Money, particularly coins, has been one of the most significant inventions in human society. It is a marvel developed through centuries of experimentation and innovation. Since its introduction, money has continually evolved, serving as both, a medium of exchange in daily life and a store of wealth for the future. Among the earliest forms of money were coins, valued for their intrinsic material content, such as gold, silver, iron, and copper. Coins have played a vital role in human civilization, and over time, Indian coins have undergone numerous design transformations. Many people are often surprised when they come across older coins, which reflect the rich history and cultural heritage of India. Motivated by this fascination, I decided to collect various Indian coins, arrange them chronologically, and present them in this book. It will be helpful for this generation and the coming generations to know the journey of Indian Coins from 1947-2024. It is the need of the hour, as our monetary system is on the way to digitalisation. It is possible that in few years, coins can only be seen in museums as relics of the past. This book serves as a guiding light, illuminating the glorious journey of Indian coins for all to see and appreciate.
Just for a moment, imagine yourself to be the ace archer Arjuna who upon seeing his kin, Gurus and the estimable Bhishma, slumps to the ground in the gargantuan battlefield of Kurukshetra where the blood-thirsty Kauravas were prepared to go to war to retain the precious trophy of Hastinapur. At that crucial juncture Lord Krishna, Arjuna’s charioteer, decodes the majesty of Universe by revealing the secret of his SOHUM swarupe and defogs the mind of his beloved sakha, Arjuna. Soon the fabled marksman is battled-ready to combat his cousins, having been rescued from a life of ignominy. SOHUM is the syllable of the unique rhythmic breathing technique of Sudarshan Kriya, which has transfigured the lives of millions of people across the globe. Divine Whispers, similar to the grandiose revelation by Lord Krishna, are pearls of wisdom uttered by H. H. Sri Sri Ravi Shankar. This book is a collation of 365 quotes of the spiritual Master (one quote for every day of the year) on a variety of subjects that confront us in our daily lives. By dwelling on these quotes the reader can elevate his consciousness and metamorphose into a spiritual being, still and silent from within. As we move into the new decade, these 365 quotes will suffuse us with energy to become productive individuals, build powerful societies and nations. Humans can develop a necklace of One World Family and live harmoniously by eschewing avarice and violence. Jai GuruDev Victory to the Big Mind.
