Abstract
Henry David Thoreau accepted himself a Yogi and the real follower of the Puranas and the Gita. After getting higher education from the Harvard University, he did not plan any career for himself. His family was not well-off these days and much was expected from him. These days the merchants of Concord were planning new factories, transport system and new staff-rooms for the economic development of the town. Unfortunately, he had no liking for all these plans as he decided to lead a contended life in the lap of nature
