THE
HIMALAYAN DESERT
By Nina Rao
The Himalayan Desert extends over Mustang in Nepal
and includes the Indian districts of Lahaul, Ladakh, Spiti
and Kinnaur. Barren, dusty and dry, covered in snow and
sand, this region, where temperatures dip below -500 C,
is one of the harshest in the world. Braving these adversities
is its people-a mixture of Indian, Tibetan, Chinese, Islamic
and Buddhist cultures- who preserve and enrich an ancient
culture. The Himalayan Desert: a sensitive study of the
physical, cultural and social life through eloquent prose
and breathtaking pictures. |

INDIA
(Revised
)
By Antra Dev Sen
India,
the land of magic and mystery, lavished by nature’s splendour,
has remained, to most, the country’s of one’s dreams.
It is also a country of contrasts—modern, innovative and
rapidly changing on one side, and traditional, conservative
and culture-conscious on the other. There is truth in
both these views of India: a symbiosis of tradition and
modernity. The true charm of the country runs beyond the
wonder of ancient traditions, the beauty of blue seas,
golden sunshine, or silvered mountains and lush green
grass. It lies in the careful balancing of its heritage
with the everchanging reality of the present. Out of the
interplay of conflicting cultures and beliefs, India,
incredibly resilient, has etched out an identity for herself
that is both unique and engaging. |
