About The Author

Born in the year 1902, G.K. Pradhan became Vanijya Visharad from Gujarat Vidyapith. During his Vidyapith days, he had the opportunity of getting into close touch with leaders and intellectuals in India.

He joined state service in Madhya Pradesh. He then gave up service and returned to Ahmedabad, to work as editor of an English magazine. Then he turned to business and experienced many vicissitudes in life.

With his varied experience, he met his Guru and started on the spiritual path, whole-heartedly. The Master opened up a new page in his life book. Being an intellectual, and not a blind follower, many a problem that arose and questions that confronted him, were solved. This book narrates his experiences, the problems he faced and the solutions he found. He has interwoven the same beautifully in the life of Madhav. He passed away in 1963 after he had completed and published the book.

To all those intellectuals who wish to pursue the spiritual path, this book will be of great help. Many problems and questions that confront seekers of truth are answered.

PREFACE

Towards the Silver Crests of the Himalayas is being presented to the public in an autobiographical form.

The radiance, the grandeur, and the beauty of the Himalayas is known to the whole world. The Silver Crests form that part of the Himalayas which slopes towards Tibet, the so-called roof of the world. It is in this part that many Spiritual Seekers and Seers have taken their abodes in its snow-covered caves.

The Supreme, the Unknown, the Ultimate Truth is their objective. To offer any opinion on their work and worth, is not the aim of this book. These spiritually perfect personages with their immense and uncanny spiritual powers are always trying to help mankind as a whole, to attain the highest levels of evolution, if not complete transformation. This is the faith of all Spiritual Seekers. The title is meant to symbolise this faith.

The names in the book are imaginary and have nothing to do with persons living or dead. I have only attempted to illustrate my personal experiences while in the presence of my Spiritual Guide and Guru, as well as in company of other Seekers. The situations have been selected either to explain or state some everlasting truths, my own experiences and convictions.

INTRODUCTION

THIS book by Shri G.K. Pradhan is both a document of personal experience and a parable. It begins with a dream, apparently simple and normal. Towards the end, however, the contents of the whole dream become a reality.

This raises several problems for the students of psychology and para-psychology. There is little light available from Freud and Adler. Dr. Jung's view of such a dream might be useful to some extent. In terms of his Depth Psychology, the Dream in this book is the Projected Ideal which always has a germ for self- actualisation. Dr. Freud could have interpreted it as the distorted shape of some sex-inspired longing!

Dr. Jung was himself an advanced spiritual seeker. He often used the word "Shadow" in the sense of the past Karmic influence. He had himself confessed it to me, in August 1951, at his home in Zurich (Switzerland), that the Karma theory of the ancient Indian thinkers is "the only possible rational approach to the several Imponderables" involved in any effort towards understanding the Human Personality.
