Life Finds Its Way is a fascinating account of Nandini Kapadia's close association with Sabyasachi Guha. Her lifelong passionate interest in spirituality as well as her many years as a devotee of Ramana Maharshi led Nandini to the writings of that most radical sage of the 20thCentury, the late U.G. Krishnamurti. In no time, she learned of the existence of his close friend Guha, who as fate would have it, lived only a few miles from her home. The two first met in my apartment in 2013 and since then I have personally witnessed Nandini's transformation and blossoming connection to Guha. Her detailed accounts of their conversations, intimate interactions and impressions which led her to travel with him extensively across continents make for engrossing reading. Her self-analysis is unflinchingly honest and her observations about the people she meets and the places she visits are remarkably astute. A gifted writer and seeker, Nandini's insightful words cannot but help inspire a deeper interest in Guha's radical approach to spirituality and life. - Julie Thayer Author of Travels with U.G.

“I hate you Neev.” Arshiana said. “I hate you more than anyone in this world. You left me when I needed you the most. I never asked you why you left; I thought you would tell me yourself when you are ready. That one day you’ll return. You did not. At least not till I had lost all hope.” * * * “Neev Patel is mine and I am going to ruin Arshiana if tries to come between me and him.” Samiksha vowed. * * * “As long as my heart is beating you can’t die. The reason I am alive is because you are going to live. I will sacrifice my everything to protect you, even my life.” Neev resolved. Nirvaan aka Neev left Arshiana when she needed him the most. He left her because he loved her. Now he is back, but with his love there are unforeseen dangers. Who will win this battle of wills and the price each one will have to pay.
Gujarat lies at the confluence of communities, commerce, and cultures. As the modern Indian state of Gujarat marks its fiftieth year in 2010, this book charts its coalescence into a distinct political and linguistic unit roughly five hundred years ago. From the twelfth to the fifteenth centuries, Gujarat's cosmopolitan coastline and productive hinterland were held together in a contested unity which nurtured the political integration of the region's pastoralists, peasants, soldiers and artisans, and the evolution of the Gujarati language. Forging a Region explores the creation of Gujarat's unified identity, culminating under a lineage of sultans who united eastern Gujarat and Saurashtra by m...
