Existentialism in Raja Rao's Novels.

      Аннотация: It is a fact that life on earth is beset with a variety of problems. It is never smooth. Every individual is encumbered and afflicted with personal cares and worries. Similarly, man has achieved phenomenal success in the scientific and technological spheres and has also sufficiently enriched his knowledge in almost all the fields of life. He has explored many things but being an explorer of all knowledge remains unexplored. The book brings an analytical study of the two popular novels of Raja Rao,The Serpent and the Rope and The Chessmaster and His Moves . It brings out Raja Rao’s art of writing about people and their ultimate aim in life. Each of the novels represents a unique spiritual experience to the readers where an individual’s identification gets responded and makes one feel deeply concerned about life. In this book, the protagonists of Raja Rao realize the significance of life through their studies of the major principles like the Karma, the Jnana, and the Bhakti Yoga of the Bhagvad Gita philosophy. The novels reveal the original identity of an individual through the basic principles and the ways of the Hindu and the Buddhist teachings.
