In the last chapter she has drawn a fine picture of Varanasi, the most ancient city of India. This is a book that will help all those who are eager to learn more about India.
Delusion will vanish as the light becomes more and more effulgent, load after load of ignorance will vanish, and then will come a time when all else has disappeared and the sun alone shines.
