“Serenity of thoughts” is one of the best books I have read.

This book walks us through the issues world is facing right now and how as an individual or as a part of the community we can contribute or adjust our lifestyle and our ideologies for a better and sustainable future.

The book points us in a direction of actual “wellness” rather than merely chasing for material things or conventional joys of life.

This is a book where the reader will be able to think, understand, and search for excellence and enlightened life.

A Must-Read book

The Dialectic of Enlightenment, the Debate Continues.

This book "Serenity of Thought" addresses the issue of the "dialectic of enlightenment". This is a philosophical problem which many philosophers, including Marx, have tried to tackle. Modernity brings material progress and conveniences, but at the cost of environment, community, ethics and a wholesome life. So the problem is, how do we retain the best of what is in modernity without sacrificing some of the goodness of our pre-modern past. The author, I think, believes that India, since it has always retained something of its traditions, is best located to tackle the dialectic of enlightenment.

This is a thought provoking book. For the persistent reader, it offers many rewards.
