Bhaktiyog (PB)
निष्कपट भाव से ईश्वर की खोज को ‘भक्तियोग’ कहते हैं। इस खोज का आरंभ, मध्य और अंत प्रेम में होता है। ईश्वर के प्रति एक क्षण की भी प्रेमोन्मत्तता हमारे लिए शाश्वत मुक्ति को देनेवाली होती है। ‘भक्तिसूत्र’ में नारदजी कहते हैं, ‘‘भगवान्् के प्रति उत्कट प्रेम ही भक्ति है। जब मनुष्य इसे प्राप्त कर लेता है, तो सभी उसके प्रेमपात्र बन जाते हैं। वह किसी से घृणा नहीं करता; वह सदा के लिए संतुष्ट हो जाता है। इस प्रेम से किसी काम्य वस्तु की प्राप्ति नहीं हो सकती, क्योंकि जब तक सांसारिक वासनाएँ घर किए रहती हैं, तब तक इस प्रेम का उदय ही नहीं होता। भक्ति कर्म से श्रेष्ठ है और ज्ञान तथा योग से भी उच्च है, क्योंकि इन सबका एक न एक लक्ष्य है ही, पर भक्ति स्वयं ही साध्य और साधन-स्वरूप है।’’

Six Glorious Epochs Of Indian History(PB)
Six Glorious Epochs of Indian History is a learning experience which covers the period of Muslim invasions in India and brave retaliation by the natives. No less was the struggle of Indian manes against British rule and for freedom and liberation of the mother country. The author’s tribute to the martyrs and his letters to dear ones from Andamans, miscellaneous statements and writings are also included in this book. The first four epochs are covered in only hundred plus pages while the last two epochs span almost four hundred plus pages, signifying the importance that the author gave to this period.
So far we have been given the picture of British rule, the history and politics in India by foreign and leftist writers, but in this book Veer Savarkar makes us look at the country’s history and politics from the Bharatiya perspective. Not only does he analyse the mistakes committed by Hindus since the time of Alexander’s invasion till the British rule, he tries to enlighten our minds with the prevalent situation in his time. All that he himself learnt from history, he tries to correct through this book of his.SKU: n/a
