Chennai: Ravi Valluri, the Principal Chief Commercial Manager of Southern Railway, has authored many books.
They include ‘The Matter of the Mind’, ‘Make the Mind Mt. Kailasa’, ‘The Infinite Mind’- co-authored with Ankush Garg, ‘NaMo 303 Words to Victory’, ‘Indian Stories: Images & Thoughts’, ‘Heartbreak at Coffee Shop An Array of Tales’, ‘Divine Whispers 365 Quotes of HH Sri Sri Ravi Shankar’ and ‘Magic of the Mind’.
Talking about his latest book ‘A Tale of Parallels’, he says, “the stories are spins on popular characters from the epic Mahabharata, Zen and other mythological tales, which I find extremely fascinating. The stories offer a peep into the everyday lives of people, some ordinary, those of priestly class and places of worship, and some extraordinary achievers who in their minds have ingenious ideas to reach frontiers beyond planet earth. A few tales were a gut reaction to the tales of tragedy and valour as humanity confronts this microorganism once again.”
