Ravi had grown up under the high ceilings of his grandfather’s study, where trunks of yellowing paperbacks leaned like tired sailors and the air smelled of cloves and ink. Among those faded spines, one name kept returning in whispered references: K. S. Narayanacharya. Grandfather spoke of him with gentle reverence — a scholar who bridged old epics and modern thought, whose essays were like lanterns guiding younger readers through dense forests of philosophy.
