IN THE COMPANY OF SAINTS AND MYSTICS

Based on an extensive research and close companionship with a number of Yogis and Mystics, this book is a rare collection of mystical experiential dimensions, and throws light on the esoteric aspects of Indian Philosophy and Shastras along with their hidden meaning which can never be interpreted logically.

I understand that many here will straight away dismiss mysticism as a bunch of nonsense, but for those who are interested are always welcome. This book can even serve as a meaningful guide on everyone's spiritual journey and help them get a glimpse of the world beyond through the subjective science of spiritualism.

Gopinath Kaviraj on whom the title of Mahamahopadhyaya was conferred by the British Government in 1934, is regarded as an authority on Indological studies. Equally at home in English, Hindi, Sanskrit and Bengali and an unparalleled combination of traditional and modern India and Western learning and spiritual wisdom he was among those renaissance figures who in the midst of colonial rule and its attendant denigration of Indian tradition helped to revive India's pride in her past and infuse it with the best tradition of British liberation.

An insatiable thirst for knowledge coupled with an open and analytical mind led him to search for something new in the ancient Sanskrit texts and various commentaries on them. He wrote with a rare insight whether it was on Tantra, Philosophy, Religion or culture. His biographic in content, have the flavour of real literature.
