Cannabis, Or Ganja, Is Practically As Old As Recorded Indian Civilization, With References To The Plant Being Found In Some Of Indias Earliest Written Texts And Myths. Native Strains Of The Plant Are As Common As Rice Or Millet In Many Indian States, And Can Often Be Found Growing Wild In The Countryside. In Scriptures And In The Opinion Of Enthusiasts, Ganja Is Said To Provide Ananda (Bliss) Or Vijaya (Victory) Over The Cares And Ills Of The World. Cannabis Is Best Known As A Recreational Drug But It Has A Myriad Other Uses As Well.In This Lively, Well-Researched, Humorous, And Occasionally Trippy Account Of Ganja, Karan Madhok Looks At Every Aspect Of The Cannabis Plant: Botanical, Spiritual, Medical, And Recreational. Madhok Hits The Road In Search Of Cannabis Strains Around The Country, Including A Visit To The Himalayan Hamlet That Is Home To The World-Renowned Malana Cream (Which Has Inspired Various Counterculture Movements); Looks For The Mythical Idukki Gold In Kerala; Seeks The Sheelavathi Variety In The Andhra/ Orissa Region; Portrays The Travails Of Addicts, And Details The Shadowy World Of Gangsters And Suppliers; Hangs Out With Devotees Who Openly Consume Bhang And Other Derivatives Of Ganja; And Visits Hospitals And Clinics Which Use The Drug For A Wide Range Of Therapeutics.Besides The Factual And Eye-Opening Research Into Every Aspect Of The Narcotic, The Author Contemplates The Concepts Of Freedom, Creativity, Spirituality, And Paranoia Associated With The Drug, And Examines The Upside And Problems Of Decriminalizing Ganja In India. Ananda, The First Major Study Of Cannabis In India, Is Entertaining, And Enlighteningit Is The Perfect Introduction To An Integral Aspect Of The Country That Has Often Got A Bad Rap And Is Imperfectly Understood.
