About the author
Gian Kumar is the author of Spiritual Power, a two-volume work published by Hay House India that sets out an overview of spirituality and its relationship to everyday life. The first volume, Being & Becoming, offers what the publisher describes as a comprehensive overview of spiritual ideas aimed at general readers rather than specialists. The second, subtitled The Mask of the Absolute, continues the inquiry, drawing on the idea, attributed in the book to Plutarch, that inner change shapes outer reality. Kumar writes in a reflective, essayistic style intended for readers new to spiritual literature rather than those seeking a specific tradition or lineage. Both volumes are compact and pitched as introductory reading rather than in-depth philosophical or scholarly treatment. Published in 2023, they are aimed at an Indian and English-language readership interested in accessible writing on spirituality's practical relevance.
