भीमराव रामजी आंबेडकर केवल भारतीय संविधान के निर्माता एवं करोड़ों शोषित-पीडि़त भारतीयों के मसीहा ही नहीं थे, वे अग्रणी समाज-सुधारक, श्रेष्ठ विचारक, तत्त्वचिंतक, अर्थशास्त्री, शिक्षाशास्त्री, पत्रकार, धर्म के ज्ञाता, कानून एवं नीति निर्माता और महान् राष्ट्रभक्त थे। उन्होंने समाज और राष्ट्रजीवन के हर पहलू पर अपनी अमिट छाप छोड़ी है। सामाजिक समता और बंधुता के आधार पर एक नूतन भारत के निर्माण की नींव रखी। उनका व्यक्तित्व एक विराट् सागर और कृतित्व उत्तुंग हिमालय जैसा था। विगत अनेक वर्षों से वैचारिक अस्पृश्यता और राजनीतिक स्वार्थ के लगातार बढ़ते जा रहे विस्तार ने हमारे जिन राष्ट्रनायकों के बारे में अनेक भ्रांतियुक्त धारणाओं को जनमानस में मजबूत करने का दूषित प्रयत्न किया है, उनमें डॉ. बाबासाहब आंबेडकर प्रमुख हैं। उन्हें किसी जाति या वर्ग विशेष अथवा दल विशेष तक सीमित कर दिए जाने के कारण सामाजिक समता-समरसता ही नहीं, राष्ट्रीय एकता की भी अपूरणीय क्षति हो रही है। इस दृष्टि से चार खंडों में उनका व्यक्तित्व-कृतित्व वर्णित है : खंड एक—‘जीवन दर्शन’, खंड दो—‘व्यक्ति दर्शन’, खंड तीन—‘आयाम दर्शन’ और खंड चार ‘राष्ट्र दर्शन’। डॉ. बाबासाहब भीमराव आंबेडकर को समग्रता में प्रस्तुत करने वाला एक ऐसा अनन्य दस्तावेज है, जो उनके बारे में फैले या फैलाए गए सारे भ्रमों का निवारण करने में तो समर्थ है ही, साथ ही उन्हें एक चरम कोटि के दृष्टापुरुष तथा राष्ट्रनायक के रूप में प्रस्थापित करने में भी पूर्णतः सक्षम है।

In this book an attempt has been made to compare the two legendary writers by comparing the eastern way of thinking with the western way. Shakespeare is amongst the writers Sri Aurobindo holds in high esteem. Sri Aurobindo’s admiration for the great dramatist resulted in obvious Shakespearean influences on him. He adopts for his plays Elizabethan model of drama perfected by Shakespeare’s genius. Shakespeare’s influence is traceable also in Sri Aurobindo’s sonnets. It is said that Sri Aurobindo had Shakespearean literature on his bed-side when he left his mortal remains. Both the great writers were not satisfied by merely holding mirror to the nature but due to their greater and deeper life power, they recreated the human life in its beauty and completeness. Therefore, there is an obvious need to compare and contrast Shakeapeare and Sri Aurobindo so as to bring out affinities that may be there between their creative ideal and vision as well as their poetic and dramatic art, along with the former’s influence on the later. In this book an attempt has been made to fulfill the need and to contribute, in some measure to the appreciation of Sri Aurobindo’s poetry and plays. It also briefly touches upon Indian response to Shakespeare. It focuses mainly on Sri Aurobindo’s numerous insights and critical observations on him. To sum up writings of the two such outstanding writers, who represent two very different ways of thinking. On one hand Shakespeare potrays lot of blood shed, gory tales and a wild kind of poetic justice in his writings, but on the other hand Sri Aurobindo truely follows Indian ethos of non violence or ‘Ahimsa’. The author underlines the stark similarities and differences in both the writer’s exploring their plays and sonnets. The structure of plays and sonnets may be same of both the greatest minds but ethos and personna ingrained in their writings is quite different.

Selected Readings of Sri Ramanuja: Sri Ramanujacharya is one of the three great acharyas whose Sahasramanotsava was recently celebrated with joy and grandeur. His efforts to uplift the poor and oppressed are remarkable. Over his 120-year life, he authored numerous works to inspire devotion in the masses by emphasising the concept of Saranagati or Prapatti (self-surrender to God). Scholars from both Eastern and Western traditions, including Swami Vivekananda and Dr. S. Radhakrishnan, as well as Goethe and Ninian Smart, have honoured Ramanuja with high praise. His altruistic service, compassion, and love for the uneducated and impoverished remain relevant today. This book, in 25 chapters, explores the influence of the Vishishtadvaita philosophy within Indian tradition, organised into three sections: Predecessors of Ramanuja, Ramanuja himself, and his Successors. The final chapter discusses Ramanuja's enduring significance for the 21st century, offering a comprehensive overview of his contributions to Indian thought.

