I am a Hindu, brought up mostly in India.
I used to sleep with a little Ganesha under my pillow as a child; he was my favourite deity.
Nepal is a beautiful country with a lot of holy places. I also like the country because it's close to the Himalayas. According to Hindu mythology, that's the abode of Lord Shiva.
'Friend Monkey' is really my favorite of all my books because the Hindu myth on which it is based is my favorite - the myth of the Monkey Lord who loved so much that he created chaos wherever he went.
I am a Hindu, and I have pride in that.
I'm a Hindu and a Nepali by birth.
I am a Venkateswara Swami devotee.
All the credit goes to Jesus Christ, Mother Mary, Shani Bhagwan and Ganpati. These are the four pillars of my destiny.
I'm interested in mythology generally, but India has no special place in my heart - although Hindu gods seem a lot more fun.
The country will never vote in favour of those who do not acknowledge Lord Ram and Lord Krishna.
