Pariksha guru is a novel in Hindi. It was written by Delhi-native Lala Srinivas Das[1] and was published in 1882. It was reprinted in 1974 with an introduction by Ramdaras Mishra. This novel is not as well known because Bengali novels of those times were love sagas wrapped in fantasies.It was a moralising novel. AboutPariksha Guru was the first modern Hindi novel. It cautioned young men of well-to-do families against the dangerous influence of bad company and consequent loose morals. Pariksha Guru reflects the inner and outer world of the newly emerging Middle class.The characters are caught in the difficulty of adapting to colonial society while preserving their cultural identity.Although it was apparently written purely for the 'pleasure of reading'. The world of colonial modernity seems both frightening and irresistible. The novel tries to teach the reader the 'right way' of living and expects all sensible men to be worldly wise and practical, to remain rooted in the values of their own tradition and culture, and to live with dignity and honor. The characters attempt to bridge two different worlds through their actions; they take to new agricultural technology, modernize trading practices, change the use of Indian languages making them capable of adopting both Western sciences and Indian wisdom. The young are urged to cultivate the healthy habit of reading newspapers. All this must be achieved without sacrificing traditional values.
