If you do not become what you once aspired to become, does it matter? 'The Aspirant' looks for an answer to this perennial question. It is the story of a young man who once wanted to become a Carmelite monk, but ended up becoming a monk of a different order - a civil servant. The disillusionment with the way monastic life was practiced, made him take this new direction. The journey ahead as a bureaucrat in CAG's institution took the author to many places across the globe and caused him to meet several people - ordinary people with extraordinary stories - and those stories add extra layers to this memoir. And all through his life's varied voyages, a part of him remained as a monk. 'The Aspirant' attempts to demystify two venerable institutions - the church and the bureaucracy - with a tinge of irreverence but without an iota of malice.
