Female Quest for Identity in Shashi Deshpande’s Novel: That Long Silencepaperpublications3
Novels of Shashi Deshpande abound in female quest for identity. Her novels are usually narrated by female protagonists
who strive to find out their own selves throughout the novels. Her heroines try to find out their identity through writing
and ultimately reach a resolution in their lives. They are haunted by memories of past and feel a kind of worthlessness,
but towards the end they realize their selves. This is one of the important needs and messages in today‟s world where
women are facing a void, vaccum in their lives. Though they appear to be successful outwardly, but they seem to lack
direction and feel a sense of futility. Shashi Deshpande‟s novels fit into such a scenario and help women realize their
potential in a positive manner. The quest for female identity has its roots in the patriarchal setup, where man is given
every kind of freedom.

This article is mainly focused on the protagonist Savitri of the novel The Dark Room and how she is alienated from herself, from the society and from the world and about her quest for marital identity. Savitri also goes through the crisis of discontent to the quest for happiness. Savitri of the ancient legend is a paragon of virtue and courage who confronts even Death to save her husband is finally victorious. Ironically unlike the legendary Savitri, Narayan’s Savitri chooses to leave home, husband and children once she comes to know of her husband’s infidelity. Contrary to the legend, Savitri is just an ordinary, amiable, housewife. She abandons her gambler and drunkard husband and her family. But her independence proves detrimental to Savitri’s familial peace. Narayan skillfully portrays her every action and in his ironic subtle fashion puts across the artificiality behind it. As a qualitative research, this researcher has taken the text as a ptimary source and interpreted it from existential point of view.

In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer.

Mythological Aspects in the Novels of Arun Joshi
Ms. Anita Sharma
Asst. Professor,Department of Humanities
Truba Institute of Engineering and Information Technology, Bhopal
Email: anita.truba@gmail.com
Abstract:
Arun Joshi is an outstanding Indian English novelist who has outlined human predicament caused by inner crises
of man living in present world. In his novels Joshi has focused not on socio-economic or existing political issues
at all but he has carefully touched deep and very sensitive layers of human being. Joshi’s works reflect strong
influence of Indian spiritual ideology. He is one of those Indian fiction writers who have effectively tried to
reflect eternal metaphysics and ethos by their protagonists.
Key words: Karma Yoga, Detachment, Attachment.
Joshi in his novels focused not only on socio-political issues but he has carefully touched deep and very sensitive
layers of human being. His novels reflect his strong faith on Indian Mythology. “Hinduism, Joshi believes is
highly existentialist-oriented philosophy since it attaches so much value to the right way to live (to exist).”1
The
Vedanta philosophy, the teachings of the Gita and the way of life taught by Mahatma Gandhi had a great
influence on Arun Joshi. “This impact is not casual or coincidental: it seems to form the philosophical and
ethical fabric of some of his major work.”2
Joshi’s first three novels The Foreigner, The Strange Case of Billy
Biswas and The Apprentice deal with three ways of redemption as preached in The Bhagvadgita, the
Karmayoga, the Jnanayoga and the Bhaktiyoga respectively.
The Foreigner is a story of state of mind of the people facing human predicaments. The novel reflects the
principles of Karmyoga described by Lord Krishna to Arjuna in the battle of Kurukshetra in order to resolve his
confusion. The protagonist of the novel Sindi Oberoi cuts his life between attachment and detachment (to do or
not to do).3
He seems to follow principle of Karma throughout the story. He is against the actions performed
merely to attain Bhautik Shukh in life. In his opinion, the life of those who run behind material happiness
throughout their life like Mr. Khemka is meaningless. He falls in love with June, the central female character of
the novel but his strange behaviour confuses her. He denies strong desires of June to get married with him.
In The Foreigner Sindi Oberoi, a rootless hero who seeks detachment from the world at last, comes to realize the
actual meaning of the theory of detachment as depicted in the Gita, “sometimes detachment lies in actually
getting involved.” (Arun Joshi, The Foreigner, p. 188) In The Strange Case of Billy Biswas the protagonist, Billy
Biswas, goes to the hills, in the lap of Nature, like the seers in Indian legends and scriptures, in search of his
spiritual height and to get inner peace. In The Apprentice Ratan Rathor tries his redemption through humility and
penance. In The Last Labyrinth Joshi presents the mysteries of love, God and death. In The City and the River
Joshi reveals his cultural and spiritual ethos. He presents the quest for spiritual commitment and inner soul that
surpass all religions.
The novels of Arun Joshi do not reveal to us much about his knowledge of the Sanskrit learning. In The City
and the River the ancient Indian language, Sanskrit has been referred to as “the forgotten tongue” (The City and
the River, 9) and “the ancient tongue that no one understood.”(The City and the River, 10) In The Last Labyrinth
Som Bhaskar on the Ganga ghat refers nostalgically to the recitation by Pundits from the ancient texts: “A young
Sanskrit scholar recited hymns on the top of his voice. I thought of my father and the little books of the
Upanishads. Another boy equally young corrected him. Did Panini ever live in Benaras?” (The Last Labyrinth,
48) This is perhaps all that he has written about Sanskrit in his novels. But it is a certainly that being born and
educated in early years at Benaras, he might have schooling in it up to the secondary level. Whatever may be the
reality he uses ideas from the Bhagwad Gita, the Upnishads and some other system of Indian philosophy. The
idea in The Foreigner relates to the problem of attachment versus detachment expounded in the Bhagwad Gita.
Sindi Oberoi suffers from a wrong conception of detachment and as such does not want to get involved in action.
But the presentation of detachment as panacea for life’s problem as exemplified by Sindi Oberoi is erroneous.
The dilemma of the factory worker, Muthu, and his exhortion makes Sindi realise his mistakes. It enables to
attain self-knowledge as he realizes:
Detachment at that time had meant inaction. Now I had begun to see the fallacy in it. Detachment consisted of
right action and not escape from it. The Gods had set a heavy price to teach me just that. (The Foreigner,239)

