That was the era of fishing in Bengal. There is chaos all around. A buffalo herdsman and his head guru indulge in horrific lawlessness as the epitome of decadent Tibetan Buddhism. Wailing-moaning-famine across Bengal. It was during this period of transition that an unprecedented mass awakening took place in the heart of Bengal. The country was transformed by the combined revolt of the masses, Saiva and Sahajiya Buddhist saints. A new upheaval took place, light shone in the darkness. For the first time in history, Bapyat-putra, the first king of the Pala dynasty, was elected to the throne by the people. But how did this awakening happen? 'Patmanjari' is not a history, but a vast novel written in the context of history, whose pages are full of thrills, breathless struggles, violence, nasty conspiracies, heroism and above all love and greatness.
