Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is no motive without a reason. Just like a coin has two sides, every word’s meaning has its own understanding. To the best of my ability and in order to put forth an important ideology across, I have managed to analyze and interpret certain happenings with different interpretations and connotations. We know that several rivers and numerous waterfalls merge into the sea, but where are these diverse set of characters and small stories travelling towards? Will they all meet at the point of destruction or creation? Nowadays, with almost everything coming under the radar, what if there is a significant something which has still managed to escaped this, trying to take over creation? It is the destructive poison Halahal, which is extremely powerful, and even the Devas and Demons hide themselves in fear! What if this poison is about to devastate the earth? This full-fledged war is between the forces of the endless energy on one side and an army of absolute supremacy on the other – and the self-centered citizens of the world helplessly watch whatever is happening. Who will win this war? Everyone needs a saviour now just like Neelkant, who will come to protect the people? This is what Aalakaalan is about

Download or read book A Pinch of HOPE in a Bowl of LIFE written by Veena Sethuraman and published by Leadstart Publishing Pvt Ltd. This book was released on 1901 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Love has many forms. Every seeker may have their own journey towards it, each one filled with its own set of obstacles and life lessons. For Gayathri, a chance encounter with a Gynaecologic Oncologist reminds her of her own belief in a soulmate and helps her embrace self-love. For Charanjeet, love is about getting over his helplessness and working to strengthen his marriage, building his family. Joseph had to first encounter himself, deal with his own anger and shame to find his expression, before he could accept someone’s love. Ranganayaki’s journey is that of learning to stand up for herself in an unsupportive environment and yet viewing the world through the lens of humour along with her strong faith on her ‘Ranga’. Suraiya had to allow the churning in her to realize that self-care is not selfish, while facing up to her disappointing marriage and walking out of it. They say Love Conquers All; here are stories of a few common people who had to break the shackles – sometimes of traditions, sometimes of societal norms and at times even their own expectations to reach their destinations. As they conquered, they embodied HOPE. After all, LOVE is the source of HOPE.

Download or read book Jules Verne Omnibus Translated and Illustrated written by Jules Verne and published by . This book was released on 2017-11-27 with total page 546 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jules Verne has been acknowledged --for 150 years-- as one of the founders of the science fiction story telling genre; but, curiously enough, over a century ago readers knew him as the most popular writer of a kind of literature cataloged under the name of Travel Novel; the purpose of those who cultivated the genre was as much to teach as to entertain. However, Jules Verne went beyond the Travel Novel and became the most accredited representative of the Scientific Novel, which he further developed into the Science Fiction Novel. It would be pointless to ask Jules Verne if he brought science into the context of the novel or simply introduced the novel in the field of science; his enthusiasm led him from one genre to the other and his creativity, his fertility, did the rest. Jules Verne was the first, at least in France, to use the marvelous scientist as main character; an element of his story-telling that especially established his enormous success.Five Weeks in a Balloon launched Jules Verne in 1863 into a famous and well-respected career, writing prescient literature loved worldwide. This journey of discovery in Africa by three Englishmen --Doctor Ferguson, his friend Kennedy and his valet Joe-- who undertake the crossing of the African Continent in a balloon. The reader learns the geography of Africa and the history of its main explorers and follows, along the way, a course of aerostation. Journey to the Center of the Earth is Jules Verne''s most popular work --a tale of adventures inside planet Earth, written in 1864. The novel deals with the discovery of an ancient runic manuscript by a German scholar who, with his nephew and a guide, undertakes a journey to the center of the earth by entering through an extinct Icelandic volcano, the Sn�fellsj�kull; it is a clever mix of scientific data, daring extrapolations and adventures very representative of what Verne later published. Professor Lidenbrock is bigger than life with his unlimited devotion to science and his ethics, but also by his ridiculous antics. The novel is not just an imaginary trip toward the Earth''s core; it is also a journey in paleontology that takes the reader through the various epochs of our planet''s formation. The possibility of a subterranean sea similar to the Lidenbrock Sea has been for a long time refuted by geological scientists; however, in 2016, researchers from Florida State University and the University of Edinburgh estimated that water existed far deeper in the Earth than previously thought. Although the exact amount of water is unknown, researchers believe it could account for as much as 1.5 percent of the weight of the planet --the same amount of water as all the world''s oceans put together. I don''t know if this body of water has yet been given a name; but may I suggest Lidenbrock Sea.Around the World in 80 Days is Jules Verne''s masterpiece: The first three chapters alone would make a fine short story. The book is an absolute joy to read, beautifully written with thrilling adventures, brief historical background notes concerning a given place and time, subtle humor and --Romance. Jean Passepartout, a young Frenchman, muscular and of herculean strength, has practiced such disparate trades as street singer, circus acrobat, gymnastics teacher, and fireman sergeant in Paris; but he is tired of that existence. After leaving behind the Jack-of-all-trade lifestyle of his youth, we find him in London, trying out the more peaceful trade of valet. Passepartout is delighted to find Phileas Fogg, the perfect sedentary English gentlemen. He gladly foresees a future of pure blissful quietude as valet in the house on Saville Row; but his dream of blissful tranquility is cut short, for the very day he is hired, Phileas Fogg, contrary to his calm, collected, sedentary nature, decides to take up the challenge of traveling around the world in eighty days! And right there and then, our young Frenchman is embarked on a race against time around the planet. Enjoy!