In The Strange Case of Billy Biswas Arun Joshi has perhaps deliberately created a work of fiction on the concept
of Prakriti and Purusha on the Sankhya system of Indian Phiosophy. R. S. Pathak has explained the narrative of
Bilasia and Billy on the Sankhya concept of the fusion of Prakriti and Purusha:
As Billy’s example testifies, if one is able to establish a rapport with the primitive forces in the world of nature,
one can get rid of all problems of life. Bilasia, it is held, symbolises “the primitive culture,” the untapped
subterranean resources of psychic energy. It would be better to regard her as the matter (Prakriti), which
according to the Sankhya system of Indian Philosophy, is “one” and eternal, not an illusionary appearance but
something real. Billy might be taken to represent the soul (Purusha), which by its mere presence excites Matter
and illumines the process of evolution of the universe. Bilasia, we are reminded, is “the embodiment of the
primal and invulnerable force that had ruled these Maikala hills; perhaps this earth, since time began.” Her
“enormous eyes,” we are told, “poured out a sexuality that was nearly as primeval as the forest that surrounded
them.” In the Sankhya philosophy the material universe is traced to a First Cause.4
In The Apprentice the way which Ratan chooses for the purification of his soul meets the vision of Bhakti in The
Bhagvadgita: Ratan undergoes expiation and believes that purification is to be obtained not by any ritual, or
dogma but by making amends. The polishing of shoes of the devotees by him cleanses the filth enveloping his
soul. His earlier atheistic attitude towards is gone and Ratan comes to believe that only God can help him. His
sitting in front of a temple signifies his devotion (Bhakti) in which the devotee can appease his God just by
praying to him meekly.
Arun Joshi has imbibed knowledge of psychology and philosophy of both East and West. His narrative technique
has been influenced by the psychology of the stream of consciousness which we find in several of his novels. He
mentions Freud in connection with Leila Sabnis in The Last Labyrinth. She has behind her seat philosophers of
America and Europe and “Freud as well bearded and saintly, indefatigable, groping in the night of man’s mind,
strewn with piss, excreta, struggling to put man together, the pervert and the insane but also those who, whole
otherwise, walk the beaches at night and cry for the spirit.” (The Last Labyrinth, 77) This is a kind of summary
of the Freudian psychology. Joshi also refers to certain other European philosophers such as Pascal, on whom
Som Bhaskar did a paper at Harvard. A quotation from him has been given:
Let us weigh the gain and loss in wagering that God is, let us estimate these two chances. If you gain,
you gain all, if you lose, you lose nothing. (The Last Labyrinth, 11)
Joshi believes in the Freudian motive behind literary creation, which grows out of fantasy and reality. On many
occasions in The Last Labyrinth, there are specific references to Krishna, Buddha, Tukaram and even
Yajnavalkya whom he refers to in an Upnishadic quotation:
When the sun is set and the Moon is also set, and the fire has sunk down and the voice is silent, what,
then Yajnavalkya, is the light of man? (The Last Labyrinth, 108)
Som Bhaskar guesses what Yajnavalkya could have answered. Joshi’s Hindu psyche makes him refer to
Bhaskar’s performing the last rites of his father at Hardwar. There are also references to several deities of the
Hindu pantheon. Bhaskar recalls the statue of the Trimurti at Elephanta caves:
Heavy lipped Brahma, Rudra with snakes and a third eye; Vishnu almost effeminate. (The Last
Labyrinth, 23)
Som Bhaskar also thinks of the dormant Kundalini power:
I feel rage whipping at the end of my spine, and shooting up with the skull, to some dark hollows where
the serpent slept, just waiting to be stirred. (The Last Labyrinth, 20)
We can find so many references to the Tantrik cult in The Last Labyrinth. Of all Joshi’s novels The Last
Labyrinth has perhaps the greatest number of reverberation from the different philosophical systems of East and
West dealing mostly with the labyrinthine ways of life and death.
Arun Joshi’s last novel the City and the River also centres around the basic principles of Hindu philosophy
which teaches an affirmative attitude to life. The novel presents before us a city which is in the jaws of
destruction due to its people who never seek the righteous way of living. Throughout the novel there is a conflict
in the city folk to choose between the “allegiance to God” and “the allegiance to Man” or in simple words
between religion and politics. The doctrine of Karma asserts that man’s final growth depends on him. His future
is no pre-determined. He is a responsible agent who by the “integration of Karma, jnana and Bhakti” (Rao: 150)
reaches his salvation.

Joshi has used various myths, legends and archetypes to suggest the value of an authentic life, faith and right
action-the barest necessity of modern man. The political scenario of the city is used as backdrop of the novel
which helps the novelist in presenting a contemporary problem with the metaphysical overview of creation and
disintegration, sristi and pralaya dealt in Indian myths. Whenever human beings degenerate, anarchy and
meaninglessness take them in their grip leading them nowhere. If they do not mend their ways the process of
sristi and pralaya after a period of time is to go on unless the whole world is purified. The canvas of The City
and The River is very vast and encompasses within its range time, God, Man and Nature. Thus we find that Arun
Joshi makes a use of Vedanta, the philosophy f Karma, and Lord Krishna’s concept of “detachment” and
“involvement” to bring out the inner recesses of his protagonists.
