About This Book

A visitor encounters an enlightened guru in an Indian monastery and receives Upanishadic teachings that portray the visible world as illusion, urge separation of the self from the body, and emphasize timeless present awareness as the means to truth. The guru supplies manuscripts and the life account of a revered predecessor to illustrate these lessons. Lush, sensory descriptions of moonlit gardens, frescoed verandas, and humid plains alternate with contemplative passages. Episodes juxtapose ascetic instruction and mystical discourse with scenes of regional life and princely prosperity, blending ritual detail, landscape, and parable to explore aspiration, renunciation, and the pursuit of self-knowledge.
