GITA for Gen A to Z

Volume I of III

By: Ram Prakash Singhal

Gita leads us from spiritual infancy to maturity, impulsive irrationality to intelligent rationalism, and agitation to tranquility. ‘G-OO-D’ contains two ‘O’s between ‘G’, the God, and ‘D’, the Devil. First ‘O’ near ‘G’ denotes Obeisance to God; and second ‘O’, near Devil, denotes Obfuscation. Eliminate Obfuscation from life to see God in everything ‘Good’. Ego and prejudice are the earplugs that stop us from listening to inner voice of God. Enjoy the 3 D film of life by wearing spectacle of Anaasakti, the indifference. Orthodoxy is the peel of a banana whose pulp is Dharm. We shouldn’t set foot on the peel and slip into gutter but relish soul-nourishing pulp. Our senses must follow our commands like the ‘Genie’ of Aladdin’s lamp. The best batsman defends his wicket by driving every ball to boundary but the less skilled runs to score; and the least skilled is bowled out. Dharm appears as the ferocious tiger Richard Parker in the film ‘Life of Pi’. Initially Pi struggles to save himself from tiger; then it suddenly dawns on him that the tiger is an indispensible anchor of his life in the boat. His simple attitudinal change saves the beast and himself.

Imperial from the Beginning

The Constitution of the Original Executive

By: Saikrishna Bangalore Prakash

Eminent scholar Saikrishna Prakash offers the first truly comprehensive study of the original American presidency. Drawing from a vast range of sources both well known and obscure, this volume reconstructs the powers and duties of the nation’s chief executive at the Constitution’s founding. Among other subjects, Prakash examines the term and structure of the office of the president, his power as constitutional executor of the law, his foreign policy authority, his role as commander in chief, the president’s authority during emergencies, and his relations with the U.S. Congress, the courts, and the states. This ambitious and even-handed analysis counters numerous misconceptions about the presidency and fairly demonstrates that the office has long been regarded as monarchical.

Emergency Chronicles

Indira Gandhi and Democracy's Turning Point

By: Gyan Prakash

The gripping story of an explosive turning point in the history of modern India On the night of June 25, 1975, Indira Gandhi declared a state of emergency in India, suspending constitutional rights and rounding up her political opponents in midnight raids across the country. In the twenty-one harrowing months that followed, her regime unleashed a brutal campaign of coercion and intimidation, arresting and torturing people by the tens of thousands, razing slums, and imposing compulsory sterilization on the poor. Emergency Chronicles provides the first comprehensive account of this understudied episode in India’s modern history. Gyan Prakash strips away the comfortable myth that the Emergency was an isolated event brought on solely by Gandhi’s desire to cling to power, arguing that it was as much the product of Indian democracy’s troubled relationship with popular politics. Drawing on archival records, private papers and letters, published sources, film and literary materials, and interviews with victims and perpetrators, Prakash traces the Emergency’s origins to the moment of India’s independence in 1947, revealing how the unfulfilled promise of democratic transformation upset the fine balance between state power and civil rights. He vividly depicts the unfolding of a political crisis that culminated in widespread popular unrest, which Gandhi sought to crush by paradoxically using the law to suspend lawful rights. Her failure to preserve the existing political order had lasting and unforeseen repercussions, opening the door for caste politics and Hindu nationalism. Placing the Emergency within the broader global history of democracy, this gripping book offers invaluable lessons for us today as the world once again confronts the dangers of rising authoritarianism and populist nationalism.

Yoga American Style

By: Prem Prakash

This is not about yoga for the masses looking to improve their bodies. It is, instead, about the timeless essence of what yoga actually is. Written with Americans in mind, it explains the practical philosophy and psychology of the deep spiritual path of true, ancient yoga. Unlike a scholarly tome that gathers dust on library shelves, the author's words speak to regular people in their stress-filled daily lives. He applies yoga to the cultural matrix of earning a living, raising children, finding employment in a jobless market, aptly demonstrating how yoga psychology is meant to lighten our problem-saturated times.

