The red-haired emerald-green eyed Irish American is waiting to die on a mountain-top… under a starlit sky in front of a blazing fire, surrounded by his three imaginary friends: the moth, the chameleon, and the eagle. As he phlegmatically looks back at the adventurous, globe-trotting life he has led, his diary entries, which he had penned during the course of his journey, take us through the important milestones in his life. What could have possibly led him to where he is now? Why is he contemplating suicide? Will he take the final plunge? Predator & Prey looks at life as Yin & Yang. It artistically and philosophically explores psychology, humanity, God, and ultimately, space, time, and the universe, with the aim of making sense of what we call life.
We all wish we possessed a sharp memory. How often do we envy those with clear recall and wondered how they do it while we fumble with names and facts on an everyday basis. Memory is the warehouse, where all static and emotional data is stored. Believe it or not, our brain is bombarded with sixty thousend stimuli each second. The problem starts here; the brain memory has a huge capacity but that space is overstuffed with unnecessary thoughts. People often say that they forget things very fast or that they find it extremely difficult to remember things. The real reason for this is that their memory is overloaded with redundant information which is like virus data obstructing the smooth functioning of the mind, making it weak. Meditation, mental exercises, reiteration, physical exercise which increases oxygen flow to the brain - all these and more, are the lessons we learn in achieving that strong memory we all admire and want.

The Outcasts is a story of loss, running away, hope and return. Three protagonists boldly confront a tradition-driven and repressive world. Through a series of serendipitous encounters, and against all odds, their paths intertwine at a time when each stands at a personal crossroads. Tabu is a rebellious young Muslim woman, who speaks her mind under the guise of jinn influence. Santan, an aging Hindu man, in the face of a near-death experience, suddenly discovers a new spark for life.

Together, they embark on a transformative journey, laced with doubt and danger. They are forced to re-examine their values, renounce their old risk-averse selves, and face a dark night of the soul.

Palmistry is the cryptic code of life. A soul takes birth with his/her manual of destiny written on the hand. What an intriguing thought! Though we do not remember our past births, probably due to karmic amnesia, our brains store this information, in addition to the blueprint of our present lives. According to proven scientific theory, nerves carry messages from the brain to the hands. Palmistry believes that the nerves also carry the cryptic code of our destiny from the brain to the hands. Palmistry can trace its roots back to ancient India. The first section of this volume tells us how to interpret lines and signs on the palm using Hindu palmistry. Some of the ancient signs that are included here, appear for the first time in any book published on the subject. The second section is devoted to outlining the destiny paths of the rich and famous: Barrack obama, Vladmir Putin, Albert Einstein, Sonia Gandhi, Michael Jackson, Prince Charles, Nicole Kidman, Benazir Bhutto and Hillary Clinton. This book includes spiritual messages to help us understand the larger picture and move towards peace and happiness in the journey of life.
