To begin with, the notion of narration means the theme within a narrative framework, and the nature of religious belief supports the development of the story from the first part in a significant way. Martel implemented the theme of narration from the beginning of the novel in the author's note. Mr. Adirubasamy presents the story of Pi as “…a story that will make you believe in God” (Martel x). Readers come to view Pi's survival as a fictional story, told by a fictional author. Martel uses the author's note to create the notion of narration and uses the interpretation of narration to reveal the painful, uninteresting and horrible experiences of Pi's journey. This is crucial since in the second part, readers discover the Pi's exceptional botanical discovery. The island is carnivorous covered in algae, which Pi and Richard leave once Pi makes the shocking discovery. The island is literally Pi's hallucination, as he gets weaker by the minute. However, figuratively speaking, the island refers to Martel's main idea behind the narrative: holding on to the will to live and keeping faith and hope alive. The protagonist of the novel: Piscine Molitor Patel (Pi), firmly believes in God. In the first part, the adult Pi tells us his story about his introduction to Christianity and Islam. By discovering these religions and listening to their fables, Pi is reconciled with God and decides to practice these three religions simultaneously. He is even seen asking his parents for his own prayer rug, proving that he is serious about practicing three distinct religions. He developed the habit of praying and regularly attending the mosque, church and mandir. He remembers that the Imam told him: “If you... middle of paper ...... you want to survive and remain reconciled with God. Pi also says, “I was giving up. I would have given up if a voice hadn't been heard in my heart. The voice said: “I will not die. I refuse it. I will survive this nightmare. I will defy all odds, no matter how great they may be. So far, I have survived, miraculously. Now I will turn the miracle into routine. The amazing will be seen every day. I will do all the work necessary. Yes, as long as God is with me, I will not die” (Martel 163-164). Despite the circumstances in which Pi felt like giving up, he remembers God in his heart and chooses to live. He does not lose hope and clings to the will to survive because he believes God is with him. The two thematic themes of narration and religious belief accumulate Pi's survival at sea in his youth due to his religion, his fables, and his will to survive thanks to God..
