The Mahakumbh at Prayagraj may be drawing thousands to take a dip at the Triveni Sangam, but nearer home a book, Reflections of Ram Sewak - A Sangam of The Gita and Shri Ramcharitmanas, by Chandigarh-based senior IAS officer Anirudh Tewari, offers a dive into a confluence of eternal wisdom that holds a universal appeal.

The book, comprising 54 musings in English interspersed with shlokas (verses in Sanskrit) and chaupais (in Awadhi), draws on the author's 34-year experience in public service and his spiritual journey that began at the tender age of six. Posthumously dedicated to his father, Ram Sewak Tewari, an engineer with a spiritual bent, the writer reveals how our scriptures transcend time to help us gracefully navigate the ups and downs of life.