Winning the Green New Deal

Why We Must, How We Can

By: Varshini Prakash,Guido Girgenti

An urgent and definitive collection of essays from leaders and experts championing the Green New Deal—and a detailed playbook for how we can win it—including contributions by leading activists and progressive writers like Varshini Prakash, Rhiana Gunn-Wright, Bill McKibben, Rev William Barber II, and more. In October 2018, scientists warned that we have less than 12 years left to transform our economy away from fossil fuels, or face catastrophic climate change. At that moment, there was no plan in the US to decarbonize our economy that fast. Less than two years later, every major Democratic presidential candidate has embraced the vision of the Green New Deal—a rapid, vast transformation of our economy to avert climate catastrophe while securing economic and racial justice for all. What happened? A new generation of leaders confronted the political establishment in Washington DC with a simple message: the climate crisis is here, and the Green New Deal is our last, best hope for a livable future. Now comes the hard part: turning that vision into the law of the land. In Winning a Green New Deal, leading youth activists, journalists, and policymakers explain why we need a transformative agenda to avert climate catastrophe, and how our movement can organize to win. Featuring essays by Varshini Prakash, cofounder of Sunrise Movement; Rhiana Gunn-Wright, Green New Deal policy architect; Joseph Stiglitz, Nobel Prize–winning economist; Bill McKibben, internationally renowned environmentalist; Mary Kay Henry, the President of the Service Employees International Union, and others we’ll learn why the climate crisis cannot be solved unless we also confront inequality and racism, how movements can redefine what’s politically possible and overcome the opposition of fossil fuel billionaires, and how a Green New Deal will build a just and thriving economy for all of us. For anyone looking to understand the movement for a Green New Deal, and join the fight for a livable future, there is no resource as clear and practical as Winning the Green New Deal.

European Commercial Enterprise in Pre-Colonial India

By: Om Prakash

European traders first appeared in India at the end of the fifteenth century and began exporting goods to Europe as well as to other parts of Asia. In a detailed analysis of the trading operations of European corporate enterprises such as the English and Dutch East India Companies, as well as those of private European traders, this book considers how, over a span of three centuries, the Indian economy expanded and was integrated into the pre-modern world economy as a result of these interactions. The book also describes how this essentially market-determined commercial encounter changed in the latter half of the eighteenth century as the colonial relationship between Britain and the subcontinent was established. By bringing together and examining the existing literature, the author provides a fascinating overview of the impact of European trade on the pre-modern Indian economy which will be of value to students of Indian, European and colonial history.

Precious Metals and Commerce

The Dutch East India Company in the Indian Ocean Trade

By: Om Prakash

Precious metals played a key role in inter-continental trade between Europe and Asia in the early modern period. An assured supply of these metal was indeed a pre-requisite to the procurement of Asian goods such as spices, textiles and raw silk. Once these metals had been imported into Asia, they were converted into the coinage of the country concerned. The 'bullion for goods' pattern of trade had important implications for the level of output, income, employment and prices in the Asian societies. This collection of essays by Professor Om Prakash explores these issues in relation mainly to the Dutch East India Company. Given the scale of its operations, as well as its unique character as the only European corporate group to engage in large scale intra-Asian trade as an integral part of its overall trading strategy, the VOC is a particularly appropriate medium through which to analyse these issues. Les métaux précieux jouèrent in rôle clef dans le commerce international entre l’Europe et l’Asie au début de la période moderne. La présence d’un stock assuré de ces métaux était, en effet, un facteur nécessaire afin de se procurer des produits asiatiques tels les épices, les textiles et la soie grège. Une fois importés en Asie, ces métaux étaient convertis dans le monnaie du pays concerné. La structure commerciale du bullion for goods avait des implications importantes en ce qui concernait le niveau de production, l’emploi et les prix au sein des sociétés asiatiques. Cette collestion d’essais du professeur Om Prakash explore ces questions en relation plus particulièrement avec la conpagnie hollandaise d’Inde Orientale. Etant donnée l’envergure de ses opérations, ainsi que son caractère unique en tant que seule corporation européenne engagée dans un commerciale, le VOC est un particulièrement bon exemple à travers lequel analyser ces questions.

