“Dharma is law in its widest sense—spiritual, moral, ethical and temporal": How Chanakya's Arthashastra shaped the Telling of Ancient Indian History and should be read simply for its sheer brilliance in the area of statecraft and economics
The Arthashastra is so much a part of modern Indian vocabulary on politics, economics, and society that it is hard to imagine that this was a book unknown to the English-speaking world until an old manuscript was discovered in 1904. It was translated and presented to the world by R. Shamasastry of the Mysore Oriental Research Institute in Sanskrit, in 1909, and in English in 1915.

Pratibha Patil, first woman President of India and a Sonia Gandhi aide, from her jet-set foreign trips with family entourages to personal possession of diplomatically exchanged gifts, always reflected an aristocratic demeanour during her presidency
With the NDA electing Droupadi Murmu as its Presidential Candidate, one is reminded of Pratibha Patil, the first woman to become the President of the Republic of India. While Murmu is already being hailed as a humble, grassroots face and is likely to become the first tribal woman President, Patil’s tenure is remembered to this date for all the wrong reasons.

"Who is Hindu": In real sense, grand tradition can be defined and understood as ten thousand faiths gathered in harmony under a single umbrella is Hinduism, Sanatan Dharma, where dharma is the duty, and karma is our actual behaviour
Hinduism is a diverse tradition and very different from other monolithic religions. In the monolithic sense, it is defined by The Four Pillars. Faith (sraddha) is individualistic whereas religion (dharma) is collective, and so Hindus are encouraged to explore their faith, which is why there are more Hindu scriptures and textual opinions on spirituality than any other religion. There isn’t a single scriptural or spiritual authority to define matters of the faith for Hindus, unlike in some other religions with a central pontiff.

"Aum Mahadevaya Namaha - The Great Universal God": Sanatana Dharma forces human mind, time and time again, to accept the fact that Divine is all that exists, both clean and unclean, pure and impure, auspicious and inauspicious
In the bewildering galaxy of gods of the Hindu pantheon, Lord Shiva stands out as one of the oldest and best-loved. He is as old as the Indian culture, perhaps even older. At the time of the cosmic dawn, before the creation of man, he appeared as the divine archer, pointing with his arrow to the unrevealed Absolute. The world is his hunting ground. The universe resounds with his presence. He is both sound and echo. He is intangible vibration as well as an infinitesimal substance. He is the rustling of the withered leaves and the glossy green of the newborn grass. He is the ferryman who ferr...
