Srimad Bhagavad Gita
Srimad Bhagavad Gita presents “The Sermons from the Illustrious Lord Krsna to Arjuna,” compiled by the great ancient seer, Vyasa. Here is a rendering of Srimad Bhagavad Gita into English. While translating from Sanskrit into English, the author has spent about ten years in first realizing and then choosing the exact equivalent English words for translation so that the beauty, substance, meanings, dignity and grace of the original is not disturbed. Though the melody and magic of the verses is difficult to recapture in another medium, yet the author has tried his utmost to bring it in its best. To feel the dignity of phrase and the intensity of utterance, the author has given the text in Roman script so that those who know Sanskrit can enjoy its fullness while pondering over in its original, whereas others who do not know Sanskrit also get a fairly correct idea of the spirit of the poem. After putting up the text in Roman, it has been rearranged to facilitate the meaning of the verse. Then appear the word-for-word meaning and lastly the verse has been translated into English as exactly as possible so as not to deviate at all from its original.

About the Author(s)
Kailash Nath Kalia was born in Talwan (Punjab) and became increasingly interested in Indian philosophy during his active participation in the struggle for Indian independence. In 1950, he joined the Vishveshvaranand Vedic Research Institute (Hoshiarpur, Punjab), serving as its Assistant Director. In 1966 he moved to the United Kingdom and founded the Vivekananda Centre, a charitable organisation whose ethos allied service to spirituality. The Bhagavad Gita was fundamental to the author’s lifelong charitable work and service. He believed that the Gita’s inspirational teachings provided spiritual guidance for the individual and enabled mutual respect and understanding between people. Kailash Nath Kalia passed away on June 23, 1989. This book has been prepared posthumously from the manuscript he left behind. It is hoped that this work will help to disseminate the Gita’s message of universal harmony and spiritual enlightenment and so fulfil his cherished wish. *The author’s proceeds will be donated to charity.*

The Son of the God of Wind: The Exploits of Sri Hanumana
The Son of the God of Wind: The Exploits of Sri Hanumana
The majority of the population in India is devoutly religious. In India, a significant portion of the populace reveres Hanumana as a deity. Sri Hanumana ji temples can be found in every hamlet, town, and city in India. A lot of people are inspired, energised, and awakened by the spirit of Sri Hanumana Ji. It encourages them to work hard, be religious, and help others. As long as Sri Hanumana ji is around, he maintains them on the right road.
Because of his devotion to Sri Rama, Hanumana ji has lost his sense of self-identity and no longer exists independently of the Lord. He embodies all of the attributes that Sri Rama possesses. Hanumana, an avatar of Visnu, represents the pinnacle of Hindu devotion to Lord Rama. That is why he is so highly regarded.
The present work is the result of translation of selected stories about Sri Hanumana by late Pandit Atma Ram Sharma. Despite the fact that the translation only includes a few stories, the stories are all connected and make for an interesting read.
Nonresident Indians, who are always looking for a method to feel more deeply connected to their religious and cultural traditions, may find this book particularly interesting.

Message from Baba Hari Dass, Mount Madonna, Santa Cruz, California. ‘Hinduism: Path of the Ancient Wisdom’ gives the ancient history of Hinduism. The book is like a map of Hinduism, which shows from where one should start his or her spiritual journey, and where the journey ends. This is also a guidebook to those who don’t know what Hinduism is, especially for those Hindus who are settled in foreign countries and have no knowledge of their own religion.
Writing this book has been like playing the second inning of my life. The first inning was my medical career of over forty years in Mumbai, India. After retiring, my wife and I set up base in the United States. It was then that a friend gave me a book titled The Essentials of Hinduism by the learned Swami Bhaskarananda of Seattle, Washington. The book fascinated me so much that I read it many times and later developed a close relationship with the author. I resumed a childhood habit of reading extensively, but this time, my reading was not for just any book; rather, it was exclusively for works on Hinduism. There was an urge to explore and search the deeper meaning embedded in the Hindu faith.

Gayatri: The profound prayer
Gayatri: The profound prayer
Gayatri is a profound prayer. It is an authentic prayer that elevates, exhilarates and enlightens. According to Hindu scriptures, a prayer in its real sense is not just chanting of a few verses. It is a comprehensive exercise that involves jnana (knowledge), dhyana (meditation) and anubhava (experience). Gayatri Mahamantra is a true prayer that not only reaches out but also reaches in.
Gayatri is chanted as a Mahamantra, worshipped as the Mother Goddess and expressed as a Meter. It is not a prayer for worldly and material benefits. Gayatri is a prayer for the highest enlightenment. It is a prayer that leads to a sublime experience, a prayer that opens up our mind and vision, body and intellect to a world beyond the worldly attachments. It is a prayer that leads to the Ultimate Truth and Supreme Bliss that every enlightened human being seeks.
Gayatri, like the Vedas, is meant for the entire mankind, irrespective of gender, caste, creed, religion or nationality. It is a profound prayer that can touch and transform every human being.
This book is a good read for everyone who believes in the efficacy of prayer and meditation. It is also a good read for everyone who wishes to gain an insight into the breadth and depth of ancient Indian wisdom – the Sanathana Dharma. This informative book is meant for every generation, both young and old.
