Zeroing in on Spiritual Odyssey: An Exploration of Raja Rao's Select Short Stories

Manoram Sen

Abstract :

Raja Rao’s creative journey as a writer is permeated with metaphysical and spiritual quests which are filtered through his novels and short stories. His literary outputs have the quaint motif of exploration of the self from the drab and illusory mundanity--- the most cherished goal of life according to Indian philosophy. We can corroborate this fact for the esoteric intellectual thoughts of advaitic Vedanta and Indian philosophy run parallel with the veneer of ancient Indian mythology and legend in his works. In this research paper I shall try to elucidate Raja Rao’s few selected short stories as an odyssey of spiritual and metaphysical exploration.
