About the Author

At the age of fifteen he was attracted to the mighty Himalayan ranges and the source of the river Ganga, his passion for adventure in rock climbing and mountaineering provoking such an attraction. His long journey of more than two thousand kilometres led to a different journey altogether, after he encountered his Himalayan master on board the same train as a young boy! Unknown to the young lad his journey had already been scripted long before it began! The author is presently serving in the Indian Army.
