Warmth
Dear reader, If you have a heart, you will fall in love. And chances are, someone will end up breaking your heart. I wrote this book after someone broke mine. What do you do when the only person you’ve ever loved with your whole heart decides to leave your life? You keep trying to run away from the hurt, but to no avail. This book is a product of all the running I did from heartbreak. I feel everything too deeply, and when my heart broke, I collected all the broken pieces, and they fuelled my art. This book is everything I wrote after someone I loved left me. There’ s too much heartbreak in these pages, but also too much hope and, more than anything, a promise that life can’ t always hurt you. I hope healing finds its way to you soon. Love, Rithvik

Rishi Intelligence
Ravi Singh Choudhary has a natural gift for explaining things in a simple and crisp manner. A gift that is of crucial importance in bringing out the wisdom of Hindu Rishis. This wisdom has layers of space (geography) and time (antiquity). To separate this wisdom from wasteful speculations is not an easy task. Ravi has been successful in this endeavor because of his close connection with nature and his success in keeping himself away from the snobbery of puerile and clueless discussion of academia. Grab this book. Read it and re-read it. Apply it in your area of profession. Experience the effects first-hand. Nilesh Nilkanth Oak- Author, Speaker, Researcher, TEDx speaker, UAA-ICT Distinguished Alumnus, Who's Who in American Universities & Colleges, Scientific dating of Indian epics In our quest for Vishwaguru, it is insufficient to merely recount tales of being pioneers in numerous fields. Mere antiquity of our civilization does not automatically confer greatness upon it. True greatness should be rooted in fundamental principles, robust frameworks, progressive means of knowledge, and the quality of our institutions. Can we embark on cutting-edge research in Vedic science, resuming where we left off? It is time to shift our focus from lamenting the burning of books at Nalanda for a mere three months, and instead, channel our efforts towards preserving the remaining one crore manuscripts, not merely as relics of the past, but as living and vibrant subjects.
