An unprecedented Raimon Panikkar for many, always an inexhaustible creator of thought even in intimacy. The Diaries are a long-awaited work. The title chosen, The Drop of the Water, resumes an expression dear to the author, symbolic of a unity that calls us all. Panikkar’s intimate writing takes us through the period of his training in Spain to his renewed formation in India, and again from his several trips in Europe and India, until his years of teaching in the United States. Panikkar entrusts to his Diaries his sense of self-esteem, his concerns and discoveries, with the same simplicity of spirit that he had as a young man. He also tell us dramatic moments, expressed in his direct and personal style that has always characterized his writing.
