Germs of words for the seeker Of the millions of words which Dr. Radhakrishnan wrote in his highly illustrious and prolific career as philosopher, teacher, statesman and author, there are few that speak about himself. His concern was man in cosmos, rarely he himself. In this significant book Dr. Radhakrishnan comes nearest to talking about himself. And yet, as was his wont, instead of narrating the events of his life, he gives us a peep into his soul – a peep into his thoughts and self – development – and makes us conscious of our own destiny. In the introduction to the book, B. K. Ahluwalia gives a brilliant account of Dr. Radhakrishnan’s philosophy and reveals some little known facets of the great philosopher’s personality.

Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan, the first vice-president and second president of Independent India, was also one of its foremost thinkers and visionaries. He was also known widely as a teacher, which is why his birth anniversary is celebrated every year as Teachers' Day. He believed that teachers must be accorded the highest honour, since their role in nation-building is very crucial. He has written several books, of which Bhagvadgita is the best-loved.
