Soft cover. Zustand: New. 1st Edition. From the Preface: This novel is the English translation of Eeshaan Mahesh's spiritual novel 'Jana tha Ganga paar'. The novel was originally written in Hindi. The story of this novel is based on the notable legendary episode of Lord Rama and Kevata, the boatman. The sequence of the story says that Lord Rama along with his wife, Sita and his younger brother, Lakshamana were proceeding towards the forests to fulfill their vow of banishment. There, to cross the river Ganges, they happened to board a boat of a boatman named Kevata. His exceptional character made the whole episode dramatic and mysterious. When after crossing the river, Lord Rama asked the boatman about the fare that has to be paid for the ride, Kevata, the boatman, simply asks Rama to do the same when he, after his death comes to Rama's Ghat, the final doorstep, then he must take him across that. This novel has peeped into the mystery of the statement given by Kevata. How could he recognize the fact that Rama was the incarnation of the ultimate; though many sages of that time only recognized Rama as a loyal Prince of King of Ayodhya. Only the seven divine sages considered Rama as incarnation of God. …

Hardcover. Zustand: New. 1st Edition. India's relations with both Japan and ASEAN have been growing rapidly as a result of New Delhi's "Act-East Policy". The Northeast Indian states are beginning to court foreign investment as seen in the maiden Global Investors' Summit in Guwahati, Assam earlier in February last year. In February 2018, the government of Assam inked an agreement with the National Building Construction Corporation (NBCC) to construct a 65-storey Twin Towers, in Guwahati, Assam which is being touted as the hub of India's engagement efforts with the ASEAN countries as a part of its "Act-East Policy". At the inauguration of India's longest bridge over the Lohit river in Assam (on the third anniversary of his swearing in as the Prime Minister on May 26, 2017), PM Modi noted that "the eastern and north-eastern parts of the country have the greatest potential for economic development, and this bridge is just one element of the Union Government's vision in this regard." The development of Northeast India will also be in keeping with the present government's strategy of "Neighbourhood First" as Bhutan and Nepal were the first two countries, which PM Modi visited after taking over as the PM. In addition, PM Modi had invited the Heads of State of all the SAARC countries to his inauguration. However, although the total trade between India and ASEAN stood at US$58.4 billion in 2016, Northeast India only accounts for a miniscule portion of it in spite of this geographical contiguity. On the other hand, in another worrying development-India made up only 2.6 per cent of ASEAN's total external trade in 2016. In order to bring up development levels in Northeast India to levels in other parts of the country, cooperation with ASEAN and Japan is sine-qua-non. Only this will ensure that the Northeastern part of India will be able to overcome the tyranny of geography.…

Hardcover. Zustand: New. When this noveI "The Mystery of Krishna" was being written, during that whole period I felt that I had become a flute. I experienced the soul of becoming a hollow bamboo in a divine form. I saw that the music that was coming out of it was coming and passing through me; but I know very well that the life-force flowing in it is not mine. The lips on which this flute is placed, the fingers dancing on its holes and the utterance of words are all inspired by the cosmic energy of Krishna. The music of this novel enchanted my soul. Everything of Lord Krishna is charming; yet mysterious. I am grateful to Him that he chose me to sing this song of eternal love and friendship. --- Eeshaan Mahesh.…
