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।’’

The story is told. The curtain has been brought down on it. Two life-sentences have been run. And I have brought together my recollections of them within the cover of this book. They are narrated in brief and put together within the narrowest.
When I came into this world, God sent me here possibly on a sort of life-sentence. It was the span of life allotted to me by time to stay in this ‘prison-house of life’. This story is but a chapter of that book of life, which is a longer story not yet ended.
You can finish reading the book in a day, while I had to live it for 14 long years of transportation. And if the story is so tiresome, unendurable and disgusting to you, how much must have been the living of it for me! Every moment of those 14 years in that jail has been an agony of the soul and the body to me, and to my fellow convicts in that jail. It was not only fatiguing, unbearable and futile to us all, it was equally or more excruciating to them as to me. And it is only that you may know it and feel the fatigue, the disgust and the pain of it as we have felt it, that I have chosen to write it for you.
—Excerpts from this bookThis is the story of Swatantrayaveer Vinayak Damodar Savarkar—a great revolutionary, politician, poet and seer who tried to free India from the British yoke!
British policy was to torture and persecute the political prisoners/revolutionaries so that they would reveal the names of all their colleagues or go mad or commit suicide. My Transportation for Life is a firsthand story of the sufferings and humiliation of an inmate of the infamous Cellular Jail of Andamans, the legendary Kala Paani. The physical tortures inside the high walls were made all the more insufferable by the sickening attitude of the men who mattered—the native leaders back home. This is a running commentary on the prevalent political conditions in India and a treatise for students of revolution. It is a burning story of all Tapasvis who were transported to Andaman.SKU: n/a -

The Indian War Of Independence 1857 (PB)
Veer Savarkar was the first man who called the mutiny of 1857 ‘A War of Independence’. Until his time, no Indian had dared to say so. The martyrs of 1857 are really fortunate that they got such a historian to tell their history who himself was both a historian and a creator of history. At times, we visualise Veer Savarkar coloured in the red colour of that revolution, as if he himself was present on the battlefield and participated in the heroic war. At other times, we see him patiently analyse the strengths and weaknesses of both sides—why the mutineers lost and why the British won. The way he analyses the politico-military aspects of the revolution shows his wisdom as a youth of 26 years.
The Indian War of Independence, 1857, is a step by step account of the uprising of Indian Hindus and Muslims against the ruthless British rulers. Tracing footsteps of the barefooted, undernourished and almost unarmed Indian masses challenging the British bullets by the sheer force of their will power, the author establishes beyond an iota of doubt that the uprising was a War of Independence and not a mere Sepoy Mutiny as dubbed by the British.
Some glaring truths about this book:
• This book became the Bible for Indian revolutionaries.
• The book was proscribed by the British Government before its publication.
• The book was smuggled into India and England after it was published in Holland.
• The demand for this book was so enormous that it used to be sold and resold at the stupendous price of Rs. 300 (in 1910).SKU: n/a -

Satya Ke Sath Mere Prayog- Mahatma Gandhi
सत्य के साथ मेरे प्रयोग मैं जो प्रकरण लिखने वाला हूँ, इनमें यदि पाठकों को अभिमान का भास हो, तो उन्हें अवश्य ही समझ लेना चाहिए कि मेरे शोध में खामी है और मेरी झाँकियाँ मृगजल के समान हैं। मेरे समान अनेकों का क्षय चाहे हो, पर सत्य की जय हो। अल्पात्मा को मापने के लिए हम सत्य का गज कभी छोटा न करें।
मैं चाहता हूँ कि मेरे लेखों को कोई प्रमाणभूत न समझे। यही मेरी विनती है। मैं तो सिर्फ यह चाहता हूँ कि उनमें बताए गए प्रयोगों को दृष्टांत रूप मानकर सब अपने-अपने प्रयोग यथाशक्ति और यथामति करें। मुझे विश्वास है कि इस संकुचित क्षेत्र में आत्मकथा के मेरे लेखों से बहुत कुछ मिल सकेगा; क्योंकि कहने योग्य एक भी बात मैं छिपाऊँगा नहीं। मुझे आशा है कि मैं अपने दोषों का खयाल पाठकों को पूरी तरह दे सकूँगा। मुझे सत्य के शास्त्रीय प्रयोगों का वर्णन करना है। मैं कितना भला हूँ, इसका वर्णन करने की मेरी तनिक भी इच्छा नहीं है। जिस गज से स्वयं मैं अपने को मापना चाहता हूँ और जिसका उपयोग हम सबको अपने-अपने विषय में करना चाहिए।