One Immigrant, A Hundred Stories is Debajyoti Chatterji’s intimate reflection on a life shaped by family, culture, and the immigrant experience. It is a story told not for the public eye but for his children and their descendants. Through vivid recollections, he explores his upbringing in India, the challenges of building a new life in America, and the insights gained along the way. With a blend of personal memories and reflections on his research, Chatterji offers a view of his journey that is deeply personal and universally relatable to anyone who has faced the complexities of navigating two cultures. This memoir is a thoughtful collection of moments that reveal the essence of his life as a Bengali immigrant—one who, with unwavering commitment, continues to hold fast to his language, culture, and identity. Written for his family, it is a legacy of love, understanding, and heritage passed from generation to generation.

"From Hampi to Harappa" is considered among the top ten Telugu autobiographies of the twentieth century. Ramachandra's honesty, self-reflection, and the conflict between his traditional Vaishnava beliefs and modern education make this book remarkable. During the nationalist struggle, he was attracted to extremist ideas but found his own path again through personal struggles. It's astonishing that someone who was a great scholar in Sanskrit, Telugu, Kannada, and Prakrit, had to experience hunger and travel across India to find work to feed himself in the 1930s and 40s. The book is filled with unbelievable incidents, such as his mentor Veturi Prabhakara Sastry experiencing extreme hunger while the author survived on very little food. Similarly, he survived on Ganga water for almost a month while waiting in Kanpur for a conman who had promised a business partnership. He did a variety of jobs, including working as a cataloguer in manuscript libraries, a hotel worker, and a Havaldar clerk in the military, before finally settling in a newspaper. Through his experiences, Ramachandra provides us with glimpses of the civilizations around Hampi and Harappa and insights into modern India during the Independence Movement.

Discovered in the attic in which she spent the last years of her life, Anne Frank's remarkable diary has since become a world classic—a powerful reminder of the horrors of war and an eloquent testament to the human spirit. The Diary is a lot of things all at once. It is an amusing, enlightening, and often moving account of the process of adolescence, as Anne describes her thoughts and feelings about herself and the people around her, the world at large, and life in general. It is an accurate record of the way a young girl grows up and matures, in the very special circumstances in which Anne found herself throughout the two years during which she was in hiding. And it is also a vividly terrifying description of what it was like to be a Jew — and in hiding— at a time when the Nazis sought to kill all the Jews of Europe.

Whatever has been written about Dr Syama Prasad Mookerjee so far doesn't do justice to his tremendous and multi-faceted personality. This leading sentiment is behind the motivation for writing the present book. A lot has been written about Dr Mookerjee's political endeavours. However, his persona is immeasurably significant beyond his political life. The simplest explanation of his life proclaims him master of social, educational and economic thought. This book attempts to know how Dr Mookerjee became a powerful personality, an educationist, a thinker, and an administrator. The focal point is to explore the new experiments and innovations he brought into the world of education. He always saw the role of education as of utmost importance in the process of national regeneration. Throughout his life, he spoke in favour of teaching, teachers and students. He was an educationist par excellence. It was under his tenure that Gurudev Rabindranath Tagore delivered the convocation address in Bengali, which was no less than a revolution in British India. This book will help the readers see the profound blending of tolerance, humanity, and tradition, together with the scientific outlook in the personality of Dr Syama Prasad Mookerjee.

ज्योतिपुंज—नरेंद्र मोदी संसार में उन्हीं मनुष्यों का जन्म धन्य है, जो परोपकार और सेवा के लिए अपने जीवन का कुछ भाग अथवा संपूर्ण जीवन समर्पित कर पाते हैं। विश्व इतिहास का निर्माण करने में ऐसे ही सत्पुरुषों का विशेष योगदान रहा है। संसार के सभी देशों में सेवाभावी लोग हुए हैं; लेकिन भारतवर्ष की अपनी विशेषता रही है, जिसके कारण वह अपने दीर्घकाल के इतिहास को जीवित रख पाया है। किसी ने समय दिया, किसी ने जवानी दी, किसी ने धन और वैभव छोड़ा, किसी ने कारावास की असह्य पीड़ा सही। भारतवर्ष की धरती धन्य है और धन्य हैं वे सत्पुरुष, जिन्होंने राष्ट्रोत्थान को अपना जीवन-धर्म व लक्ष्य बनाया और अनवरत राष्ट्रकार्य में लीन रहे। उन्होंने भारत के गौरवशाली अतीत को जीवंत रखा और सशक्त-समर्थ भारत के स्वप्न को साकार करने के लिए अपने जीवन को होम कर दिया। ‘राष्ट्र सर्वोपरि’ को जीवन का मूलमंत्र माननेवाले ऐसे ही तपस्वी मनीषियों का पुण्य-स्मरण किया है स्वयं राष्ट्रसाधक श्री नरेंद्र मोदी ने इस पुष्पांजलि ज्योतिपुंज में।
