He has always had a passion for writing poetry. An introvert by nature, he has used both Hindi and English languages to express his innermost thoughts. He wrote one of his earlier poems in the 1960s, when he was deeply affected by a famine in India. He believes that if prose is the heart of literature, then poetry is its soul.
An eminent civil engineer by profession, he considers himself a poet at heart. He has devoted himself completely to writing on his postretirement in 1996. His contributions were published in local journals. He now lives in Kalimpong, a suburban hill station in the Darjeeling district in India. He has taken to bed after a fall in last November and can barely speak or write anymore. He lives with his relatives and is being cared for by Anju, his daughter-in-law. People close to him fondly refer to him as the walking-talking English dictionary.
It has been his lifelong dream to publish his book, for which he has dedicated his life postretirement. He rarely used the Internet to research the material for this book. He has worked on this book for at least ten years, for which he has spent ample time on researching and perfecting the content day after day and even burning the midnight oil. The book started off as a prose, and he has then converted it to poetry in 2007. Most of the prose material is still present in his computer.
He is deeply inspired by “Bharat Milap,” which is a section in the Hindu epic Ramayana, and at one time, he knew it by heart. He has done extensive research on various faiths and is an ardent reader of the Old Testament. This work is greatly inspired by the Ramayana and the Bible.visualizza meno
