ye yathâ mâṁ prapadyantetâṁs tathaiva bhajâmy aham, mama vartmânuvartantemanuṣyâḥ pârtha sarvaúaḥ "As all surrender unto Me, I reward them accordingly. Everyone follows Mypath in all respects, O son of Pṛthâ." (Lord Krishna) "None knows the real inwardness of my Baba; some said he was a Yogi, a sensualist, a wise man, some a hypocrite, some called him Brahman or God. (But) Baba's state is- Siddha Avasta. Each finds in him what he thinks him to be". Poojya Narasimha Swamiji continues: "Let us pray at the feet of Sai Baba, the incarnation of all gods and protector of all, to show mercy on us, and increase our devotion towards him".

'A Master Surgeon in love with Humanity’ delineates the story of renowned surgeon Dr. Shyama Prasad. An avid reader since childhood, Shyama Prasad was the brightest among all his siblings. Driven with mounds of inquisitiveness, he was inclined to heuristic approaches and was always passionate for pressing himself with empirical practices to grasp the concepts better. He was infused with the knack of performing surgeries right from his days as a student. There were moments when he was at his wits’ end. Nevertheless, his diligent pursuit of excellence in his field aided to his metier. The book beautifully melds historical accounts with the story of the doctor and provides the readers insights to some major events that betided earlier. Furthermore, the book recounts the story of Shyama Prasad's father, Dr. Sundaraiah and allows readers to delve in. A depiction of Sundaraiah's fair share of struggle inscribed in the book suffices to establish that it is the story of a father and son who moved mountains to attain the fount of unparalleled success.
The word 'Rinanubandh' literally means 'Karmic debt'. It is an impossible task to write the exaxt meaning of this word, as a lot of nuances are lost while doing so. When you read the lives of Babs's devotees you realise that it has deeper meaning. A bond that has existed for many generations. His devotees came from varied backgrounds. Some highly educated, others were rustic villagers. Some were young, while others were middle-aged and set in their ways. They went to Shirdi not knowing what to expect. Others went there by chance. But once they met Baba their lives were changed forever. And the 'Karmic bond"" started unfolding. Thus they returned time and again to be with the living God who blessed them and gave them a handful of udi. In the years that followed, no matter what befell them they knew that Baba was always with them. This book is a kaleidoscope of leelas, photographs and the lives of Baba's devotee. It will make the reading of Shri Sai Satcharita easier and fruitful.
In Ladakh, there is a popular saying: Only the 'truest of friends' and 'fiercest of enemies' come to Leh. Nikhil and his group of dysfunctional friends belong to the third kind: 'craziest of wannabes'. Going Leh on bike would need them to surmount the road of world's highest passes and deadliest traps. And just when they begin to reckon that life can't get messier, they get stranded in an inhospitable land. It is here that their conflicting emotions surface, their dark secrets unfold and their fears come alive. It is here that they begin to apprehend the real essence of life. There can be no worldly justification to nurture such unrealistic option ahead of their lives. But why can't they resist its temptation? Why should they find it tempting at first place? Is this what they had sought to achieve when they left home? Is this the decisive journey of their rebellion? Would this consummate their search for that triumphant moment, their quest 'For That Incredible High'?
