The Phantom Rickshaw and Other Eerie Tales is a marvellous companion for a train journey or a lazy weekend afternoon, just as it was 125 years ago when it was first published.

The mind is constantly accumulating, changing viewpoints, ideologies, religions. It is not very trustworthy, it cannot be relied upon. Today it may be a communist and tomorrow may turn against communism; today it may be atheist, tomorrow it may become a theist. Mind is just hot air, as polluted as Poona.
