In the world of Gilded Spirits, the boundaries between work and life are not all that are blurring . . . When Georgia-born Emily Jones joins a mining party heading West with the Gold Rush of 1849, she dreams not merely of wealth, but of personal freedom. With her lively wit and her love, Jonah, by her side, the future seems to glitter--until fate delivers her, scarred though still holding fast to hope, to San Francisco. Nearly two centuries later, Meera, a factory worker from small-town India, emerges from a mental health crisis to pursue a new future in California--a decision that leads her to her soulmate, Rahul, and the start of a family of her own. To make ends meet, Meera accepts a position at Silicon Valley's tech conglomerate WC Terra--only to discover an allegiance-based, profit-fixated culture that rains abuses upon employees and consumers alike. As Meera finds herself unraveling under stress and isolation, it seems that not even her irreverent wit, her numbers-savvy mind, or her family's love can shield her in her efforts to address the corruption all around her. Yet behind the veil of spirits, a cosmic intelligence has borne witness to each woman's journey, and it knows that Meera cannot take on her burdens alone. But before moving forward, Meera will first have to accept that the boundaries of reality are far thinner than she ever imagined--and that she really does have the power to change the world

जिस व्यक्ति को ध्यान साधना हो उसे मरना सीखना होता है। मरते सारे लोग हैं, लेकिन सीख कर बहुत कम लोग मरते हैं। और जो मरने को सीख लेते हैं, अदभुत होता है, उन्हें घटना घटती है। जो मरने को सीख लेते हैं, फिर मृत्यु उनकी नहीं होती। जो अपने हाथ से मृत्यु को सीख लेता है, वह जान जाता है कि उसके भीतर कोई तत्व है जिसकी कोई मृत्यु नहीं है। और जो अपने हाथ से मृत्यु को नहीं साधता, उसे मृत्यु बार-बार घटित होती है और अमृत से वह परिचित नहीं हो पाता।ओशोपुस्तक के कुछ मुख्य विषय-बिंदुः* अंतर्दृष्टि की पतवार का क्या अर्थ है? * ध्यान क्या है?* जीवन-परिवर्तन के सूत्र* मनुष्य आनंद को कैसे खोजे?

The partition of India and Pakistan was a significant tragedy in South Asian history. Despite the passing of years, the mental scars remain, even in the minds of the new generation who were not directly involved. Much has been written on the division, yet many stories and characters remain hidden within its vast history. One such character is Amrit Kaur, whose story is presented as a novel in this book.
Amrit Kalash: Greatest Tales from Indian Mythology
When we think of ancient Indian literature, especially mythological literature, the mind often conjures images of gods, demons, miracles, and divine interventions-a universe steeped in mysticism. But to reduce it to just that is to miss its essence entirely. Ancient Indian texts offer profound insights into the human condition. These works are not just repositories of religious thought; they are mirrors to society, chronicling caste, politics, love, grief, dharma, ambition, jealousy, and the burden of choice. They resonate with the very real, very human struggles we still face today. Amrit Kalash seeks to make stories from these texts more accessible to the modern reader. The stories have been fictionalized to make them more engaging, without taking away their originality or the 'true essence' of their spirit. The purpose of retelling these immortal stories is to give readers a snapshot of the beautiful world of ancient Indian literature and inspire them to explore further into this unfathomable ocean.

As she builds her own life anew, an Italian writer embarks on an all-consuming search for the true story of the mysterious princess H. H. Amrit Kaur of Mandi. On a sweltering day in 2007, having just lost her brother to illness, Livia Manera Sambuy finds herself at a museum in Mumbai, enthralled by a 1924 photograph of a stunningly elegant Indian princess. What she reads in the picture's caption will change her life forever. This alluring Punjabi royal had supposedly sold her jewels in occupied wartime Paris to save Jewish lives, only to be arrested by the Gestapo and sent to a concentration camp, where she died within a year. Could it be true? And if so, how could such a sensational story have gone unreported? Almost against her will, Manera becomes drawn into the mystery of Amrit Kaur. Delving into the history of the British Raj, its durbars and society balls and jubilees, she shows us the precipitous decline of India's royal caste through the lives of extraordinary figures such as Amrit's father, the larger-than-life Maharaja Jagatjit Singh of Kapurthala; the Jewish banker Albert Kahn; and the Russian explorer Nicholas Roerich--all while pursuing the elusive Amrit Kaur's story. When she meets with the princess's eighty-year-old daughter, Manera's search takes on a new dimension, as she strives to reintroduce an orphan to a mother who disappeared in 1933, leaving behind two children, her raja husband, and a legacy of activism in India's nascent women's civil rights movement. In Search of Amrit Kaur is an engrossing detective story, a kaleidoscopic history lesson, and a moving portrait of a woman seeking personal freedom against the backdrop of a world in upheaval.