Download or read book The Cage written by Gordon Weiss and published by Bellevue Literary Press. This book was released on 2012-09-04 with total page 602 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Cage is a tightly written and clear-eyed narrative about one of the most disturbing human dramas of recent years. . . . A riveting, cautionary tale about the consequences of unchecked political power in a country at war. A must-read." —Jon Lee Anderson, New Yorker staff writer and author of The Fall of Baghdad In the closing days of the thirty-year Sri Lankan civil war, tens of thousands of civilians were killed, according to United Nations estimates, as government forces hemmed in the last remaining Tamil Tiger rebels on a tiny sand spit, dubbed "The Cage." Gordon Weiss, a journalist and UN spokesperson in Sri Lanka during the final years of the war, pulls back the curtain of government misinformation to tell the full story for the first time. Tracing the role of foreign influence as it converged with a history of radical Buddhism and ethnic conflict, The Cage is a harrowing portrait of an island paradise torn apart by war and the root causes and catastrophic consequences of a revolutionary uprising caught in the crossfire of international power jockeying. Gordon Weiss has lived in New York and worked in numerous conflict and natural disaster zones including the Congo, Uganda, Darfur, Bosnia, Afghanistan, Syria, and Haiti. Employed by the United Nations for over two decades, he continues to consult on war, extremism, peace building, and human rights.

Download or read book Historical Dictionary of the Tamils written by Vijaya Ramaswamy and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2017-08-25 with total page 519 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Tamils have an unbroken history of more than two thousand years. Tamil, the language they speak, is one of the oldest living languages in the world. The only people comparable to the Tamils in terms of their hoary past and vibrant present would be the Jews with one marked difference. The Tamils have always had their homeland 'Tamilaham' (alternately pronounced and spelt 'Tamizhaham') known today as Tamil Nadu which to them represents their mother and is revered by them as 'Tamizh Tai' literally ‘Tamil Mother’. This is in striking contrast to the Jews who have been through a long and arduous struggle to gain their homeland, a deeply contested site to this day with Hebrewisation of Israel being a key marker of Jewish identity in the region. Tamils, by contrast have a clear numerical majority in the region that now comprises Tamil Nadu and the language unites rather than divides adherents of different faiths. The second edition of Historical Dictionary of the Tamils contains a chronology, an introduction, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has over 600 cross-referenced entries on important personalities, politics, economy, foreign relations, religion, and culture. This book is an excellent resource for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about the Tamils.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When an apple falls, does it roll far or stay close to its tree? Is it an exact clone of all the other apples the tree produces or something entirely different? This is the question that has perplexed the public about Marina for the simple reason that she is the daughter of the man who has governed Malaysia for almost twenty-four years. Does she echo him in his view of the world, or does she chart her own path? Why is it that in her own public life, in her writing and speeches, she expresses opinions that seem to contradict his? This book hopes to detail how she has navigated her life as the daughter of a charismatic politician and a loving father, even as sometimes she has chafed at being constantly under his shadow. It talks about how she has struggled to find her own identity, to defend her worldview at times and to reconcile them with his at others. She tells the story of growing up as the daughter of Malaysia's most influential leader, from the values instilled in her as a child, right up to the day he was forced to step down as the 7th Prime Minister after leading the historic ouster of the government he used to lead.
