The Lord of the Mountains himself recited to his dear consort that great mystery known as the Adhyatma Ramayana which is great amongst the Puranas. He who reads with devotion even a shloka or half a shloka of the Adhyatma Ramayana, is purified of all sins that very moment.

He who daily recites reverently the Adhyatma Ramayana with a mind directed to no other object, is daid to be Jivan Mukta (emancipated in this very life). One who casually listens to the Adhyatma Ramayana from another without showing reverence, even he is freed from sin.

He who bows to the Adhyatma Ramayana, having approached (less)

Glossary of Urdu words in Roman script. "Faiz Ahmed Faiz (1911-1984) was one of the leading, if not the foremost, poet of the Indian subcontinent during the greater part of the last century.

Listed four times for the Nobel prize of poetry, he was often compared to his friend Pablo Neruda, revolutionary poet and Nobel prize winner, of Chile. Of Faiz’s multifaceted personality, which led him to become, amongst other things, an activist for human rights and liberties, a famous journalist and editor of literary magazines (Urdu and others), trade unionist, and film song writer, it is his poetry which will, not doubt, best survive the test of time.

His very first volume of poetry, published in 1941 from Lucknow, brought him instant celebrity. "Naqsh-e-Faryadi" or "imprints" has since (less)

"Tulasidas's Ramcharitmanas enjoys the place of pride among the hundreds of epics narrating the Tale of Lord Ram not only in Indian languages but also in several languages of South-East Asia. It is venerated not only by Ram's ardent devotees but also learned scholars who admire it for its poetic beauty and ethical import.

For a long time the need was being felt for an abridged version of Ramcharitmanas for a growing section of the present-day reader, both in India and abroad, characterised by preference for English language and shortage of time. This volume amply fulfils that need.

Being based on a tried and tested abridged edition in Hindi, namely Manas Mangal, it presents the gist of the original Ramcharitmanas. The success of The Spirit of Ramcharitmanas lies in the prudent (less)

Guru Gobind Singh. "There is one God.

He is the Supreme Truth." This is the central belief, the mool mantra, of the Sikh religion, founded in Punjab by Guru Nanak (1469-1539), who drew upon the teachings of Muslim Sufis and Hindu Bhaktas.

The common basic factor of the Sikh community is belief in the ten Gurus and the authorized version of the Guru Granth Sahib, the holy scripture. In its purest form, Sikhism is about unity, simplicity, equality and surrender (to God), and the verses of the Gurus—most of them included in the Granth Sahib—articulate this beautifully.

This volume contains a selection of verses by seven of the ten Gurus, culled from the Guru Granth Sahib and other sacred texts like Guru Tegh Bahadur’s Vairagmayi Bani and the Dasam (less)
