The political developments and the militancy have forced them out of their hearths and homes. They are scattered all over the country and abroad. Obviously therefore their existence as a community with a distinct identity is in danger. The present book is intended to illustrate the unique features of this community draw a portrait of their characteristics and give an insight into their intrinsic qualities. It gives a detailed account of their way of life their rituals and festivals and all that goes into making of this enlightened community. It also shows the changes it has undergone in various ways and the manner it has adapted to the changed circumstances while remaining firm with their roots and moorings. The book is intended to serve the twin purpose of giving a picture of the community to outsiders and rekindling a sense of pride among the Kashmiri Pandits about the richness of their culture tradition philosophy and their socio religious character. 184 pp.
