Dr Karan Singh’s book on the pristine beauty and spiritual ambience of the Kashmir valley was released here today. Titled ‘The Mountain of Shiva’, the book is the only work of fiction among Dr Singh’s 30-odd books published so far.

Describing it as a spiritual novel, the veteran Rajya Sabha member told a gathering at the book release function that the theme was based on the broad Vedanta philosophy. Brought out by Palimpsest Publishers, the book was released by MP Pavan K Varma, who said the fiction was really impressive. He suggested Dr Singh should write many more such books.

Dr Singh, however, ruled out another venture on this line. “Any fictional work about Kashmir written now has to revolve around militancy, violence and destruction. That is not my cup of tea,” the veteran leader said.
