Book Description
In a futuristic world of 2030, a pathologist in her early thirties, is struggling hard to find a purpose in her life. She has a hard choice to make between happiness and wisdom. An independent thinker and whistleblower, who is professionally a medical doctor, is making a hard fight against a pharmaceutical giant. He is in dire need of help from the pathologist. But she is again in conflict, whether to help the independent thinker or not. A neurosurgeon abdicated everything to live an ascetic life in a remote village. But does he have any ulterior motive? A motivational speaker is motivating the entire world, but how much he could motive himself? As the whistleblower intensifies his fight, the line of demarcation between his supporters and opposes is getting murky. He also have to face some past chapters of his life, which he always wanted to forget. In this gripping and enthralling new novel, author has sensitively and extensively explored the dimensions of happiness and wisdom, through a story embossed with elements of love, ambition, friendship, betrayal, abdication and existentialism.

Book Description
Though "The Heart Sutra" is an ancient Buddhist scripture, scholars are now discovering how it offers insight into the nature of an ultimate reality perceived through intuitive wisdom. Fascinatingly, quantum physicists are increasingly discovering interesting parallels between science and the basic insights of "The Heart Sutra." In this important offering, Mu Soeng shows how the intellectual and the intuitive can begin to meet. In offering a commentary on this important piece of the world's great religious literature, "The Heart of the Universe" establishes a broad context to encounter "The Heart Sutra" on many levels -- historical, spiritual, and empirical -- each serving to interdependently illuminate the other.

Book Description
This book is the first systematic study of the genealogy, discursive structures, and political implications of the concept of ‘Greater India’, implying a Hindu colonization of Southeast Asia, and used by extension to argue for a past Indian greatness as a colonial power, reproducible in the present and future. From the 1880s to the 1960s, protagonists of the Greater India theme attempted to make a case for the importance of an expansionist Indian civilisation in civilizing Southeast Asia. The argument was extended to include Central Asia, Africa, North and South America, and other regions where Indian migrants were to be found. The advocates of this Indocentric and Hindu revivalist approach, with Hindu and Indian often taken to be synonymous, were involved in a quintessentially parochial project, despite its apparently international dimensions: to justify an Indian expansionist imagination that viewed India’s past as a colonizer and civilizer of other lands as a model for the restoration of that past greatness in the future. Zabarskaite shows that the crucial ideologues and elements used for the formation of the construct of Greater India can be traced to the svadeśī movement of the turn of the century, and that Greater India moved easily between the domains of the scholarly and the popular as it sought to establish itself as a form of nationalist self-assertion.
