‘गिरमिटिया’ अंग्रेज़ी के शब्द ‘एग्रीमेंट’ का बिगड़ा हुआ रूप है। यह वह एग्रीमेंट या ‘गिरमिट’ है जिसके तहत हज़ारों भारतीय मज़दूर आज से डेढ़ सौ साल पहले दक्षिण अफ्रीका में काम की तलाश में गये थे। एक अजनबी देश, जिसके लोग, भाषा, रहन-सहन, खान-पान एकदम अलग...और सारे दिन की कड़ी मेहनत के बाद न उनके पास कोई सुविधा, न कोई अधिकार। तभी इंग्लैण्ड से वकालत की पढ़ाई पूरी कर 1893 में मोहनदास करमचंद गांधी दक्षिण अफ्रीका पहुंचते हैं। रेलगाड़ी का टिकट होने के बावजूद उन्हें रेल के डिब्बे से सामान समेत बाहर निकाल फेंका जाता है। इस रंगभेद नीति के पहले अनुभव ने युवा गाँधी पर गहरी छाप छोड़ी। रंगभेद नीति की आड़ में दक्षिण अफ्रीका में काम कर रहे भारतीय मज़दूरों पर हो रहे अन्याय गाँधी को बर्दाश्त नहीं होते और वे उन्हें उनके अधिकार दिलाने के संघर्ष में पूरी तरह जुट जाते हैं। बंधुआ मज़दूरों के साथ अपनी एकता को प्रदर्शित करने के लिए अपने आप को ‘पहला गिरमिटिया’ कहते हैं। 19वीं और 20वीं सदी के दक्षिण अफ्रीका की सामाजिक, राजनीतिक पृष्ठभूमि पर आधारित इस उपन्यास को सन् 2000 के व्यास सम्मान से पुरस्कृत किया गया। ‘शतदल सम्मान’ और ‘गाँधी सम्मान’ से सुसज्जित ‘पहला गिरमिटिया’ गाँधी जी को समझने का एक सफल प्रयास है।

Description:
Advaita Vedanta is the non dualistic school of vedanta primarily explicated by Samkara. The purpose of this study is to undertake an analysis of the epistemological issues inherent in the Advaita Vedanta theory of the Knowing and the known to explicate their two tiered theory of knowledge from a phenomenalistic perspective and at the same time to make sense of the overarching unity that prevails over the duality and division. The interpretation and analysis is based on Dharmaraja's Vedanta Paribhasa and its commentary Paribhasa Prakasika. The theory of perception of the text of VP is Gupta's primary focus. The present work also includes a translation of the perception chapter of the text of VP and a free reconstruction of the gloss provided on it by PP. Additionally the book contains extensive critical notes clarifying some of the complex ideas contained in VP and PP.

DESCRIPTION:
In classical India, the Nyaya-Vaisesika school upheld a form of realism, best known as Naive or Direct Realism. Professor Matilal here presents the Nyaya view and critically examines it against the opposing Buddhist version of phenomenalism and idealism. The dispute between the Buddhist and Nyaya schools of thought lasted a little over twelve centuries; and although the author's approach is largely historical, it is informed by the belief that the issues raised by this dispute have a significant contribution to make to modern philosophical concerns. His reconstruction of Nyaya arguments meets not only traditional Buddhist objections but also those of modernsense-data representationalists. One may understand the history of philosophy in a global sense. The dispute that lasted a little over twelve centuries between the Nyaya and the Buddhist over the nature of perception, the critique and criteria of knowledge, and the status of the external world, is undoubtedly an important chapter in the history of global philosophy. It is author's firm conviction that modern philosophical discussion stands to be enriched, and our insight deepened, by a proper analysis and critical study by philosophers today. The need for painstaking research in this field can hardly be over-emphasised.

