The Desert Hotel
A bankrupt Indian prince; an heir to the biggest hotel conglomerate; a Parsi horse racing tycoon; a struggling, talented young lady; a virtuous, thoughtful, giving, and eccentric professor. All accidently met at Salzburg during their MBA programme. The interplay of egos, events, and love bring all of them together in a complex matrix—one of love, faith, scorn, enmity, and ambition. After the culmination of the 12-month course, the alchemy has changed; it is now of success, revenge, defeat, and vengeance. At the twilight of his estate, the prince is carousing amongst the British lords and careless social elites, trying to drown the memories of his lost love, Isabella, in Scotch. But destiny forces him to fly back to motherland to take charge of his land. The prince is now close to bankruptcy and at the brink of losing his estate, thanks to an old enemy who wants nothing but to destroy the prince and burn his fortune to the ground. The Desert Hotel is riveting drama set in the background of an international hotel including Indian forts and palaces, corporations, and the depth of love, revenge, care, mentoring, and lifelong relationships.

The twists and turns in the stories make for a nail-biting read! Characterised by strong plots, Four Fingers and Fifteen Nails will keep you on the edge of the bed and surprise you with flabbergasting revelations you would have never expected in your wildest dreams!

Osho Rajaneesh and His Disciples
Osho Never Born Never Died. Only visited this Planet Earth between December 11, 1931-Janurary 19, 1990. As this final inscription suggests, Osho Rajneesh was a paradox: an individual with no claims to being an individual a Master with thousands of disciples who refused to be a Master. He has variously been seen as the god that failed ,the most dangerous man since Jesus Christ and the Buddha for the future .This book brings together some of the best short writings in English on Osho and neo-Sannyasa. Some of the pieces are celebratory, some inquisitive but uncommitted, some scholarly, and some frankly sceptical. The book is divided into four parts, dealing with Osho himself, his Community, Meditation and Therapy, and the Decline and Renewal of his movement, with a postscript on the present commune. Together the papers provide a full picture of a complex man and a vibrant, if turbulent, religious movement.
