The book is concerned with the transition of the Aryan Saraswat community as a whole through millenniums of religious philosophies, search of identity of the brahmins of Kashmir, their gotra orientation, and their honorifics and Bhatta and Pandit and other select surnames. It aims to discuss the Aryan roots and genesis of specific names and surnames of the community in order to keep them fresh in history and save them from oblivion. It covers topics like Aryans’ immigration into Kashmir, mention of the region in Nilamat Purana, advent of Islam in Kashmir, Mughal, Afghan and Sikh rule in the region and the Dogra rule. The later chapters focus on the religious aspects of brahmins of Kashmir and their worship and rituals relating to goddesses Bhadrakali, Sharda, and others as well as the Kul Devis. It takes up aberrations in eras and erroneous dating in Kalhana’s Rajatarangini.
