My Dad's Books (18-Jul-2019)


I got my reading habits from my dad, though ideologically I am almost opposite to him. The last conversation we had, just before he left us in the year 2012, was ethics & place of Charvaka philosophy in Indian Darshan. He thought charvakas manipulated, corrupted Vedic Literature by adding & deleting original content and I felt they were a group of unorganized rational people who were least interested in attracting others to the group, they utmost gave alternate interpretation, not manipulation. Nevertheless, today I 'repaired' his collection of Sanskrit books. These are 50-100-year-old books, some of them belongs to my grandfather. I could literally see him on the side notes he has written all over the books. Wow, these books. Ain't we the last generation to love these chronically arranged papers? What say?
