Essays on life and tradition in Sanskrit

Mumuksha brings together short essays on issues drawn from life and tradition, each followed by a moral teaching. The publisher description places the collection in the context of modern Sanskrit literature and contemporary Indian English writing, noting its connection to themes raised in Kiriti Sengupta’s chapbook Reflections on Salvation. Its pairing of reflective essays with explicit lessons gives the book a structure reminiscent of moral storytelling traditions such as the Panchatantra.

Book overview

Mumuksha is written after following the shadow of thoughts expressed by Kiriti Sengupta in his chapbook "Reflections on Salvation" published by Transcendent Zero Press in the United States of America in July, 2016. It is not an easy work to write small essays on some important issues taken from our life and tradition. Kaushik Acharya has done a commendable job in presenting the essays in simple yet beautiful Sanskrit language. Each and every essay is followed by moral teaching, which reminds us the stories of "Panchatantra" that projects a moral lesson contained in every story. A sincere attempt to include contemporary Indian English writing into Modern Sanskrit Literature.
