Ever since Sir W Jones translated Kalidasa's Shakuntalam into English (1789), many scholars from the West have shown interest in Indian Sanskrit literature. By 1847, 607 works had been translated. Among them, the Gita is one of the most translated works. The Gita and Bhagavatam are the essence of the Vedas, the ancient Indian texts of knowledge. While the 700-sloka Gita is written as a discourse to someone who was finding difficulty to choose between his duty and obligation, the currently available 14094-verse long Bhagavatam is a discourse given to a king who was expecting death suddenly in the next seven days. Translations of the Bhagavatam are not widely available as much as the Gita. This book is written, keeping in mind those who do not look for a religious or literary piece but a useful book that offers a glimpse of ancient Indian wisdom on blending harmoniously personal ethics, politics and morality in life. Bhagavatam, composed in the ancient Sanskrit language probably before CE and contains wisdom of sages and scholars presented in the ancient art of storytelling. This book, divided into two parts, condenses the ancient Indian scripture into eighty invaluable stories along with explanatory notes and a glossary at the end.

The Dews of Wonderland is a collection of poems about experiences and emotions. Generally, poems are the intense experiences of human lives, and it is essential to write and study poetry in order to record and know the history of humanity. The experience of a man is not his complete personal; instead, it's the most common living condition of the whole of mankind. Thus, sharing an individual's experiences of his critical times with his inner as well as outer worlds and the emotions they evoke are inevitably important. Every poem in this collection carries different experiences and emotions, sometimes as a drop of dew and sometimes as a drop of tear. There is always a need to know and understand both experiences. The poems in this collection strongly deal with dilemmatic human psychology; emotional and psychological traumas; the conflict between fantasy and reality; and most notably, dreams. Also, they provide a critical outlook on society and human behaviour in general.

Choosing words with confidence in form of uniqueness is a kind of playing chess at Literature. King, queen, bishop, rook, and pawn have their known capacities, but the possibilities of combination are infinite and unpredictable. Perception on same words, from several essays, speaking or thinking at various temperaments and circumstances to the hearer and listener proportionately makes the same human mind to act with different physiology. To achieve a move is always to solve a problem, and is an essentially a creative art: "As the waves make towards the pebbled shore'' The work of art in existing book has a personal and literary style progressed with visual image, and determined with emotions and self-analysis, also, written very distinctly on human works of immortal beauty and works of nature. An eminent reader of the book, with manner of expression, must act sometimes as a thoughtful human with his general intelligence of his age: the spectacle is the collective life of humanity. No human being knows the whole about himself: It reminds on the Browning's fine poem, 'How it Strikes a Contemporary', who walked about, took note of everything, looked at the new house building, and pocked his stick into the mortar.

You do not just snap your fingers one day and become the butterfly. It takes time, patience and self-growth. This book is a journey, a mosaic made from little fragments of my heart and soul, pieces of my intentions, hopes and dreams. It's been divided into four sections; The Caterpillar, The Cocoon, Metamorphosis and The Butterfly. I've filled each one up with pieces of poetry, tales from my own life and stories that have reached me through word of mouth, recollections of days that have felt like storms and others that have felt like summer. Rants and ramblings of my perceptions of the world, facts and truths of (my) life, and letters of all the things I want to say - cryptically addressed to all the people I want to say them to. For quite a while, this book has held me. And now, it is yours to make your own. I hope that somewhere in between these pages, you feel less alone. And I hope you become the most beautiful butterfly.

Utilitarian Liberation & Common EndO you who believe [in Natural Science]! Stand out firmly for justice, as witnesses to Allah, even as against yourselves, or your parents, or your kin, and whether it (the case be of) a rich man or a poor man, for Allah is nearer to both (than you are). So follow not the lusts [of your hearts], lest you swerve, and if you distort [Created & Manifested Truth] or decline to do justice [with our Fundamental Rights], verily Allah is well-informed of all that you do.

Anta Mawlaanaa fan-surnaa alal-qaw-mil-Kaafi-riin"e; - On no soul Allah places a burden greater than it can bear. It gets every good that it earns, and it suffers every ill that it earns. [Pray:] Our Rab! Condemn us not if we forget or miss the mark! Our Rab! Lay not on us a burden like that which You did lay on those before us. Our Rab! Lay not on us a burden greater than we have strength to bear. Blot out our sins, and grant us forgiveness. Have mercy on us. You are our Protector. Grant us victory over the disbelieving folk [disbelievers of Equal & Opposite Apriori Framework of Natural Science and Un-contradicted Facts of this Manifested Nature]. [Sura (1) - An-tazbahuu Baqarah - Verse - 286]
