Bhakti Yoga by Swami Vivekananda (Hardcover)
- ISBN : 978-8182479128
- Page : 94
- Dimensions : 22 x 14 x 1 cm
Bhakti Yoga, or the path of devotion, is based on the doctrine Love is God and God is Love. The Bhakti yogi experiences separation and longs to meet or even just glimpses his beloved, God. Nothing else attract him, nothing else holds his attention, all else is meaningless. Bhakti Yoga appeals particularly to those of an emotional nature. The Bhakti Yogi is motivated chiefly by the power of love and sees God as the embodiment of Love. Through prayer, worship and ritual he surrenders himself to God, channelling and transmuting his emotions into unconditional love or devotion. Chanting or singingthe praises of God form a substantial part of Bhakti Yoga

Hindu Pad-Padashahi By Veer Savakar (Hardcover)
Vinayak Damodar Savarkar, also known as Swatantryaveer Savarkar, was a freedom fighter and an Indian independence leader and politician who coined the Hindu nationalist ideology of Hindutva. “Hindu Pad Padshahi,” refers to the idea of establishing a Hindu monarchy or a Hindu kingdom. This concept was proposed by Savarkar as part of his vision for India’s future. He believed that an independent India should be a Hindu- majority nation, where Hindu culture and values would be dominant. Savarkar’s ideas and philosophy, on the concept of “Hindu Pad Padshahi,” have been subjects of both praise and criticism. While some consider him a visionary and a champion of Hindu rights, others criticize his ideology for its emphasis on religious identity and its potential exclusionary nature.

Hindu Tales From The Sanskrit by S. M. Mitra (Hardback)
- Page : 120
- ISBN : 9789394885820
- Dimensions : 22.5 x 14.5 x 1 cm
Thanks to Mr. S. M. Mitra, the well-known Hindu psychologist and politician, who has done so much to draw more closely together the land of his birth and that of his adoption, I am able to bring within reach of English children a number of typical Hindu Tales, translated by him from the Sanskrit, some of them culled from the ancient classics of India, others from widely separated sources. The latter have hitherto been quite inaccessible to western students, as they are not yet embodied in literature, but have been transmitted orally from generation to generation for many centuries.
