The Clear Face of Isha

The pages of this book are hinged on three drivers:
The first is that of the novel that tells of Isha, a well-known and beloved spiritual master with a strong sense of humor and irony, who lives in the southern regions of the Himalayas. Due to the work of spreading his personal vision of life, completely detached from the Hindu religion doctrine, he was arrested and imprisoned by the authorities under the pressure of the priestly caste. His uncle Satyabrata and the young pupil Samirluca, in a daring way, will manage to get him out of prison. The three will then flee on horseback from the Indian region.
The second driver is that relating to the ethical and philosophical contents of Isha's doctrine, which, during the course of the story, are taught to the pupil Samirluca. The intention is to lead the reader to compare his own vision of existence with Isha's faith, but also with the problems of inclusion and acceptance of the "stranger" that we still live today in our society, which are closely linked, according to the teachings of Isha, to the evolutionary process of the human race.
The third key is a detail relating to the protagonists, which is deliberately revealed only at the end of the novel. The reader will be able to reconsider the story from a completely different perspective, noting how the vicissitudes and certain specific situations narrated can be interpreted through a different cultural baggage, which had not been considered until then. This will result in unexpected and decidedly unorthodox character profiles of the characters.
