Mamaji

Continents of Exile: 2

By: Ved Mehta

Book 2 in Ved Mehta's Continents of Exile series. Nearly 50 years in the making, Continents of Exile is one of the great works of twentieth-century autobiography: the epic chronicle of an Indian family in the twentieth century. From 1930s India to 1950s Oxford and literary New York in the 1960s-80s, this is the story of the post-colonial twentieth century, as uniquely experienced and vividly recounted by Ved Mehta. Translating individual experience into the universal, Mehta recounts the story of his mother's arranged marriage to a British-trained doctor and, by extension, of an ancient Indian family's struggle to find its place in a modern, rapidly changing world.

Daddyji

By: Ved Mehta

Daddyji is, at first glance, a biographical portrait of Amolak Ram Mehta, a distinguished Indian public-health officer, written by his son Ved Mehta, but in reality, as the story unfolds, it is seen to be a recreation, in crystalline detail, of a whole world—the everyday life of pre-Partition Lahore. Daddyji (1972) is the first book in Mehta’s extraordinary series of memoirs, Continents of Exile.

The Upanishads Demystified

Ethical values

By: Ved Prakash Bhatia

The Upanishads are a great mine of strength for leading a tension-free and peaceful life. Today, most of us feel a lot of turmoil and tensions due to an overemphasis by leading a materialistic style of living. Meditation (Upasana) and looking into our pure consciousness and the Divine sitting inside us, has been forgotten altogether. Hence, the need for 'going back to Upanishads' has become quite relevant to be imbibed. There is also a growing urge in us to realize your 'true self,'' keenly feeling the need to make our knowledge flow into wisdom, and a yearning to know about the infinite and the eternal inspires us. The Upanishads form the core of Indian philosophy - a fantastic collection of writings, aptly described by Shri Aurobindo as "the supreme work of the Indian mind". The Upanishads are summits of thought on humanity and the universe. The Upanishads asks a man to cultivate righteousness (dharma) and to enjoy wealth (artha) and seek pleasures (kama), but with a sense of detachment. Meditation on OM and enquiry into our inner divine Self are some of the essentials of the Upanisads. Eleven Major Upanisads have been covered by Mr. Ved Bhatia in a lucid easy comprehensible style.

The Red Letters

The last volume of Ved Mehta's Continents of Exile series. Nearly 50 years in the making, Continents of Exile is one of the great works of twentieth-century autobiography: the epic chronicle of an Indian family in the twentieth century. From 1930s India to 1950s Oxford and literary New York in the 1960s-80s, this is the story of the post-colonial twentieth century, as uniquely experienced and vividly recounted by Ved Mehta. During the clamour of a New York dinner party, Mehta is startled to find his father crying on his mother's shoulders. This episode begins a painful and revealing voyage into his father's personal history. In stark prose, Mehta unravels a passionate, clandestine affair that bore quiet yet extraordinary consequences for himself and his family. Red Letters also serves as a brilliant exploration and a recreation of British India: its sights and sounds, its injustices and its secrecy.

Compassion In The 4 Dharmic Traditions

COMPASSION IN THE 4 DHARMIC TRADITIONS: Exploring Empathy in Religions by Ed. Ved P. Nanda

By: Ed. Ved P. Nanda

The Dharmic traditions – Hinduism; Buddhism; Jainism; and Sikhism – share much in common; not with standing a number of variations among them. In all these traditions the scriptures; writings; and practices hold compassion as an integral part and a supreme virtue. This collection of essays by leading scholars from different disciplines aptly captures the essence of the religious and spiritual aspects of these traditions as they relate to compassion. Most of the authors are practitioner-scholars and are experts in their own disciplines; including sciences; humanities; social sciences; law; and religion. The experts met in September 2014 at Naropa University in Boulder; Colorado; for two days of lively deliberations under the auspices of the Uberoi Foundation for Religious Studies; which was established to spread awareness and promote understanding of the Dharmic traditions throughout North America. After addressing the ‘central and fundamental’ knowledge of these traditions and the common features and interactions among them; the essays here discuss compassion from various perspectives; such as relationship with the natural world and the environment; selfless service; and the treatment of animals. A final set of essays sheds light on the significance of compassion in each of these Dharmic traditions. As a comparative study; this is a unique collection from which a clear picture emerges of the central theme of moral and compassionate conduct in the Dharmic traditions. COMPASSION IN THE 4 DHARMIC TRADITIONS edited by VED P. NANDA: Explore the concept of compassion in the context of the four Dharmic traditions—Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, and Sikhism. This book likely offers readers an exploration of the teachings, philosophies, and practices of these traditions that emphasize compassion as a fundamental principle. It provides insights into the spiritual and ethical aspects of compassion. Key Aspects of the Book "COMPASSION IN THE 4 DHARMIC TRADITIONS": Dharmic Traditions: Learn about the role of compassion in Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, and Sikhism. Spiritual Ethics: Explore how compassion is central to the ethical teachings and practices of these traditions. Ved P. Nanda likely offers a comprehensive exploration of compassion in Dharmic traditions in "COMPASSION IN THE 4 DHARMIC TRADITIONS." This book highlights the shared value of compassion across these spiritual paths.

Part of a continuing series of biographies of Mehta's family in India, this one concerns his aged poor uncle Chachaji. This book is as much about the making of the documentary as it is about Chachaji, and thus depicts a poignant, frenzied, and often humorous confrontation between two utterly different ways of life.
