We Are Powerful
This collection of six short stories is set in the city of Madras in the 1990s. Those were more relaxed times when the man from the bakery still brought you cakes and bread on a pushcart, when students were allowed to go out of the school gates to have their lunch and it was safe for children to be left alone till working parents came home. The stories in this anthology revolve around school girls and gives the reader an insight into their thinking, their troubles and their insecurities. Though there is no real answer to their problems, the Dear Diary at the end of every story addresses the issues providing food for thought.

The History of Hinduism and Buddhism
"The History of Hinduism and Buddhism" in 3 volumes is a work by Charles Eliot whose aim is to give a sketch of Indian thought or Indian religion, for the two terms are nearly equivalent in the book, and of its history and influence in Asia. As the author pointed out, it is impossible to separate Hinduism from Buddhism, for without it Hinduism could not have assumed its medieval shape and some forms of Buddhism, such as Lamaism, countenance Brahmanic deities and ceremonies, while in Java and Cambodia the two religions were avowedly combined and declared to be the same. Neither is it convenient to separate the fortunes of Buddhism and Hinduism outside India from their history within it, for although the importance of Buddhism depends largely on its foreign conquests, the forms which it assumed in its new territories can be understood only by reference to the religious condition of India at the periods when successive missions were despatched. This carefully edited collection has been designed and formatted to the highest digital standards and adjusted for readability on all devices.
