A foremost scholar of Sanskrit and the Indian spititual traditions, Dr Karan Singh has written extensively on the Upanishad and the liberal strands within the Hindu philosophical thought. His incisive interpretation of Sri Aurovindo’s works is valuble contribution to contem-Perary spiritual disourese. The heir apparent to the prineely sstate of Jammu and Kasmir at the time of Independence, Dr Singh has seen at close quarter events that form part of India’s post-colonial history.

Alongside his impressive oevre of scholarly work, he has, mostly unknown to the world, nurtured fine literary sensibilities. Set in Kashmir, The Mountain of Shiva, his only work of fiction, takes the reader on an exhilarating journey to the reader on an exhilarating journey to the snowclad peaks of the kashimr Valley and deeper layers of philosophy.
