Subrat SaurabhAuthor of Kuch Woh PalThe author is a commoner in the strictest sense. He might be well qualified with a doctorate in engineering and the qualification definitely has provided him with the necessary tools to live this life like any other mortal around him. But, does this simply make him eligible to attempt and write a book on such a sublime subject – devotion and divinity?

The author is a commoner in the strictest sense. He might be well qualified with a doctorate in engineering and the qualification definitely has provided him with the necessary tools to live this life like any other mortal around him. But, does this simply make him eligible to attempt and write a book on such a sublime subject – devotion and divinity? The shortcomings are many including ignorance in topics of such magnificence and being not even conversant with Sanskrit language. Despite this, with an innate quality of being devoted to the Sublime Architect of this world and with a constant and an ardent prayer in praise of HIM, the author had made an effort and completed the book – of course, a short one and for soft reading by both young and old.

The book is styled as a story-like narration, fusing two yugas – Treta and Dwapur yugas with an underlying theme of ‘Devotion and Divinity’. It is fashioned from an amusing thought in author’s mind that strongly urged him to fathom deep into the past and enjoy whatever it could grasp. Certainly, it worked and did find its own reflection in both the yugas. The result is profound! Hidden inside a vanara in Kishkindha, the mind could wander with devotion
The book is styled as a story-like narration, fusing two yugas – Treta and Dwapur yugas with an underlying theme of ‘Devotion and Divinity’. It is fashioned from an amusing thought in author’s mind that strongly urged him to fathom deep into the past and enjoy whatever it could grasp. Certainly, it worked and did find its own reflection in both the yugas. The result is profound! Hidden inside a vanara in Kishkindha, the mind could wander with devotion on Anjaneya. It could witness with bewilderment the unflinching faith of the mighty vanara towards the divine Sri Rama. In the form of a gopika, it could also cherish intimacy with the gopikas in Brindavan and relish their deep dedication and transcendental love towards the Divine Sri Krishna. Thus, behind this seemingly simple imaginative narration, the author subtly infuses sublime truths about the need to develop unegoistic and unselfish devotion on Divine Almighty to lead a purposeful life in this mortal world.
Do we know a truth – the secret of our lives? It is our mercurial mind that ties us to everything that we do or imagine to do. You try to control the mind and its deputies, the indriyas (sensory organs), and you attain success at any stage in this short life. A success, let us not measure in terms of a materialistic gain only. Bhagavad Gita was originally scripted in Sanskrit – the language you and I may not know – and it is a reservoir of divine truths.

A success, let us not measure in terms of a materialistic gain only. Bhagavad Gita was originally scripted in Sanskrit – the language you and I may not know – and it is a reservoir of divine truths. Is a language really a barrier for us? No. Let us imagine ourselves to be on the vast shore of an ocean eagerly and hungrily picking up pebbles of knowledge to unravel the mystery of this life – particularly of our life in human form – through this Gita, the song of the unknown Creator of this beautiful world.
