Rupdarshi Sangraha 2 by Gour Kishor Ghosh [Hardcover]

He set out to perceive the essence of life - not just through an external lens, but from the very core. He explored every form of vision and every variety of perspective. In his own words: "I’ve wandered with vigilant eyes, day and night. What I’ve seen, what I’ve liked, I’ve shared…" As he sought to witness the nature of life, he became a visionary. At times, he was a sketch artist, at other times a reporter, sometimes a critic, and occasionally a prophetic thinker with a view of the past, present, and future. 

He entered the realm of humour writing, armed with a sketchbook. His lines were simple, yet they were extraordinary works of art. The impulse to see from within was woven into the very fabric of his sketches. Eventually, his role transformed from that of a sketch artist to that of a commentator. He understood everyday events, carefully selecting what to report, and then giving them life through his language. 

In his sketches or sketch-inspired writings, he was a master of irony and satire. In his journalistic work, he was a perceptive, confident, and fearless individual filled with belief and awareness. He considered it his duty to inform everyone of the eternal and auspicious through his writing. Here, his role was not just as an observer, but as a presenter.

Under the pen name Rupdorshi (The Visionary), Gourkishore Ghosh gave readers "the multifaceted pictures of life," which are collected in two volumes, showcasing his deeply insightful and often satirical works. This volume includes Rupdorshi’s journalistic pieces, outspoken thoughts, confrontations, critiques, and extensive reflections on various subjects.
