6 Times Thinner: The Call of Pashmina

Born in Jammu & Kashmir, Babar leaves his town for good with a promise of never coming back to the troubled land which is engulfed with terrorism and no opportunities for young people. In this book, he takes us on his life's journey from the corporate world to the world which is wild. He asks questions and tries to find answers and keeps responding to the problems around him which turn into a sequence of events that force him to come back. This is Babar’s journey to discover his true calling to become a Pashmina artist, activist and a Pashmina goat shepherd (the only one in the world) to save this magnificent specie in Himalayas and the Pashmina eco-system that preserves the ancient culture, religion and heritage of Himalayas. A journey to shed excess baggage (both internal and external) and become 6 times thinner, to bring in social positive change. Along the way he explains the Wisdom of Shepherds which he gets from this tribe which are lessons for businesses, stat-ups, students, home-makers, executives, consultants, policy makers, politicians and more. A simple yet inspiring journey, to save Authentic Pashmina, which is rare to see in these hyper times.
