The Complete Works of Swami Parthasarathy
"..comprises the original writings of A. Parthasarathy, his translation and commentary on certain ancient Sanskrit texts and some selected English poems. Together they constitute the syllabus he has set for his three-year residential course on the practical philosophy of life at the Vedanta Academy, India"--page 5.
Thesis on God
The human race has accepted the word God unquestionably from time immemorial. Which has resulted in an avalanche of diverse faiths warring with each other. To circumvent this and present the true nature of God the thesis provides adequate literature. God is the supreme Self, a Sakshi, a detached Witness of activities of the body, mind and intellect. A role in beings which fits in with that of petrol in vehicles. Petrol is a sakshi which activates vehicles while witnessing the best or worst of their performances.
The Sai Way
Countless books have been written about Sai Baba so far. Then why one more? And why does Dr Suresh Haware, who was the chairman of Saibaba Sansthan, want to write it? The answer lies in his five years of divine experience at Shirdi, an experience of a different world. Sai Anubhuti is not theoretical; it is practical. It cannot be expressed in words, he says. The Sai philosophy of 'shraddha-saburi' and 'sab ka malik ek' is very easy to understand but equally difficult to practise. Despite being a renowned nuclear scientist, Dr Haware states that there is something beyond science, something ethereal, an experience of the divine that cannot be completely captured. The events that led to his becoming the chairman of the trust indicate that Sai ways are not linear. The Sai Way is a beautiful tribute to Sai philosophy and spirituality narrated from a lived experience coupled with information about Saibaba Sansthan.

Bhaja Govindam: Seek the Eternal
A commentary on the introductory scriptural text by philosopher-saint Adi Shankaracharya. For those interested in the study of the scriptures, this book provides a short and simple beginning. The text provides the basic instructions on life. It highlights the two main motivations which propel the life of a human being viz.acquisition and enjoyment. The first motivation drives him to acquire, aggrandise, hoard wealth. And the second causes him to indulge in the enjoyment of the acquired wealth. The text points out the hollowness of these external pursuits. Directs you to seek the supreme Self within. And reach the eternal Abode of peace and bliss.
The Holocaust of Attachment
The lack of intellect has caused the mind’s attachment to spouses, children, wealth, religion, practically everything. The virus of attachment has reached epidemic proportions and the world is in a state of emergency. Yet none seems to recognise the problem, much less tackle it. The solution lies in a concerted effort worldwide to resurrect the fallen intellect. A powerful intellect alone would destroy the virus and generate peace and harmony in the society.
