Abstract

Since time immemorial, healers like Charak, Hippocrates, Nagarjuna, Kasyapa Matanga and Avicenna and so on have emphasised the importance of mental wellbeing. It is not coincidental that just as the choices of men impact their mind and body, so does the state of the mind and body influence their choices. This article attempts to analyse the style chosen by Mughal Emperor Humayun. It studies the balance of the mystic and the materialistic in those choices. Facts have been employed to detect a ‘shift’ in the balance and to analyse the eventual equilibrium that kept the core values of humanism intact in this emperor.
