will feel or react if we include the books of those researchers who do not even an ounce of magical blood in them?"
"Are you saying-?"
"Yes, the students in some of these Asian schools of Wizardry are not magical by birth. They channel their core into higher energy frequencies and are really exceptionally talented in their respective fields. I had been in touch with some of the ex-students of Mahoutokoro School of Magic of Japan, and Uagadou School of Magic In Uganda, who are currently employed in the British Ministry of Magic and MACUSA. Not only that, I had to really work hard to get my hand on some of the earliest manuscripts of Tantracism and other philosophical studies of Vedism and Buddhism."
Then Professor Dumbledore told what the unspeakable Mannie Mamore had seen in the Ministry of Magic some time ago. He said that he is trying to find the identity of that being seen by Ms. Mamore for past few months. His research had brought him to different races and ethnicities, yet there is no mention of the being anywhere of whatsoever. That was the point, when an unspeakable, who's identity cannot reveal informed him to look into the ancient manuscripts of China and India. He now knows not only the science but the spiritual inflections and deflections of creating horcruxes as well. Obviously he cannot tell the last point to his teachers, but the fact, You-Know-Who has not understood the implications of the restoration of his own body and the Prophesy made just now had brought another link on connecting the return of Sirius Black. This was definitely explained to his teachers, who were stunned, as well as impressed once again with the brilliance of the genius (old crackpot in Severus's mind, yet impressed as well).
"But what is the connection of that Being seen in the Ministry of Magic with the Kundalini and Sirius returning? " Severus asked.
"Everything. See when Sirius's soul came back to the living world, there had been a connection made with his own set of Kundalini chakras in his body. The chakras which he never focussed or even activated while alive, are now setting this pulses of energy in him and around us as well. I somehow suspect he must have made a connection with that world, which we see only after we live. We wizards don't believe in the concept of hell and heaven, and of some omniscient beings like muggles do. But what if those muggles had already pinpointed the right place where these beings could exist."
"Albus, you are saying god exist.?" Pomono asked the headmaster.
"Yes and no. I meant what if this one-thousand eyed being is connected to the revival of Sirius Black?! I was trying to find the source, where the information on the existence of such thing was there, but that university, that I found used to be in India, was destroyed by some Middle Eastern invaders of that time, the time when Buddhism was highly practised. Lots of books, manuscripts and papers of that time were written on different sources of spiritualism, religion and magic. Magic wasn't used to be the way it is now. It was a way of life and the entire library of Nalanda University got destroyed, where we had tons of books."
"Is there any way to know, Albus?"
"Yes Minerva, It seems we had some textbooks in South Korea. They might or might not even have the answer we are looking for. But we have to try."
There was some silence after this long discussion, when-
"So the return of the old mutt is related to the unseen being, the prophesy, and to the dark lord's restoration as well? Is that what you are implying, Albus?" The squeaky but higher voice of the Charms Professor voiced the question that was going in everyone's mind.
"Yes Filius, and the answers that I can get at this point is from the man himself. Sirius Black."
"But aren't we supposed to prepare Harry Potter and ourselves for the war, instead of doing this research?" Albus, you can always ask Sirius Black this anytime later on."
"Filius, the key to win this battle, I feel somehow is Sirius Black and his return to the living world. The dilemma of solving this question of who, and how he returned needs to be find out. "
"A Sirius' Dilemma, indeed." Remus smirked indeed in his mind thinking of the fun, his friend could have with this pun.
Some few hours ago at night,
The sounds, screams, and shrieks that were echoing out from the pain, grief and anguish of the souls inside the death chamber had send replicating magical outbursts at the British Ministry of Magic. The air around the Veil was dark, menacing, and smelled of death.
"blood of the enemy, bones of the father, blood blood blood" Whispering, faint , deadly, painful and anguish sounds emanating from the Veil.
"Rising the power he never understood."
Those painful and heartbreaking hazel eyes, that had seen the death approaching, finally opened…
