VOICES ON NATURE AND MINDFULNESS
“The whisper of the pines, the smell of the damp earth, the silence of the snow – these are the heartwood of the hills.” — Ruskin Bond
“The Himalaya is as much about the spirit as about landscapes... it is a reflection of something inside us.” — Bill Aitken, Footloose in the Himalaya
“The mountain air was rife with damp wood-smoke... A ritual that goes on timelessly, to herald a day of newness.” — Namita Gokhale, Never Never Land
"To find a book that captures the simple, honest beauty of the hills and gives you a space to reflect on it is a rare gift… like a walk in a deodar forest—quiet, profound, and full of peace." — Walks with Nature

Sunshine is everywhere…Can we wake to each moment?
Sunshine is everywhere. We have only to open our hearts to see through the clouds that cover a radiant sun. As we slow down what is deep within has a chance to surface. We realise that all moments are taken care of and nothing is lacking. All feelings of separation and darkness vanish.
Today, each passing moment suggests an evolutionary acceleration and movement. Is some radical
Sunshine is everywhere…Can we wake to each moment?
Sunshine is everywhere. We have only to open our hearts to see through the clouds that cover a radiant sun. As we slow down what is deep within has a chance to surface. We realise that all moments are taken care of and nothing is lacking. All feelings of separation and darkness vanish.
Today, each passing moment suggests an evolutionary acceleration and movement. Is some radical new intervention taking us towards a newer consciousness and wholeness? Do we sense a mysterious smile that dances moment to moment challenging us? Perhaps we must be awake to these moments and venture on to a sunlit path.
This book is a selection of writings from the author’s journals with photographs from his travels. A miscellany, they touch upon a range of issues that challenge, intrigue or amuse—from light-hearted daily occurrences at his rural home in the Kumaon hills to events affecting each of us deeply at multiple levels. They reflect on our individual longings and social interactions and raise questions pertaining to nature and environment, an ever-deepening planetary crisis and a continual quest for the spiritual.
‘…will bring sunshine and light into the heart of readers.’
Tara Jauhar, Sri Aurobindo Ashram, Delhi Branch
‘…a wealth of good sense and inspiration. I have pleasure in commending the book to nature lovers wherever they may be…’
