The Egyptian Queen Hatshepsut
Her successor Pharaoh Thutmose.

The Way To Communal Harmony |
$6.49 $4.87 |
Temporarily Out of Stock |
| The Way to Communal Harmony is a compilation of Gandhi's reflections on certain problems which divide mankind. Though they deal immediately with India, their validity extends beyond the circumstances of our country. Everywhere in the world, individuals and groups are divided because of fear, suspicion and hatred. It depends on local conditions whether the division expresses itself along religious, economic, political, caste or colour lines. Whatever be the form, insecurity is perhaps the major... |

Simla Village Tales |
$6.99 $5.24 |
|
| One cannot sojourn for long in the East without hearing strange stories, all
of which are vouched for by the natives. Most would make one's blood run
cold, but they are irresistibly fascinating. Filled with pathos but almost
always showing that every cloud has its silver lining, these tales carry the
reader into the mythical past that was India.
The majority of these tales have the raw transparency of folk art, whilst
others are fashinoned with uncommon... |

Uniting Men - Jean Monnet |
$7.49 $5.62 |
|
| This monograph presents the life and accomplishments of a man little known in
India, Jean Monnet.
He is considered as "the founding father of Europe", but in reality Monnet
has been much more than that. He has been an instrument at the service of a
vision.
That vision was a world that would not be divided by borders. From the first
World War to the creation of Europe, his life was entirely dedicated to uniting
men. |

Embracing Heaven & Earth |

This slender volume is a distillation of enormous wisdom about the most important thing for you... |

Spiritual Import of Religious Festivals |
$8.99 $6.74 |
Temporarily Out of Stock |
| The necessity which any religious adherent or spiritual seeker would feel for a book of this kind should be obvious. Generally, religion goes by rituals and performances of general routines come by way of tradition, but the mind of man, being what it is, also moves with the routine and does not always feel competent to visualize the vital role that religious observances play as vehicles which embody a deeper significance that may best be described as spiritual.
There is a meaning behind every... |

| A collection of editorial articles for Mother India from 1949 to 1952. These are of "immense value" because they were all approved by either Sri Aurobindo or the Mother, and their themes are as important and pressing today as when they were written.
After all, today "we are still debating the question of Indian nationalism, the meaning of national pride, the significance of the English language and the essential truths behind Hinduism." We are still confused about secularism and the legacy of... |
