The Cave of Freedom

"This is a chronicle of that spiritual odyssey, which is llike no other one. You have to read it." - Francois Gautier, author and editor-in-chief, La Revue de l'Inde

Bodhi had always been there deep inside him, like a throbbing light. Vivek grew up talking to him, really. The light never stopped throbbing, though it was feeble at times. When he went places, fell in love, let down those whom he loved, got enmeshed in fabulous business deals or, lapsed into looking beyond the end of nowhere, Vivek felt Bodhi's company, now intensely creative, now excruciating.

Bodhi was always there, Vivek's other "I". Vivek's travels - straddling countries and continents from Parur to Paris to Palm Springs - constitute a travel into himself.

This is a chronicle of that spiritual odyssey, recapturing its contours, not much more, making a fateful attempt to grasp its essence. The essence is essentially, elusive. Its charm, as much as its exasperation, runs through this blend of fact, fantasy and fiction.