Effective corporate initiatives and processes are the bedrock of successful organizations, developing practice provides managers with essential frameworks to identify, formulate and implement the best policies and practice in the management and development of people. All employers need to find ways to improve the performance of their people. Yet many of today's personnel departments are abolishing rigid systems of performance management in favor of strategic frameworks that empower individual managers to communicate with, motivate and develop their staff. One of Britain's best-known business writers and the IPD's Policy Adviser for Employee Resourcing draw on detailed data from over 550 organizations - including the latest innovations adopted by leading-edge companies ranging from BP Exploration to the Corporation of London and from AA Insurance to Zeneca, to illuminate how approaches to appraisal have evolved and to identify current best practice in performance management. They explore its history, philosophy and separate elements, the criticisms it has attracted and its impact (if any) on quantifiable business results.

From the Jacket:
This is an original work by an eminent teacher of Philosophy and Religion who can present the best results of Indian and Western scholarship and evaluate them in the light of unbiased insight.
The chapters on comparison of Bengal Vaisnavism with Christianity and Existentialism are highly stimulating.
The book is indispensable to those advanced students of oriental philosophy and religion who are devoted to research work, since no knowledge of oriental philosophy and religion will be complete without a clear understanding of Vedanta and the different types of Vaisnavism.
Philosophy and religion were never kept apart from each other in Indian philosophical tradition. The Vedas, the Upanisads and the Bhagavadgita provide a strong and unshakable philosophical foundation to Hinduism. In the present book, Dr. Misra has made a reinterpretation of the religious and philosophical thought of these sacred and immortal works. It has been found necessary in order to dispel the misinterpretation of Hinduism and meet the challenges that confront it today at the ideological and practical levels. The concepts of the Absolute, Brahman, of man and the world, the destiny of man and other fundamental issues have been discussed with great clarity, thoroughness and depth. The author has brought into clear focus the unique features of Hinduism and its intellectual depth and spiritual grandeur. A distinguishing feature of the present work is that the fundamental ideas of Hinduism have been compared with that of other religions, specially, Christianity and with the great idealistic tradition of the West. The author has also made a critical analysis and evaluation of some current ideas of contemporary Western thought. The present work provides ample evidence of the author's conceptual ability, originality and intellectual integrity. Printed Pages: 646.

Description:
India’s progressive emergence on the world stage, in terms unimaginable just a few decades ago, obliges us to reconsider its image as nurtured by the West for over two thousand years: a prestigious image maybe, but also greatly reductive, as the privileged home of occult knowledge, ecstasy and asceticism, or — quite the opposite — of fabulous riches and voluptuous pleasures. Rather than getting to know India, the West has preferred to dream of it: one result has been that Indian thought, albeit unanimously celebrated as the seat of the highest wisdom, has not been granted even the smallest place on the great stage of the history of philosophy.
This book presents the thought of pre-modern India first and foremost by outlining the cultural parameters within which it arose and developed, and should be read; often associated with religious experience, but also essentially independent of it; sometimes differing in form and outcome, but more often very close to Western thought, and certainly never “alien”.
“This is a marvellous piece of compact insight in all respects: a summary as well as a fresh view of the whole area, always sound and based on first hand experience with the material. I really mean it when I would like to call it the best modern survey of our field at an extraordinary high level of penetration.”
—Prof. Ernst Steinkellner, University of Vienna, Austrian Academy of Sciences

