Environmentalist, Activist and Author T. Patanjali Sastri is back with a new anthology of original short stories with 'Samantaralu.' Connecting these stories is the intrigue that is the human psyche—there are only experiences, and the memory of those experiences that form the essence of how we go through life. It is the wisdom acquired: to gain, to lose, to quarrel, to remember, to feel a sense of impending death, that culminate into our thoughts and intelligence. There's nothing to understand about life, the author argues; it is only an understanding of oneself that is needed.
