Ganga Lahari (Waves of the Ganges). (Original novel)

"Myth is not fiction: it consists of facts that are continually repeated and can be observed over and over again. It is something that happens to man, and men have mythical fates dots" Carl Jung wrote. The protagonist of this novel exists through the annals of Indian myths and history, contending the vagaries of fate, accepting the permanence of time, living like any other man; the fact that he is immortal should be treated by the reader only as incidental. Hindu belief does not recognize death. Nothing is ex nihilo, not even the thoughts or the action of men. Angiras, the protagonist of this book, struggles with this ultimate truth.
