New Delhi, India – In a world where writing is increasingly digital, one man is rewriting the rules—literally. Piyush Goel, famously known as the “Mirror Image Man of India”, is captivating readers, thinkers, and artists worldwide with his remarkable and one-of-a-kind contribution to literature: handwritten mirror image books.
Born in 1967, Goel is more than just an author—he’s an innovator, a thinker, and a craftsman of the written word. From world record-breaking feats to spiritual classics and motivational writing, Goel has transformed reverse writing into a powerful symbol of creativity, devotion, and discipline.
Writing What Few Dare Even to Read
Goel’s signature literary art is writing entire books in mirror image—each character carefully reversed by hand, not by software or stencils. His approach requires immense focus and patience. But what makes it even more astonishing is how he writes: sometimes, with a needle instead of a pen.
In 2012, Goel made history by rewriting Harivansh Rai Bachchan’s legendary poem collection “Madhushala” using a needle—becoming the first person in the world to create a needle-written mirror image book.
India’s Sacred Texts – Reflected and Revered
Piyush Goel’s bibliography is not only vast, but spiritually and culturally profound. His handwritten mirror image works include:
- The Bhagavad Gita – A revered Hindu scripture, completely reversed, word-for-word.
- Sundara Kanda from Ramcharitmanas – A mirrored tribute to Lord Hanuman’s valor.
- Sai Satcharitra – Retelling the life of Sai Baba through mirrored devotion.
- Durga Saptashati – Capturing the power of the divine feminine.
- Meri Ikyavan Kavitayein – Honoring Atal Bihari Vajpayee through a mirror image of his 51 iconic poems.
Each project is a handcrafted manuscript—no graphic aid, no printing—just pure dedication and brilliance.
A Mind that Reflects Much More
Beyond his mirrored marvels, Piyush Goel is a man of many hats:
- Motivational Author – His book “Sochana too Padega hi” offers 110 original motivational quotes, designed to empower readers to challenge societal norms and think differently.
- Academic Contributor – With three published research papers in international mathematics journals, Goel demonstrates that his intellectual range extends far beyond literature.
- Cartoonist – Goel’s satirical sketches add a visual dimension to his social and political commentary.
- Cricket Umpire – He brings fairness and focus to the field as an active local umpire.
- Corporate Veteran – With 25+ years in the private sector, Goel merges the disciplines of business with boundless creativity.
Recognized, Respected, and Revolutionary
For his unique contributions to literature and motivation, Goel has received widespread acclaim, including the Holder Republic Award. His work has been highlighted by Hindustan Times, Amar Ujala, Dainik Bhaskar, and several other national outlets.
Yet, what makes him stand out is not just what he does—but why he does it. Goel’s mission is to revive India’s literary legacy, especially in regional and spiritual literature, through unconventional means that resonate across generations.
Why His Work Matters Now More Than Ever
At a time when literature is threatened by algorithms and attention spans are shrinking, Piyush Goel offers a quiet revolution. His mirror image writing invites readers to slow down, to reflect—both figuratively and literally—and to reconnect with the tactile, mindful experience of reading and writing.
His work proves that writing backward can be a way of moving forward—not only for literature but for humanity.
