Vaswani observes in clear and concise words, “So many of our ills would be cured, if only we could change the pattern of our mind. Change the mind, and you change the world...” Rev. Dada J.P. Vaswani's formula for transforming our life ‘from hell to heaven’ is quite straightforward and practical, like everything he teaches: “Heaven and Hell are of our own creation,” he tells us. “By thinking heavenly thoughts, we get into touch with heavenly forces and we feel happy – we spread the sunshine of joy wherever we go.”

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The master is also the greatest disciple. The followed is the biggest follower. And in his humility lie the greatest lessons of life. The first thing that strikes the author about Dada Vawasni is his extraordinary humility and how his laughter reaches his sparkling eyes—the signs of a great master and yet a reluctant one at that. Their conversations are light, fun and full of cheer and yet, within them there is the depth and wisdom of life and beyond. What is prayer? What are the duties of a householder? What is the life of surrender... Their talks range from the concept karma to the role of the guru; from leading a spiritual life to the light of God. And within these questions and conversations are answers to the many spiritual questions that a seeker might have. Conversations with Dada Vaswani is a spiritual biography and a journey; it is also dialogue between the Sage and the seeker...

Book excerpt: "It is better to be aflame for an instant, rather than smoke away for ages!" This is the injunction given by a brave mother to her defeated warrior son in the ancient epic, the Mahabharata. It is indeed an exhortation to all of us, defeated souls, to live life as it ought to be lived, to be fired by the highest ideals and values which make our lives truly meaningful. Life may be short, but it need not be small! How can we live such a life? How can we light up the brilliant flame of true living? Dada J P Vaswani shows us the way of inspiration. He tells us to read about the lives of the saints, the great ones of East and West who came to bless all people of all faiths. Even if we are able to imbibe one ideal from one of them and translate it into deeds of daily living, our lives will not be in vain. In this book he tells us about saints, ancient and contemporary, whom he reveres. Here we get to know about the saints from Dada's own unique and loving perspective. He tells us about Vishwamitra and St Francis; Meher Baba and Ba'al Shem Tov; Bhakta Tuladhar and Narsi Mehta.

Also featured are charming stories of Hindu gods and goddesses in love, and nineteenth-century retellings of folk tales from different regions of the country like Kashmir, Punjab, Maharashtra and Rajasthan. Both passionate and sensuous in its content, this book is sure to appeal to the romantic in all of us.
Download or read book Faith Movements and Social Transformation written by Samta P. Pandya and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-12-11 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the role of Hindu-inspired faith movements (HIFMs) in contemporary India as actors in social transformation. It further situates these movements in the context of the global political economy where such movements cross national boundaries to locate believers among the Hindu diaspora and others. In contemporary neoliberal India, HIFMs have become important actors, and they realize themselves by making public assertions through service. The four pillars of the contemporary presence of such movements are: gurus, sociality, hegemony and social transformation. Gurus, who spearhead these movements, create a matrix of possible meanings in their public discourses which their followers pick up to create messages of personal and social change. Sociality is a core strategy of proliferation across such movements and implies social service, which is qualified by memories of the guru and what they are believed to embody. Hegemony is reflected in the fact that social service in such movements often ominously imbibes right-wing or far-right Hinduism. They propose a model of Hindu-inspired social transformation, involving faith building into and transforming the civil society. The book discusses in a nuanced way several Hindu-inspired faith movements of various hues which have made national and international impact. This topical book is of interest to students and researchers in the fields of sociology, anthropology, social work, and social psychology, with a special interest in the study of religious movements.

This collection of stories tells of the ruler's fabled encounter with a vetala, a genie who inhabits the body of a corpse. The emperor begs the spirit for his help against a mighty necromancer and is told in return twenty-four tales, each of which presents a situation he might face as a king and culminates in a riddle that he must solve. With each answer, Vikramaditya displays his deep wisdom, proving himself to be the ideal monarch and winning, in the twenty-fifth tale, the guidance he needs from the vetala to destroy his powerful enemy. Written down in medieval times but inspired by an oral tradition stretching back centuries, these wise and witty tales rank amongst the great masterpieces of Sanskrit literature.