The Yoga of Spiritual Devotion

A Modern Translation of the Narada Bhakti Sutras

By: Prem Prakash

• The first translation of this great but little-known path of spiritual devotion written for the modern Western audience. • An insightful commentary aimed at making the path of love immediately accessible to Westerners. • A life-affirming and relationship-positive path of yoga. • Written in the spirit of the kirtans (ecstatic songs and dances) of Narada, sensitively translated by Prem Prakash. Bhakti Yoga, the path of devotion, is considered one of the primary paths for spiritual realization in yogic tradition. Its representative, Narada, is the embodiment of the enlightened sage who travels the universe spreading his sacred teachings. Unlike Jnana Yoga, the Yoga of Wisdom, the bhakti acolyte does not discriminate against material phenomena--for him, all phenomena are aspects of God. Within the context of Ananda, blissful love, the temporal is realized as the reflection of the eternal, and the soul is realized as the expression of God.

From Change to Transformation and Beyond

Maintaining Balance on the Fast Track of Life

By: Omar Prakash Chouhan

Praise for From Change to Transformation and Beyond "I have had the distinct pleasure of working with Dr. Prakash and know firsthand of his passion and unique qualities in working with people. This book is a wonderful expression of his gift in understanding 'Transformative Changes' that unfold in each of our lives. I'm certain that when you follow the practices in his book you too will experience a deeper awakening and joy in the unfolding of life as it happens." -Wade Lindstrom, Director of Coaching, Professional Education Institute "I met Dr. Prakash at a professional meeting im 2009. My life has never been the same! His life lessons and his introduction to mediation have been inspiring and touched my life in a very deep way. Just being in the presence of this man is transformational!. -Dr. Jayne Gardner, Principal, the Gardner Institute, a training school for people wanting to become spiritual coaches "No one sets out to create an unsuccessful life. That goes without saying. But how to create a successful life is the journey of a lifetime. It starts with practice, practicing right relationship with the mind, practicing right relationship with the emotions; practicing right relationships with the present moment; practicing right relationship with inner and outer based relationships. So as you can see, a successful life is the natural by-product of a wise and transformative, well-executed practice. Dr. Prakash has written the definitive bible on transformational change. His wisdom offers us more than just the fine art of 'practice makes perfect.' He offers the transcendent gift of how to practice to realize you are perfect. Warning: This book contains the seeds of a transformational personal revolution. Read at the risk of creating a wildly successful life." -Vaishali, author of You Are What You Love and Wisdom Rising, syndicated radio show host, and life management expert "Om Prakash is a very wise soul. He once taught a group of coaches at Mentor Coach to meditate. I walked away with the ability to meditate and an overwhelming sense of his passion and energy for life and giving. His keen intelligence andwarmth of character draw people to him. Om has had many successes in his life and the people he has touched are better for their contact with him." -Anne Durand, MCC "The desire to become, to transform, has taken on new meaning in these tumultuous times. People are hearing the call to a more mindful life, a life of authentic and right choice. Dr. Prakash brings a rich background and strong voice to those who aspire for balance and the deeper meaning. Change is inevitable; how you move in change is not. Dr, Prakesh leads you on a path of centered practices designed enrich your personal journey." -Deanna Stull, General Manager, CoachVille and the Center for Coaching Mastery

Terrorism in Northern India

Jammu and Kashmir and the Punjab

By: Ved Prakash

This two volume book is a comprehensive study of insurrections in Jammu and Kashmir (1979 till date) and the Punjab (late 1970s to the early 1990s). Belonging to the Punjab, the Author has been a life-long student of militancy in the state. Consequent to the long tenures in the Valley and in Ladakh, he had an opportunity to study all aspects of the insurgency fuelled by the Islamist terrorism in this border state. The field study was complemented by long years of secondary research after his retirement. Having suffered over 50,000 fatalities in Jammu and Kashmir, India has the dubious distinction of being the worst Victim of the scourge called terrorism. Dealing with the terrorism in Jammu and Kashmir is not an easy proposition, with the Islamic factor complicating the issue. Despite the tall claims made by the security establishment and the Army authorities, the optimism is misplaced. Yet again, hardline Sikh separatist sentiment is very much alive just below the surface. The current Sikh-Dera Sacha Sauda tensions and clashes in Punjab and Haryana only go to indicate that any complacency on the issue uncalled for. All these aspects have been discussed in the book, and duly evaluated. India has shown maximum accommodation to the Islamist and Sikh separatists in the two states. Any further pandering to these merchants of death will only pose a serious threat to the nation s integrity. The book has warned the lily-livered Indians against soft-pedalling on the terrorist depredations. It is time for some hard decisions.
