Summary
Whereas Mahabharata's Bhagvad-Gita is taken as a philosophical guide, Ramayana's Sundara Kãnda is sought for spiritual solace; many believe that reading it or hearing it recited would remove all hurdles and usher in good tidings! Miracles apart, it's in the nature of this great epic to inculcate fortitude and generate hope in man for it’s a depiction of how Hanuman goes about his errand against all odds.
Besides, it portrays how Seetha, on the verge of self-immolation, overcomes despair to see life in a new light? With rhythm of its verse and the flow of the narrative this sloka-to-sloka transcreation of the canto beautiful of Valmiki's adi kavya - the foremost poetical composition in the world, Hanuman's Odyssey that paves the way for Rama to rescue his kidnapped wife is bound to charm the readers and listeners alike.
Dedicated to -
Childhood friends, Nittala Rama Rao, who envisaged that I transcreate in English this momentous episode of the adi kavya and Erramilli Rohini Kumar, who, besides encouraging me to undertake the challenge, came up with the book jacket besides Katlin Darnall of the World Public Library for the enriching editing. -

Summary
The spiritual ethos and the philosophical outlook that the Bhagavad-Gita postulates paves the way for the liberation of man, who, as Rousseau said, ‘being born free, is everywhere in chains’. But equally it is a mirror of human psychology, which enables man to discern his debilities for appropriate redressal.
All the same, the boon of an oral tradition that kept it alive for over two millennia became its bane with the proliferation of interpolations therein. Besides muddying its pristine philosophy, these insertions affect the sequential conformity and structural economy of the grand discourse. What is worse, to the chagrin of the majority of the Hindus, some of these legitimize the inimical caste system while upholding the priestly perks and prejudices.
This endeavour is to restore Gita's original character by ridding it of hundred and ten interpolations, which, besides muddling the understanding of the adherents tend to keep the skeptics away from it.
In this is conveyed Gita’s pristine philosophy in evocative verses without commentary and sans theological twists and ideological turns.

Summary
Bhagavad-Gita is the most beautiful, perhaps the only true philosophical song existing in any known tongue’ – William von Humboldt.
Though it is a matter of consensus that Bhagvad-Gita in the present length of seven hundred slokas has many an interpolation to it, but no meaningful attempt has ever been made to delve into the nature and extent, not to speak of the effect of these on the Hindu society at large.
This ‘overdue’ work, may lead the ‘denied’ Hindu castes as well as the favored folks for an objective approach to the in vogue Bhagvad-Gita which could dispel the misgivings of the former and the delusions of the latter, thereby bridging the Hindu emotional gulf with its abridged book that restores its original form. Whether or not one concurs with its propositions, this original work could be of interest to the students of logic and reasoning as well.
Dedicated to the slighted castes, whose forebear, Krishna,
bestowed the invaluable Gita upon the mankind that in due course was fouled by the vested priestly interests.- Language:

Summary
The sublimity of Muhammad's preaching in Mecca and the severity of his sermons in Medina make Islam a Janus-faced faith that forever bedevils the mind of the Musalmans.
What is more, as Muhammad is the fulcrum of the faith, this book deep delves into his persona, which unmistakably shaped the inimical course of Islam to which the ummah confines the Musalmans to their, and the others' hurt.
That apart, aided by “I’m Ok – You’re Ok”, the path-breaking work of Thomas A. Harris and Roland E Miller’s “Muslim Friends–Their Faith and Feeling”, this work for the first time ever, psycho-analyses the imperatives of the Muslim upbringing that has the potential to turn a faithful and a renegade alike into a fidayēn.
That being the case, this psycho-analytical work of logic and reasoning that critically appraises the Islamic credo of cultish proportions would make even the believers realize that Quran’s Median suras are contextual in nature meant to cater to Muhammad’s socio-political interests but not to further their mundane and spiritual wellbeing.
It is the novel treatment of the otherwise academic exercise that lends novelty to its narrative, making it astimulative and engaging read in the same vein.- Language:

Summary
Hinduism has millions of gods only in name. In practice? No possible human can be expected to remember all that and pray or give any value to them all. Theologically this means you get gods getting assigned responsibility for other deities especially if they have a significant cult following. But if gods literally exist as entities, are they actually devouring and absorbing each other?
Exploring the idea with this fic because I, for one, think Yama would have been thrilled and enjoyed at the idea of voring Dharma.
