Rama: A Man of Dharma

Although Valmiki’s Ramayana has been enjoyed for millennia, it is not widely known that it is the oldest existing piece of literature in the world.
This translation of Valmiki’s Ramayana, Rama: A Man of Dharma, is a compelling read while remaining true to the original work. It brings Valmiki’s ancient Sanskrit epic to you in lucid English without diluting the poet’s intent.

Read this book and be amazed at the high thinking of our ancestors. The values we cherish today―democracy, liberty, equality and justice―are core to this story. Rama is an embodiment of the type of righteousness that never loses relevance, making him a man who is a role model in every age

Life Is A Battlefield

Like Arjuna, every human being must navigate the battlefield of life, so the Gita speaks to us all, providing invaluable coping skills to handle adversities that inevitably arise along the way. In this book, Priya Arora clubs together verses that have a common theme or concept, such as the power of focus and how actions have consequences, and goes on to explain the instructions that the Gita offers on how to handle these situations. She contextualizes the verse and explains what the takeaway is meant to be. The Gita’s spiritual teachings are forever pertinent because they are not born of the social constraints or moral conventions of a particular time in history. Instead, Krishna shows the path to overcoming suffering by adopting the right attitude to adversity. This wonderful interpretation and explanation of the Gita shows the abiding relevance of Krishna’s instruction in our lives today.
