Life is a cycle of good and evil. No matter how much we fight it, change is inevitable. Joy and sorrow, light and darknessthese are complementary. The darkest night is followed by a radiant dawn, but then again arrives the night with another glorious morning following in its wake. Human existence goes on in this way, especially for Anjali Vardhan. In her arranged marriage, young Anjali finds happiness with a husband who strives to do good in the world. Despite all the goodness they achieve together, they lose their first child to miscarriage. Anjali loses her loved ones to death. Yet, life goes on, as Anjali finds fulfillment in her career as well as a second, successful chance at motherhood. Still, life is not all laughter and joy. Struggles are the philosophers stone that would transmute the human soul to greater levels of perfection. Despite Anjalis many difficulties, she knows the unseen hand of God that rests on her back, upholding her and steadying her when she stumbles on lifes rough-hewn paths. She refuses to let despair shake the bedrock of her faith.
Linguistic Rivalries weaves together anthropological accounts of diaspora, nation, and empire to explore and analyze the multi-faceted processes of globalization characterizing the migration and social integration experiences of Tamil-speaking immigrants and refugees from India and Sri Lanka to Montréal, Québec in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. In Montréal, a city with more trilingual speakers than in any other North American city, Tamil migrants draw on their multilingual repertoires to navigate longstanding linguistic rivalries between anglophone and francophone, and Indian and Sri Lankan nationalist leaders by arguing that Indians speak "Spoken Tamil" and Sri Lankans speak "Written Tamil" as their respective heritage languages. Drawing on ethnographic, archival, and linguistic methods to compare and contrast the communicative practices and language ideologies of Tamil heritage language learning in Hindu temples, Catholic churches, public schools, and community centers, this book demonstrates how processes of sociolinguistic differentiation are mediated by ethnonational, religious, class, racial, and caste hierarchies. Indian Tamils showcase their use of the "cosmopolitan" sounds and scripts of colloquial varieties of Tamil to enhance their geographic and social mobilities, whereas Sri Lankan Tamils, dispossessed of their homes by civil war, instead emphasize the "primordialist" sounds and scripts of a pure "literary" Tamil to rebuild their homeland and launch a "global" critique of racism and environmental destruction from the diaspora. This book uses the ethnographic and archival study of Tamil mobility and immobility to expose the mutual constitution of elite and non-elite global modernities, defined as language ideological projects in which migrants objectify dimensions of time and space through scalar metaphors.

This is a completely new translation of Nagarjuna's major work, the Mulamadhyamakakarika, accompanied by a detailed annotation of each of the verses. The annotation identifies the metaphysical theories of the scholastics criticized by Nagarjuna, and traces the source material and the arguments utilized in his refutation back to the early discourses of the Buddha. The Introduction presents a completely new hypothesisthe nature of the treatise. The work is a grand commentary on the Buddha's "Discourse to Katyayana" (Kaccayanaqotta-sutta). The concluding part of the Introduction compares the teachings of the Buddha and Nagarjuna in regard to epistemology, ontology, ethics and philosophy of language indicating how the latter was making a determined attempt to reconstruct the Buddha's teachings in a very faithful manner, avoiding the substantialist metaphysics of the scholastics. The book shows that Nagarjuna's ideas are neither original nor are they an advancement from the early Buddhist period. Nagarjuna is not a Mahayanist.

Central Sales Tax (CST) is levied on the interstate sale of goods. CST is one of the oldest tax levies and has been around since 1957. This law is by the Central Government but the administration is by the States. CST levy is set at local rates. The revenue neutral rates which apply to most commodities in States goes up to 15%. The lower rate of 2% is available against Form C which can be issued by specified persons (resellers, manufacturers, processors etc) and cannot be issued by consumers. The State VAT laws have been in place since 2003. The payment of tax, filing of returns, assessment, reassessment etc under CST are all as per the local VAT laws which are ever changing and quite draconian. The quality of the administrators in general also leaves a lot to be desired. There are many disputes and demands for differential taxes from VAT departments in most states for wrong issuance of C Form in situations where goods were not permitted to be procured against Form C. GST would be in place by April 2017 if all goes well. However, CST law is expected to continue as a parallel levy at 1% after 1st April 2017 for a couple of years. This could lead to CST continuing to be non-vattable even under GST regime and an add-on to costs incurred by the dealers. In this book we have covered important concepts, case laws and possible dispute areas along with resolution. The movement of goods on stock transfer basis, subsequent sale, sale in course of import and export are a few of the important areas where tax planning and savings are possible. The student who wishes to understand sales tax law could use this as a ready reference. This book contains practical tips for common issues faced by practitioners in this area as well. The probable impact of GST laws on concepts discussed is touched on in most chapters.
