Tarun Chopra presents in this book the soul of India which lies in its people, in their smiling eyes and in their religious devotion seeped in eternity. He tries to bring out this soul which lies buried beneath the layer of dust comprising of poverty, garbage and rubble. He successfully manages to bring to our notice the real jewel of this country- a country that is proud to have rubbed shoulders with some of the earliest civilizations.
Soul of India presents the faith of the people, truly a secular society, where everyday millions of people across the nation are involved with their religious rituals. It could be bathing in the holy rivers and ponds, praying to the sun god at dawn, or lighting oil lamps at dusk. A must-read for all seeking to unleash the real India. |
