Enriching Hindi literature, philosophy

'Kashi Marnanmukti', a Hindi philosophic novel based on the spiritual journey of a Chandaal is written by Manoj Thakkar and Rashmi Chhazed. The story based on the life of its protagonist 'Maha' who in the course of his spiritual journey to find his Guru, finds enlightenment and touches the height of divinity. Today Indian generation is getting diverted towards western civilization when the west itself is looking upon Indian culture and India's spiritual teachings. The novel includes messages from Vedas, Puranas and Upanishads which seem difficult to comprehend to today's generation in their original form while here that same content is much more understandable since it is available in a simpler narrative form like a story. These epics have been in existence for ages together and this book follows the same path enriching Hindi literature and philosophy in its journey for enlightening the people through its messages and would be 'amar' in the minds of people.

It signifies aloud that you are born to realize that you and the energy that created you are inseparable. 'Guru, god and self are one'. The work is permeated by what may be called as the zenith that a man can touch during his life span, irrespective of the background to which he belongs. This book does not provide any technique of life transformation rather it is an effort to enable each one of us to understand ourselves, to realise our obscured potential by constantly learning and developing insights into one's life purely with the vision to reimburse the best back to our society.
