Aghora-III

Description

In this, the third and final volume of the Aghora trilogy, the Aghori Vimalananda uses the backdrop of the Bombay racetrack as a potent  metaphor for the ultimate game of life, where destinies and fortunes are forged or lost on the momentary edge of the finishing line.

Weaving all the characters—favourites and outsiders, jockeys and trainers, owners and ‘rail-birds’—into the grassroots tapestry of the field of karma, Vimalananda masterfully entwines the flamboyant external reality of the racecourse with the subtle internal reality of creative  spirituality.

Hidden within the form of every sliding moment which culminates in ‘chance’ are the infinite tracks of destiny and the profound and  underlying philosophical truths they reveal.
