Since India is a country of extremes and opposites, it is no surprise that while western India is composed of a desert, north east India is a lush, tropical paradise. The dry TharDesert is one of the most popular tourist destinations in India thanks to its myriad attractions. From the glorious forts that are now heritage resorts and hotels, to the pageantry of a land that sparkles with the brightness of its colours against the sere desert, Rajasthan has long captured the imagination of most visitors. And then there is the captivating brilliance of Gujarat with its folk’s arts and traditions. It is also home to some truly spectacular landscape: the Rann of Kutch. While the western part of India displays its vibrancy of culture via colour, the north eastern states of India rival each other in verdant greenery. Dominated by tribes, the north east is virtual treasure chest, from the fables that link it to the most revered epics of Hinduism. The Ramayana and Mahabharata to the unique societal practices such as matrilineal society in Meghalaya, there is much to explore and discover.

The Oscar-winning role played by theDustin Hoffman in the 1988 film, about an Austin savant with astounding arithmetical skills is indeed based on Kim Peek(among others), although Kim is not aortic but developmentally disabled. Most savants possess remarkable expertise in up to three subjects. Kim is a mega –savant, because he is expert in at least 15 different subjects.No one in the world is thought to possess a brain as extraordinary as Kim Peek’s.NASA is hoping to use modern advances in brain imaging and data fusion techniques to shed light on how Kim’s brain ticks.

I ask Kim what he feels about it. “It’s the best way of all,” he replies enigmatically. Why does he think he knows so much? “I have great love for everybody I see.” He answers. It is hard to hold a conversation with Kim. His mind flits from one subject to the next with bewildering rapidity-with Fran always trying to steer Kim back on course.I tell them I grew up near a town called Cirencester. “It was a Roman Camp called Corin”, says Kim “Corinium,” I corrected him. Later I check and find that he is right: the Romans based the name corinium to the Celtic word Corin.

Stress is the twentieth century illness. The pressures on all of us are very great because speed and competition have become part of everyday life.

The rat race affects everybody in society from toddlers to senior citizens. There is always something that worries us.

But before saying anything further about his progress, it would be useful to go back to an earlier chapter in his history. After war service in 1914-18, he came to be recommended for a gatekeeper’s post at Engladia’s. He liked the job very much. He was given a khaki uniform, a resplendent band across his shoulder and a short stick. He gripped the stick and sat down on a stool at the entrance to the office. And when his chief’s car pulled up at the gate he stood at attention and gave a military salute.  The office consisted of a staff numbering over a hundred, and as they trooped in and out every day he kept an eye on them. At the end of the day he awaited footsteps of the General Manager coming down the stairs and rose stiffly and stood at attention, and after he left, the hundreds of staff poured out. The doors were shut; Singh carried his stool in, placed it under the staircase and placed his stick across it. Then he came out and main door was locked and sealed. In this way he had his stick twenty-five years of service, and then he begged to be pensioned off.