From The Jacket
This book is about numbers and so many questions relating to them. What is the nature of numbers are they discovered or invented? What is mystical about them? Mathematicians develop a hierarchy of numbers in which mysterious dichotomies appear. For example, the integer 5 is not the same as the rational 5 which in turn is different from the real 5. The author explains how this conceptual maze does not affect the laypersons' arithmetic. He also discusses such fascinating topics as primes, perfect numbers, inaccessible numbers and many other unsolved problems relating to the treacherous terrain of infinity, which have baffled mathematicians and philosophers alike.
Jayant Burde has academic/professional qualifications in mathematics, physics, haw and banking. His published papers contain mathematical models in finance and organizational structure. He is also the author of the book Rituals, Mantras and Science.
Sri Madhavacarya (1238-1317) was the historical founder of the Dvaita system, which is one of
the three principal schools of Vedanta. He was a native of Tulunadu in Karnataka. Pajakaksetra,
eight miles south-east of the modern town of Udipi, on the West coast of S. India, was the village of his birth. He lived seventynine years.
He appeared on the Indian philosohical scene after the systems of Sankara and Ramanuja had been well established. The reasons which led him to propound a new system of Vedanta were his doctrinal differences and ideological dissatisfaction with contemporary trends and schools of thought within and without Hinduism and particularly with the system of Sankara which was the dominant philosophy of the time. In spite of the Theistic revolt against Sankara led by Ramanuja, Madhva could not agree with him on many points of Theistic doctrine. So he felt called
upon to give a new lead in thought to his countrymen.
Madhavaís writings are characterized by extreme brevity of expression and compression of thought. They need the help of a very good commentary to be understood in their fulness of thought and depth of meaning and intention. His commentator Jayatirtha has infused into them the necessary amplitude of utterance and expansiveness of thought and wealth of details.
This book is to give a complete, copious, critical and comparative exposition of Sri Madhavacarya's system of philosophy, bringing out its logical strength and metaphysical consistency and satisfyingness. It is intended to be an organic presentation of the system in all its essential aspects. It differs from all the other works in the field, including Dasgupta's, in showing how the concepts and categories of Madhava's philosophical thought have been conceived and formulated and have been put into a coherent system and in what relation they stand to those of other allied and rival systems. It brings out the special significance and interconnections of Madhava's doctrines and the architectonic unity of his system in relation to its parts. The reader is enabled to see for himself and appreciate the precise value and significance of some of Madhava's distinctive contributions to the perennial problems of religion and philosophy-particularly 'Indian Philosophy', for doctrine of Saksi, Svatantra, Visesa, Savisesabheda and Creation as Paradhinavisesapti.
Not only is such a systematic and critical exposition of Madhavaís philosophical system called for, but it has long been overdue. Metaphysically, it embodies the most powerful and sustained refutation of Vedantic monism. It has produced front-rank thinkers like Madhava, Jayatirtha and Vyasatirtha. It has an extensive philosophical literature of rare philosophical penetration, in Sanskrit. It has become the living faith of a large section of the people living in present-day India.
The volume is a good presentation of the philosophy of Sri Madhvacarya, complete in its architectonic unity. The author probes its ontological and epistemological foundations, and critcally examines the structure erected on them. The discussion focuses on crucial doctrines of theism, and brings to light for the first time the striking parallelisms of thought between Madhva and his Western contemporary St. Thomas Aquinas. Light is also thrown on how Madhva and his commentators anticipated the views of modern philosophers like Spencer, Russell and Hobhouse on the nature of time, space and memory. The latest researches on Madhvacarya's role in the Vedantic Bhakti movement and his attempt to harmonize the Upanisadic texts on monism and dualism are substantially drawn upon.

The Quantum Book of Living, Dying, Reincarnation and Immortality
The quantum book of living, dying, reincarnation and immortality
At last, science and the soul shake hands. Writing in a style that is both lucid and charming, mischievous and profound, Dr. Amit Goswami uses the language and concepts of quantum physics to explore and scientifically prove metaphysical theories of reincarnation and immortality.
Dr. Goswami helps you understand the mysteries of the quantum physics model of reality and the long-held beliefs of spiritual and religious traditions. They are not only compatible but also provide essential support for each other. The result is a deeply enriched worldview that integrates mind and spirit into science. Consciousness, not materiality, is the primary reality.
Theoretical nuclear physicist, Dr. Amit Goswami’s work integrates the knowledge of mystical traditions with his love for scientific exploration. He is a pioneer of the new paradigm of science called “science within consciousness” which assimilates theories of consciousness with quantum theory. He received his PhD in physics from Calcutta University and taught at University of Oregon.
“Amit Goswami brings a deep understanding of reality through a synthesis of science and spirituality. He has contributed immensely to my own understanding of the nature of existence.” —Deepak Chopra, International bestselling author.
