"India is the cradle of the human race, the birthplace of human speech, the mother of history, the grandmother of legend and great grandmother of tradition. Mark Twain Essence of Indian Thought is about the contribution of India to the thoughts, cultures and traditions of the world. The debt owed by the west to other civilisations and to India in particular, goes back to the earliest epoch of the ‘Western’ scientific tradition, the age of the classical Greeks and continued up until the dawn of the modern era, the renaissance when Europe was awakening from its Dark Ages. This book is an humble attempt to put together some of the aspects of India’s contribution to the thoughts of the world. Upanishads and Yoga both speak of universal values and constitute the heritage of all peoples. Other subjects like Ayurveda, Kamasutra and various forms of Indian arts-painting, music and dance have been analysed and discussed elaborately. The book draws attention to the Indian art of storytelling, the origin of mathematics, including the zero and decimal system.

"The Qur’an is one of the most widely read books in the world. For more than fourteen hundred years the Qur’an has remained one of the major sources of inspiration for a good life for millions across the seven continents. The Selections from the Qur’an rendered by Mr. Ghai into clear intelligible English, is a bold and creative attempt to bring to the attention of the common people, the essence and wide range of the teachings of the Qur’an. It would undoubtedly be a source of knowledge, enlightenment and inspiration. It would promote a better understanding of Islam and of the message that Muhammad conveyed to all mankind - Rasheeduddin Khan To the ever-growing number of English-speaking readers looking for a volume which will tell them the essential message of the Qur’an in one sitting, I cannot commend a book as readily as the present one. - S. A. Ali, former Director ,Institute of Islamic Studies, Hamdard University

The Celestial Dancers: Manipuri Dance on Australian Stage charts the momentous journey of the popularization of Manipur’s Hindu dances in Australia. Tradition has it that the people of Manipur, a northeastern state of India, are descended from the celestial gandharvas, dance and music blessed among them as a God’s gift. The intricately symbolic Hindu dances of Manipur in their original religious forms were virtually unseen and unknown outside India until an Australian impresario, Louise Lightfoot, brought them to the stage in the 1950s. Her experimental changes through a pioneering collaboration with dancers Rajkumar Priyagopal Singh and Ibetombi Devi modernized Manipuri dance for presentation on a global stage. This partnership moved Manipur’s Hindu dances from the sphere of ritualistic temple practice to a formalized stage art abroad. Amit Sarwal chronicles how this movement, as in the case of other prominent Indian classical dances and dancers, enabled both Manipuri dance and dancers to gain recognition worldwide. This book is ideal for anyone with an interest in Hindu temple dance, Manipur dance, cross-cultural collaborations and the globalizing of Indian Classical Dance. The Celestial Dancers is a comprehensive study of how an exceptional Hindu dance form developed on the global stage.

The Dancing God: Staging Hindu Dance in Australia charts the sensational and historic journey of de-provincialising and popularising Hindu dance in Australia. In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, colonialism, orientalism and nationalism came together in various combinations to make traditional Hindu temple dance into a global art form. The intricately symbolic Hindu dance in its vital form was virtually unseen and unknown in Australia until an Australian impresario, Louise Lightfoot, brought it onto the stage. Her experimental changes, which modernised Kathakali dance through her pioneering collaboration with Indian dancer Ananda Shivaram, moved the Hindu dance from the sphere of ritualistic practice to formalised stage art. Amit Sarwal argues that this movement enabled both the authentic Hindu dance and dancer to gain recognition worldwide and created in his persona a cultural guru and ambassador on the global stage. Ideal for anyone with an interest in global dance, The Dancing God is an in-depth study of how a unique dance form evolved in the meeting of travellers and cultures.

Secrets of Living is based on the teachings of Bhagawad Gita, one of the most widely read books in the world. In today's busy life, we hardly get any time to meditate deeper into the meaning and purpose of life. We tend to take certain things for granted such as our status, wealth, educational achievements, etc.and also presume that they will be given to us in our next birth. But scriptures do not endorse this view. All our possessions, or the lack of them, are the result of our karma in the previous births. We rewrite our destiny everyday for our future births. Hence we should decide our actions in accordance with the teachings of our scriptures and not allow our materialistic aspirations to distort our understanding and conduct in this world. Also one should not wait till the old age to start reading the scriptures. The right age to read scriptures is as early as one gets the consciousness so as to minimize the loss of deep, illuminating thoughts which an insightful reading of Bhagavad Gita entails and hence, engage in righteous actions. The divine wisdom of Lord Krishna, encapsulated in the Bhagavad Gita, is addressed to each and evert individual to help solving perplexing problems and progress towards a brighter future.

Oftentimes the most painful experiences are the ones in which we learn the most about ourselves. Linda Onita Hardin-Atkins's personal journal chronicles her life: from the tender age of eleven, through the devastating pain of losing her father, and to the present-day awareness of the true essence of who she is. Hardin-Atkins discovered at a very young age that life was a vast greatness of unexplored questions. This discovery was the true beginning of spiritual awareness - a constant subtleness of something else - something more. Her journey took flight when she reached her mid-thirties and suffered what she describes as unbearable mental pain and anguish after the death of her beloved father. Searching for meaning, she studied philosophy, religion and meditation. After an intensely draining, yet amazingly clarifying meditation, a voice spoke to her, Write an autobiography about your life experiences over the last 28 years. As her deeply buried emotions emerged, Hardin-Atkins was finally able to let go of the limbo that bound her. Surrendering, she found the missing link that she so desperately needed to move forward and embrace the beauty of life, love and joy. Thoughts Are Things With Sterling Wings is a compelling, compassionate and beautiful rendering of a woman's spiritual journey. Astounding in its insights, this narrative is for anyone who wishes to discover the freedom of letting go and letting God in. Linda Onita Hardin-Atkins is a writer who lives near San Pablo, California. Publisher's website: http: //www.strategicpublishinggroup.com/title/ThoughtsAreThingsWithSterlingWings.htm
