Author Profile
There is not much to say, and for this reason, in my initial works/editions I avoided saying much about myself. For, I believed that my works should be my representative, not my worldly credentials. However, readers in today's environment aren't quite trained to think in those terms, and therefore, in times to come I had to change my approach and provide as much information as may be useful for potential readers to evaluate if my works were worthy of reading or not. It seemed necessary at some point because I did not resort to publicity by other means. Generally an author's works become known through media reviews which create an awareness and curiosity among prospective readers. For years I have avoided that because my works did not mince words in criticizing media as well, and also those who may be in high places and respected by many. I believed that if my works have substance in them, they will themselves attract readers and the message will pass from one to the other by word of mouth. However, I did do some sampling as people have to become aware of their existence, at least. Hindu Voice, the publisher of my first work 'Arise Arjun Awaken my Hindu Nation' did place some ads free of cost to help the Cause. Nevertheless, curiosity does remain among the readers to know something about the writer. Therefore, a few details of my background are presented here organized in chronological manner.
I was born of Hindu Bengali parents in Bankura, also the birthplace of Shri Jay Dayaal Goenka, the illustrious founder of Gita Press, Gorakhpur. I share the same heritage as Shri RaamKrishn ParamHans Dev, Swami Vivekananda, Ravindr Naath Thaakur, balidaani KhudiRaam Bose, Netaji Subhash Chandr Bose, and numerous others. I was born in a family which has had higher education for generations and religious inclinations as well. My father was a gold medalist engineer, paternal/maternal grandfather physician/surgeon, great-grandfather author and traveler, great-great-grandfather a yogi in his later life. I passed my High School at a relatively early age with distinctions and merit scholarship, Graduation with a university rank, got professionally qualified as Chartered Accountant, Company Secretary, and in Computer System Analysis. I worked with multinational corporations, overseas government corporations, smaller business houses, etc in senior managerial capacities. Way back in 1986 I was chosen for enlisting in Who's Who in the World by Marquis based in Chicago for almost a century. Eight years ago (May 2000) I took voluntary retirement from employment and by August 2002 became a fulltime researcher, analyst, interpreter, author and publisher of the Truth as I saw it.
