Is genuine change possible for those who have killed and borne the brunt of killings?
The Ranvir Sena—CPI (ML) conflict in Bihar, insurgency in the Northeast, and terror-prone villages in Kashmir. Pulling off peace in such conflict zones, between deadly warring factions known for killing one another and those caught in the crossfire as well, can seem tumultuous. Bringing the killers back to society seems downright impossible.
The Man Who Froze Fire chronicles true stories of conflict transformation facilitated from ground zero by Sanjay Kumar, under the guidance of Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar.
Suraj Duseja brings to you the exciting and intriguing backstage action of many such paradigm shifts in contemporary times. The book brings to the fore the crucial works that happened from 2000-2017 in bringing together and transforming conflicted communities whose lives and regions were destroyed by structural violence ranging from militancy, terrorism, insurgency to Maoism.
