Half Of Forever
We spend our lives searching for forever believing it must arrive whole and uninterrupted . . . But what if forever is not measured in time, but in depth? What if forever is not always something we arrive at, but something we get to touch? A few chance meetings draw Ravin and Heer into each other’s orbits. What begins as an unplanned crossing of lives slowly grows into something neither of them intended. However, they must now decide what the future holds for them―because love, this time, comes at a heavy cost. Half of Forever is a reflection on the kind of love that alters the shape of a life by simply being felt. It also brings Ravin’s love trilogy to a quiet close, following I Too Had a Love Story and Can Love Happen Twice?―three journeys, one evolving heart.

Discipline Is Destiny
A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER 'Ryan Holiday is a genius' Chris Evans '[He] translates Stoicism ... into pithy catchphrases and digestible anecdotes for ambitious, twenty-first-century life hackers' New York Times The inscription on the Oracle of Delphi says: 'Nothing in excess.' C.S. Lewis described temperance as going to the 'right length but no further.' Easy to say, hard to practice - and if it was tough in 300 BC, or in the 1940s, it feels all but impossible today. Yet it's the most empowering and important virtue any of us can learn. Without self-discipline, all our plans fall apart. Here, Ryan Holiday shows how to cultivate willpower, moderation and self-control in our lives. From Aristotle and Marcus Aurelius, to Toni Morrison and Queen Elizabeth II, he illuminates the great exemplars of its practice and what we can learn from them. Moderation is not about abstinence: it is about self-respect, focus and balance. Without it, even the most positive traits become vices. But with it, happiness and success are assured: the key is not more but finding the right amount.

If Truth Be Told: A Monk's Memoir
If Truth Be Told is a memoir of Om Swami’s extraordinary pursuit to understand spirituality and find God. As an eight-year-old boy he dreamt of God and this experience left him filled with exhilaration and deep peace. Thus began his quest to meet the Divine power, for which he delved in the science of astrology, tantra and extreme meditation, with no success. Agitated and emotionally frustrated he decided to dive into the materialistic world, head first. As an 18 year old, Om Swami left for Australia to distract himself of the spiritual pandemonium. After two years of dedicated hard work, he was earning $250,000 annually and by the age of 26 he was a multimillionaire. Living the idyllic good life as quoted by the modern tainted society was never his goal and when his inner commotion could no longer be overlooked he left all worldly pleasures and left for Himalayas. Living the life of a monk in the solitude of Himalayas, Om Swami practiced meditation and fought against the fierce environment, wild animals and starvation. In the lap of Himalayas and the intense solitude he found the answer that he sought after, ‘I am what I have been seeking’. Through this book, readers can experience the spiritual journey of this monk who broke all preconceived notions of the world to search for spiritual bliss.

Hindutva For Gen Z
Since 2014, Hindutva has dominated public discourse—across social media, mainstream platforms, and voices ranging from celebrities to politicians. Yet, despite its ubiquity, its meaning and purpose remain widely misunderstood. Interpretations vary sharply: to some, it represents a supremacist ideology; to others, it is a way of life. Caught between these competing narratives is a generation of young people still searching for clarity. Hindutva for Gen Z seeks to bridge this gap. Through clear arguments, relevant citations, and thoughtful analyses, the book offers a concise exploration of Hindutva—its origins, intent, and the debates surrounding it—while addressing and challenging common criticisms. Structured as a collection of essays, the book engages with both ground-level issues—such as temple restoration, place-name changes, and temple taxation—and broader ideological questions, including the nature of Hindutva, the distinction between secularism and pluralism, and the tension between swadeshi and globalization. It also delves into historical perspectives, examining the evolution of Hindutva, Hindu contributions to technological advancement, and the complexities of the caste system. Written in an accessible and relatable style, this book is an ambitious attempt to introduce Gen Z readers to key political, social, and cultural ideas—presented with both clarity and depth.

S.N. Malik: An Autobiography
S.N. Malik's Autobiography is a glorious account of his fascinating life and career. Filled with anecdotes from his idyllic childhood, his growing years, his career, and his personal life, this memoir offers many nuggets of wisdom as we follow his journey. He recounts his beautiful childhood rudely disrupted by the 1947 Partition that led his family's escape to India from his beloved Sheikhupura, which turned into a hellhole following the tragic massacre of 22,000 residents, with just three pieces of clothing; then goes on to describe his educational journey through difficult times as his family struggles to find its moorings in unfamiliar lands and their eventual rehabilitation. Mr Malik offers readers a glimpse into his rich 25-year corporate career as he narrates his experiences of wading through the wonderland of Licence-Permit Raj and the Emergency that blocked the nation's progress and how people worked around the system to get anything done. It is inspiring to read how he successfully managed during these times by sticking to his principles of honesty, integrity, and commitment-values he carried to the public sector, where he headed some of the largest PSUs. He did not compromise on defending his values, even at the risk of losing his high-profile job and its perks, and continued to take his companies to new heights. Mr Malik makes valuable observations about the true role of a business enterprise, the missed opportunity to reform the public sector, the future of the public and private sectors, and the need to make our society a little less unequal to ensure national stability. The poignant saga of his personal life is a heart-warming read where the reader is introduced to many fascinating characters and delightful tales along the way.
