Description
'This is the most intelligent book ever written about Indian food. Not only does it include the finest recipes of a vanishing India, but it also displays a thoughtful understanding of the origins, ingredients and philosophy of our cuisine.'-VIR SANGHVI Editor, Sunday
'Camellia Panjabi is arguably India's foremost gourmet and food expert. Her profound knowledge will always be an inspiration to me. Her book is a culinary milestone.'PAT CHAPMAN Founder of The Curry Club.
'Very different from all previous Indian cookery books. Its author is the ultimate source of many of the recipes in the Indian cookery books with which we Western cooks are familiar…I shall be very surprised if your copy of this astonishing book is not very soon covered in gravy stains from repeated use-happy souvenirs of glorious meals cooked from it and eaten with abandon and relish.'PAUL LEVY
'Meticulous testing and appropriate adaptation means with this book you can prepare that hitherto elusive assembly: the authentic curry.'FAY MASCHLER

DESCRIPTION:
Great savants of astrology have enunciated various rules, theories & hypothesis about various permutation and combinations of planets in a native’s chart. The 12 houses represent the journey of a native from the cradle to the grave. No two natives (and their horoscopes) are identical, even the twins differ. Why & how it happens is to be understood & explained by an astrologer. The basic rule is to proceed from known to unknown to understand the highly complex treatises. This necessitates the availability of a large number of horoscopes on which the various tools of astrology can be tested & understood. The book provides this basic necessity of large number of keen students & research scholars of astrology. This book provides horoscopes of nine divine deities of different religions and 756 horoscopes of different natives of different times and of different nations. 415 natives out of them are alive as on date. To facilitate proper identification, the charts of natives are given in alphabetical order. To facilitate further, separate index have been given Lagna-wise and profession-wise. Total numbers of vocations have been identified as 27. Each horoscope gives longitudes in degree & minutes, birth details of the native, balance dasha at birth, date & mode of death where applicable & available and few important events of each native. The scholars can derive much more useful information from the data given in the book. It is expected that large astrological fraternity will welcome the book in its present form.
With Premchand's versatile writing skill, the stories took a valuable space in indian literature. This book is an integration of 41 stories by Premchand.

Mist fills the Himalayan valleys, and monsoon rain sweeps across the hills. Sometimes, during the day, a bird visits me-a deep purple whistling thrush. She perches on the window sill, and looks out with me at the rain.' This personal diary records the many small moments that constitute a life of harmony-with the self, the natural world, and friends, family and passersby. In these pages, we watch a wild plum blossom and the moon come up between two deodar trees; we hear a redstart whistle and the rain drum on a tin roof; we recognize the aftermath of loss and the consolation of old companions. "A Book of Simple Living" is a gift of beauty and wisdom from India's most loved, and most understated, writer..
