Download or read book The Great Work of Your Life written by Stephen Cope and published by Bantam. This book was released on 2012-09-25 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An inspiring guide to finding your life’s purpose—what spiritual teachers call dharma—through mindfulness and self-exploration. Stephen Cope says that in order to have a fulfilling life you must discover the deep purpose hidden at the very core of your self. The secret to unlocking this mystery, he asserts, can be found in the pages of a two-thousand-year-old spiritual classic called the Bhagavad Gita—an ancient allegory about the path to dharma, told through a timeless dialogue between the fabled archer, Arjuna, and his divine mentor, Krishna. Cope takes readers on a step-by-step tour of this revered tale and highlights well-known Western lives that embody its central principles—including such luminaries as Jane Goodall, Walt Whitman, Susan B. Anthony, John Keats, and Harriet Tubman, along with stories of ordinary people as well. If you’re feeling lost in your own life’s journey, The Great Work of Your Life may help you to find and to embrace your true calling.

Download or read book Sustainable India Towards 2075 Roadmap for harmonious living in 150 blue green cities written by Palash Tayal and published by Clever Fox Publishing. This book was released on with total page 580 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Embark on a journey into the future with "Sustainable India," a revolutionary blueprint that charts the course for India's transformation into a sustainable superpower in 50 years. In this pioneering work, the author unveils a novel strategy that places sustainability at the forefront of India's national objectives, ultimately leading to the creation of the world's first sustainable economy and ecosystem. Central to the book's proposal is the establishment of 130-150 equal high-rise, mixed-use blue-green cities as the linchpin of India's sustainability journey. The move enables large scale natural farming (~100 Mha), dense forests over 55% of land area and an extensive network of rivers, lakes, and canals. It also triggers a reversal to natural products, materials, and supply chains while nurturing a culture of minimalism. Simultaneously, it lays the foundation for a green transportation system and revitalization of the countryside. As India urbanizes, the book envisions a systematic dissemination of family planning, progressive asset ownership, minimum wages, healthy work policies, and social security. The book provides detailed strategies and transformation plans for each sector within industrials, manufacturing and services. By reorienting towards sustainability, the author demonstrates how production requirements can be minimized, domestic enterprises can gain a competitive edge, and the power of the people can be harnessed. Furthermore, "Sustainable India" illuminates the path towards a future with sustainable energy balance. The transformation is meticulously outlined in four phases, detailing government investments, industrial consolidation and expansion, infrastructure development and relocation, changes in trade, employment and wages. Based on the bottom up interlinked country model, India emerges as an independent economy with a real GDP of ~$28 trillion (2020 prices) by 2075. A high quality of life becomes a reality for every citizen, and India stands in perfect harmony with its environment. The book presents the World’s First Comprehensive and Empirical Model of Sustainability, defining the frontier of human knowledge & capabilities, altruism, health & environmental consciousness. The model has been developed using leading research, data and methodologies.

Download or read book Truck de India written by Rajat Ubhaykar and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2019-10-22 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The share auto I squeeze into next seems unusually vulnerable after a night in the truck - too compact, too low down. Perhaps, these are the usual side effects of prolonged riding with the king of the road, I think to myself. But it is only when I fill in ‘truck’ as my mode of transportation in the hotel ledger at Udaipur does the utter ludicrousness of my endeavour truly hit home" Think truck drivers, and movie scenes of them drunkenly crushing inconvenient people to their gravelly deaths come to mind. But what are their lives on the road actually like? In Truck De India!, journalist Rajat Ubhaykar embarks on a 10,000 km-long, 100% unplanned trip, hitchhiking with truckers all across India. On the way, he makes unexpected friendships; listens to highway ghost stories; discovers the near-fatal consequences of overloading trucks; documents the fascinating tradition of truck art in Punjab; travels alongside nomadic shepherds in Kashmir; encounters endemic corruption repeatedly; survives NH39, the insurgent-ridden highway through Nagaland and Manipur; and is unfailingly greeted by the unconditional kindness of perfect strangers. Imbued with humour, empathy, and a keen sense of history, Truck De India! is a travelogue like no other you've read. It is the story of India, and Indians, on the road.
Download or read book India s Living Constitution written by Zoya Hasan and published by Anthem Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: India became independent in 1947 and, after nearly three years of debate in the Constituent Assembly, adopted a Constitution that came into effect on 26 January 1950. This Constitution has lasted until the present, with its basic structure unaltered, a remarkable achievement given that the generally accepted prerequisites for democratic stability did not exist, and do not exist even today. Half a century of constitutional democracy is something that political scientists and legal scholars need to analyze and explain. This volume examines the career of constitutional-political ideas (implicitly of Western origin) in the text of the Indian Constitution or implicit within it, as well as in actual political practice in the country over the past half-century.
Download or read book Living Brand India written by Dr. Sushant Sharma and published by Author's Ink Publications. This book was released on 2023-03-16 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world is expecting India to lead it in near future, but does India have a noose to bind the world together? Just as our heritage and culture helped him and many other NRIs run successful businesses, he has found a path which can be adopted for individual success and through which India can become the ‘Modern Golden Bird.' Dr. (Vaidya) Santosh Sharma hails from a tiny village in the rejuvenating mountainous state of Himachal Pradesh, India. While living in Kalka, he pursued his studies and gained his initial life experiences in Chandigarh, and as society demanded, he started working late 20th century at a nearby private firm. In 1997, at the age of 38, his soul forced him to break the traditional norms and make a landmark decision to shift his base to Europe along with his family. There on, he started the tough journey of rediscovering and sharing the story of India, and its heritage and culture with Eastern Europe by opening a small Indian shop, Szep Kis India (Little Beautiful India) with his wife, Mrs. Kamlesh Sharma, in Budapest. Today, Szep Kis India is the oldest and biggest Indian store in Hungary and even offers exotic products from other countries. Dr. Sushant Sharma is a young medical doctor who hails from the rolling hills of the lesser Himalayas. His passion for writing led to the creation of the psychological crime thriller, Projekt Nowhere , published with Garuda Prakashan. With his love for India, its heritage and culture, and to propagate the same among the young generation, he collaborated with Dr. (Vaidya) Santosh Sharma to pen down the exemplary story of an entrepreneur who built his business in Europe based on Indian roots.
Download or read book Prison Inmates Living with HIV in India written by Sayantani Guin and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-04-15 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Brief presents preliminary findings from research in three prisons in Maharashtra, India on experiences of prison inmates there living with HIV. The study explores health care services in these prisons, and problems experienced by inmates in India living with HIV, as well as their staff and caregivers. Through this preliminary study, the researchers shed light on the experiences of inmates in Indian prisons, with an aim of presenting questions for future research. The author provides an overview of the global conditions of prison inmates living with HIV, as an international comparative context for examining the cases in India. Major problems highlighted in the cases include: living conditions, high risk behavior during incarceration, delivery of medical services and adherence to ethical guidelines. Results of the study reveal that overcrowding and inadequate nutrition were major concerns for inmates living with HIV; there were no support systems available inside the prisons to address the stress related issues of the inmates; and, the prison hospital did not have provisions to cater to the treatment needs of inmates living with AIDS. The study also found that confidentiality regarding the HIV positive status could not be maintained inside the prison. This Brief presents a window into the experience of inmates in India, and presents questions for future research to understand and improve living conditions and medical service delivery within the prison system. This work will be of interest to researchers in criminology and criminal justice, particularly interested in incarceration or health issues, public health and related areas such as public policy, international studies, and demography studies in India.
