Things We Don’t See is the story of a boy from a small village who dared to dream beyond what he could see. It’s a journey powered by imagination, shaped by setbacks, fueled by questions about life, existence, and what it means to matter. From chasing butterflies and stories of ghosts to navigating corporate boardrooms and global strategy, L.C. Singh takes us through a life of sharp contrasts—rural innocence to global ambition, failure to recognition, longing to stillness. It’s a deeply human tale of becoming someone in the world’s eyes, only to discover that true action comes when it aligns with one’s purpose.
Told with honesty and quiet strength, this memoir explores the unseen threads that guide us—our inner drive, our curiosities, and our need to find peace not just in what we do, but in who we are.
At the edge of all ambition and all inquiry, he found what he wasn’t chasing: stillness.

शहीद-ए-आजम भगत सिंह सिर्फ एक नाम नहीं, बल्कि एक उग्र विचार, गहन अध्ययन और अटूट बलिदान का प्रतीक हैं। यह किताब भगत सिंह के व्यापक जीवन को एक अद्वितीय और भावनात्मक दस्तावेज़ीकरण के माध्यम से प्रस्तुत करती है। इसमें उनके जीवन के हर पहलू को उन लोगों की आँखों से देखा गया है, जो उनके सबसे करीब थे। इसमें उनके माता-पिता और रिश्तेदारों की ममतामयी स्मृतियाँ हैं जो उनके बचपन की मासूमियत और पारिवारिक मूल्यों को दर्शाती हैं। शिव वर्मा और दुर्गा भाभी जैसे क्रांतिकारी मित्रों के साथ साझा किए गए सपने, संगठन की रणनीतियाँ और जेल के भीतर हुई उनकी बौद्धिक बहसों का विस्तृत लेखा-जोखा भी इस किताब का हिस्सा है। साथ ही महात्मा गांधी, जवाहरलाल नेहरू और अन्य समकालीन राजनेताओं के विचार भी हैं, जो उनकी शहादत के बाद भगत सिंह के राजनीतिक और दार्शनिक महत्त्व को स्थापित करते हैं। बचपन की शरारतों से लेकर नास्तिकता और समाजवादी दर्शन की ओर उनका झुकाव; असेंबली में बम फेंकने का दुस्साहस और “इंकलाब जिंदाबाद” का नारा—यह कृति उनके ऐतिहासिक महत्त्व के साथ-साथ उनके मानवीय पक्ष को भी उजागर करती है।

The Vedanta was an inseparable part of Swami Vivekananda’s personality. He lived and breathed this philosophy while preaching it to India and the west. While Vivekananda’s landmark address at the Parliament of Religions in Chicago in 1893 established him as modern India’s great spiritual leader, his popularity and appeal is attributed to his ability to integrate his human side with his profound spiritual side.
In this beautifully written biography, Chaturvedi Badrinath liberates Vivekananda from the confines of the worship room and offers an unforgettable insight into the life of a man who was the very embodiment of the Vedanta that he preached.
On Thursday, 5 April 1877, thirty-year-old Annie Besant stood trial in London for daring to sell a small book on birth control—an act that shocked Victorian society and made her a household name. This was only the beginning of a lifetime spent defying authority.
Besant began as a devout Christian wife, only to renounce her faith and embrace atheism. She became a fiery socialist voice in the strikes and protests of the 1880s, then turned to Theosophy in search of spiritual truths. But it was in India that she found her greatest cause. Moving beyond religion and reform, she became a leader in the Indian movement for self-rule, edited nationalist newspapers, campaigned for self-rule and was even interned by the British government for her influence. To many Indians she was a heroine; to the colonial State, a dangerous agitator.
Annie Besant’s life was extraordinary and full of contradictions: from politics to mysticism, from the London suburbs to the heart of India’s freedom struggle, from Christian piety to Theosophical priestesshood. The Nine Lives of Annie Besant tells the complete story of a woman who broke all the rules.

“I came from the village utterly blank, with nothing written on me. Even while I was away from that village I had remained a wild boy. I have never allowed anybody to write anything on me. People are always ready—not only ready but insistent that they write something on you. I had come from the village empty, and I can say now that all that has been written in between I have erased, and erased completely. In fact I have demolished the wall itself so you cannot write anything on it ever again.”

In 1986, as Indian and Chinese troops faced off in Sumdorong Chu in Arunachal Pradesh, an Indian general airlifted a brigade to occupy dominating heights, putting pressure on the Chinese below. The audacious General Krishnaswamy Sundarji swung the momentum decisively in India’s favour, forcing the Chinese to back-pedal in the Himalayas.
The following year, the same army chief planned Operation Brasstacks, one of the largest military exercises since World War II. The move threatened Pakistan’s nuclear ambitions, unnerving General Zia-ul-Haq and prompting him to seek rapprochement.
The 1980s were a decade of dramatic turns: events that led to the assassinations of two Indian prime ministers, political upheaval and military crises. General Sundarji oversaw two of the most controversial operations in independent India: Operation Blue Star, against Sikh militants inside the Golden Temple, and Operation Pawan, against Tamil militants in Sri Lanka. He was also drawn into the Bofors acquisition and the scandal that followed, which helped bring down a government.
But who was Krishnaswamy Sundarji? How did his penchant for bold, sometimes brash decisions take shape? Was he too ambitious? Was he ahead of his time in pushing for technology-driven warfare, or behind it as insurgencies demanded a more improvised approach?
This definitive biography by bestselling author Probal Dasgupta traces the life and times of one of India’s most charismatic yet forgotten army chiefs. Sundarji’s career mirrored the journey of a young nation, often echoing its political choices and contradictions. The only general to have influenced both military and political thinking in India’s democracy, his brisk 820-day tenure saw the army through modernization, crises, controversies and change. This book explores Sundarji’s central role in shaping the modern Indian Army and his influence during the turbulent 1980s.
In today’s rapidly evolving business landscape, the ability to navigate crises is paramount for any organization. This book provides invaluable insights into how CG Power, once on the brink of collapse, successfully redefined its trajectory through strategic leadership and unwavering commitment to ethical governance. This story serves as a compelling reminder that with the right vision, dedication, and teamwork, even the most challenging situations can be transformed into opportunities for growth.
