For
Deepika my wife…
This book is a result of your sacrificing nature. The tremendous support you
have provided me over the years has enabled me to discover the author in
myself. This book is dedicated to your selfless nature. Your hidden hand is
visible in every word of this book and I would like to accept that this book is
as much mine as yours. Writing this book without your support would have
been tough. You have smoothened my path by managing everything single-
handedly during my long absence from home. Not to speak of your
soothing presence which motivates me to work longer and harder.
Thanks for those endless cups of fresh ginger and tulsi herbal infusion
which have kept me active and for your innovative zero stress vegan
cooking which increased my effectiveness and efficiency. Thanks for not
watching television. Thanks for not going to watch movies. Just because
you couldn’t do these without me and I couldn’t accompany you, as I was
busy travelling. Thanks for not buying milk and willingly following my vegan
diet. Words are insufficient to communicate my gratitude for packing my
bags and thoughtfully including everything I needed in the remotest
corners of this planet. Thanks for paying the bills during my absence from
home. Thanks a ton, chotu, for being my pillar of strength during our initial
turbulent days at Bengaluru.

Preface
This book is a result of fifteen years of painstaking work and repeated
journeys to some of the most interior and inaccessible areas in India. We
undertook these pilgrimages, as we wanted to discover hidden pockets of
tranquility, where one could relax to the tune of nature. We were guided
to all destinations featured in this book by hidden meaningful coincidences,
which enabled us to meet the right person at the right time. I would like to
recount my personal experience which has transformed my life.
On January 1st'1995, I had one of the most traumatic experiences of my 28
years of existence on planet earth. I was returning home after a New Year's
party at Jayanagar in Bengaluru, when I had a head-on collision with a
truck. I was wearing a helmet, yet had a serious head injury, which resulted
in organic damage to the right fronto-parietal lobe of my brain. This
haemoharrage prevented blood flow to my right brain resulting in complete
paralysis of the left side of my body. Doctors at Manipal Hospital were
brave enough to declare me a vegetable for life, as blood flow to my right
brain had been obstructed for eight hours and I went into coma. The
subsequent surgical interventions meant total dependency on powerful
anti-epileptic drugs for the rest of my life!
After about a week of drifting in and out of coma, I regained consciousness.
However, the left side of my body continued to be dead weights. Slowly but
surely, I recovered from paralysis by combining Zen meditation with NLP
(Neuro Linguistic Programming). I was regularly practicing meditation and
creative visualisation before my accident. I knew that mind power could
cure any disease including amnesia, epilepsy and paralysis. By practicing
ZeNLP, I regained back my health in a short span of three months. I decided
that as I had been given a new life, I would dedicate it to the cause of
environment protection. I made a list of goals and put them in writing.
On the first anniversary of my accident, I decided to spend the New Year's
Eve at a forest resort, which is an eight-hour drive from Bengaluru. The
Bilagiri Rangan Hills or B.R. Hills is a reserved forest, which is approximately
300 km. south of Bengaluru. On 30th December'1995, I took the KSRTC
(Karnataka State Road Transport Corporation) bus to B.R. Hills and arrived
6
there at around 8 p.m. Early morning, I decided to take a trek around my
guest-house, when I found a group of tourists proceeding into the forests
for sightseeing. One of the passengers of the jeep happened to be my
student and he asked me to join them in their safari.
Unknown forces were propelling me into an adventure,
