How I Came to Christ
Some people ask God for temporal gifts. In the author's case, he has never asked God for anything. But being a devout Hindu for twenty years was only bringing misery, disease, poverty, hunger, and social ostracization in his life. There had to be a better path for him to follow. In his forties he started to engage with the Light--Christ--that he had done so in his formative years. He just asked for his will to be done in his life. He found more solace and less confusion and more clarity with God. This book relates the author's journey, an ongoing one, towards Jesus Christ, his One and Only LORD and Savior now.
Lockdown
The respected Times of India journalist reveals the truths and consequences of the country’s unprecedented COVID-19 lockdown. On March 24, 2020, with approximately five hundred reported COVID-19 cases reported and only hours notice, India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi ordered the most stringent national lockdown the world has ever seen. Two months later, Modi announced the fourth phase of national lockdown with some relaxations. Now in phase five of lockdown—and as restrictions are loosened even more—all everyone knows for sure is what is unknown: What happens to the virus as India reopens? What happens to the Indian economy? And what happens to Modi? Lockdown brings you inside an event that will affect the world around us perhaps for decades to come.
Modi 2.0
German Chancellor Angela Merkel has been known to be critical about India's policies in Kashmir. But when on Prime Minister Narendra Modi's birthday in 2020, Merkel sent him a note wishing him with the words Liebe Narendra (Dear Narendra), written in hand, one knew that Modi had arrived on the world stage. Modi 2.0: Beyond the Ordinary is an objective analysis of the prime minister, his struggles and achievements, his spiritual journey, the men and the women in his life, and his friends and enemies. It also doesn't shy away from discussing the difficult questions surrounding Modi-Godhra and his relations with India's Muslims. Self-confessedly, author Sunil Sharan was once critical of Narendra Modi but after carefully observing him for years, he realised that Modi is indeed a transformational man. Today, India stands rejuvenated, its prestige around the world high, the spirit of its people uplifted. Once the question used to be: Who after Nehru? Now the question is: Who after Modi? Modi 2.0 debates the possibilities.
Sex Lies and the Guptas
It was the groaning and the moaning and the grunting and the gasping that got to me. I had returned to my home in Delhi after seven years. My bedroom was separated by a solid 10" brick wall from theirs. Theirs meaning Pradip and Manju Gupta's. I had never heard these sounds--the moaning and the groaning, the gasping and the grunting--from their side before. Pradip was 65, Manju was 57. They were both on the heavy side. Very heavy side. I could not believe that they could be at it like this. They were my first cousins.The following day I spoke to another first cousin, Chander, about it. He asked me to go tell them to go Hit It. I had never heard of this term before. It seemed to be a typicall...
Assassinating the President
A Pakistani man comes to grad school in the US and falls in love with the country. But he encounters rampant discrimination. His beard is torn from his face. He undergoes a rectal exam. He is mercilessly beaten. He becomes completely radicalized after the wars in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, and Yemen in which millions of Muslims have died and in which the US has played a leading or a supportive role. His brother is killed by an American bomb. He wants to assassinate the US president. When the protagonist had not been radicalized, he had discovered a clear line of sight to the White House. At the last minute he is consumed by remorse and aborts his plan. The moral of the book is that the president should be moved to a secure location. That way future presidents would be protected.
On One Knee
Anne Boleyn, the second wife of England's King Henry VIII, was beheaded in 1536 by a French swordsman, rather than the standard axe-wielding executioner.Sword or axe, the executioner got it wrong, leaving his target writhing in pain, until he delivered another blow, and then another, until the job was painfully done. The guillotine was invented in France as a more humane form of execution than the sword or the axe, and remained in use until 1977. Marie Antoinette went to the guillotine in 1793, during the Reign of Terror. The guillotine was precise and almost instantaneous.In 2020, in Minneapolis, the United States of America, a variation of the guillotine was invented. It was guillotine by ...
Modi

How America's Transformed India
In my third year at college in India, a rock band came to town. They held a concert in the center of the campus, at what were called the D-Lawns. I was painfully shy in college, and had just about one friend. I was a complete loner; everyone shunned me. I made my way to the concert alone and saw an empty piece of grass, looked at the guy behind me and asked him for permission to sit down when I had no need to, and then plonked myself down, embarrassed at all the fuss I had created.It was 1988. Since I was a loner, I was always philosophizing to myself. Why did India ape all of the evil of the West? Why didn't it imbibe some of the energy? These questions plagued me. Of course, I did not shar...
