Pankaj Kumar

The son of a professor, Pankaj Kumar loved reading books and magazines as a youngster. He developed an interest in science at an early age but later when it did not provide answers to questions which arose in his mind, he turned to literature, philosophy, psychology and spirituality. A book on Buddhism and the writings of saint-philosopher Swami Sivananda were major influences in his life. He also had the good fortune to meet some saints and thinkers.

He works as a copy editor and lives with his wife, son and mother in New Delhi. He meditates, writes in a journal and tries to follow essential spiritual guidelines.
