About the Author
Former journalist, Ramesh Sharma, by exposing the King’s conspiracy, had been successful singlehandedly in correcting the course of Nepal’s prolonged struggle for democracy in 1990. He also led the trade union movement in government-owned newspaper organization where he worked as an editor for almost one and a half decades. Amidst chaos and terror in the wake of then King’s usurpation of power, Jayatu Sanskritam Mahasabha, under his leadership, had been the first political organization in February, 2004, to publicly call for the replacement of monarchy with Republican Democracy in the kingdom. Profoundly influenced by great Eastern philosophers, Sharma has always remained an impassioned advocate of the Upanishadic doctrine, often described as ‘Universality of Spirit’. His iconoclastic approach to religion and spirituality tends to border on an open rebellion that dares defy established conventions of major belief systems. A long time social worker, Sharma, has been living in the United States since May, 2004, along with his family. Also by Ramesh Sharma: America Arise And Awake, America Thy Simmering Agony, America Face Down Evil, America Quo Vadis, The Empire Of Truth, Silent Caveat Of Time, and Distance Between Freedom And Auschwitz.
