Modern life is very competitive and stressful; only a thoughtful few want to rid themselves of constant worries and find a way to live a life of real happiness. Teachings of Sri Sivabala Yogi contained in Laghu Guru Upanishad are especially relevant for such people. There are many grades of aspirants; some just want to lead a peaceful life, some want a lower type of salvation and a few blessed ones who desire total freedom by realising their true natures. Ultimate liberation is attained only if one knows the absolute Self (or Reality or God). No matter what one's goal is, the Guru's teaching given in Laghu Guru Upanishad, if practised sincerely, offers hope to everyone to attain one's desired end. The book is set out in question and answer format. The questions, asked by Gurprasad, have been framed from an aspirant's point of view. Questions and doubts like these arise in the minds of all those who want to follow a spiritual path. The Guru has given answers that are suitable for ease of understanding by beginners as well as more advanced aspirants. In doing so, the Guru has adopted a rational approach suited to the modern generation and covers all well-known paths to realise the Truth. Sri Sivabala Yogi's basic teaching deals with control of mind and it does not advocate any religious beliefs. Mind is the cause of one's suffering and unhappiness and it also has the power to get rid of them. Bookish knowledge is of no avail unless it is practised. Every reader of this book can attain his or her desired spiritual object, provided its teaching is put into effect through earnest effort.

The Indian Righteousness is about theoretical patterns of the way Indians define righteousness in their family and social life, politics, democracy, development issues and rationality in present times. Literary and intellectual in style, it is an exposé of Indian society in post-liberalization and post-globalization times, locating the way Indians address ethical conflicts, including the fever in current times. By attempting to overcome the anxiety of right and wrong, it says that the context-sensitive way of deciding right and wrong, which is the broad tone of flexible Indian ethics, is not certainly adequate to explain the many behaviours of righteousness noticed in modern times, and so the author advocates for new social doctrines to explain satisfactorily many issues of conflicts in morality. Though theoretical in style, the author takes too a position of praxis by enriching many understandings through discovery of delicate social, political patterns reflected in interesting artistic illustrations in the book and expressed on top of every chapter. An interesting book for Indians in face of conflicting positions of action in society, it may be useful for others having inclination to understand Indian society and for some issues ,which are universal like development philosophy, rationality, spirituality, and democracy though analyzed in Indian situations.

"Sometimes all it takes to change everything you thought true is a single sentence by a single person." And sometimes it takes three. All Danielle Hayes ever wanted was a normal, boring life, full of monotonous repetitions, but three statements destroyed all chances of her wish ever coming true- 1) "Don't call me 'Daddy', I'm not your father." 2) "I am Daniel Hayes, your brother." 3) "I'm a Lamia, dear, a witch. Dan's one too, as are you!" Read on as the saga commences and Danielle begins the journey to find her roots and discover who she really is while coming to terms with magic, family and above all, the feeling of home in the midst of increased revelations of mysteries which supposedly have no explanations.

Athri was fortunate to attend a five day workshop on NLP by one of the founders of NLP, Mr. Richard Bandler. That was the decisive moment when Athri got obsessed with training. His background from 1967 to 1997, as a Medical Representative, Field Manager and Area Manager, gave him just the right climate and atmosphere for training. In this MNC Pharma Company in which he worked, (John Wyeth and brother limited) the emphasis and practice of training was practically a day and night affair. The area managers go to the HO (Bombay) every month and literally mug up word to word detail, the specific technical words, the sequence of the sentences, the display of the folder, the eye contact, the closing with pointed statements in order to get assurance of prescription from the doctor, was all practice so thoroughly that this extremely content and process specific detail is ground very thoroughly at the field managers meetings and then on to the medical representatives meeting. This cyclic intensive training literally got into Athri's psyche. Soft Skills Initiatives is a natural evolution as far as Athri is concerned. Before Pharma experience Athri had the privilege of working in Avery India Madras. He worked as GM in 3 auto dealerships (Daewoo, Hyundai, and Tata Motors). He moved to ICFAI as Consultant trainer (soft skills). He worked as Marketing Manger in SD Pharmacy and GM in two Pan India Training Companies. He also worked as Marketing Manager (Overseas customers) and growing software developer and for a short while for ICICI home Loans. This rich and varied experience helped him establish himself as a note worthy and successful trainer all over South India. The title of the booklet wants to convey to the reader.
