Looking Back Looking Beyond by Sangeeta S Bhagwat - Om Books
Looking Back Looking Beyond by Sangeeta S Bhagwat - Om Books 256,04 NOK
Looking Back Looking Beyond by Sangeeta S Bhagwat - Om BooksAbout the Book :"I wonder if this whole emphasis on understanding where others come from and sympathizing with them without imposing any judgment or correction can go too far? It does make us feel rather noble and evolved and all of that, but really, if someone needs to be shown his erroneous ways, is it not the better thing to do to simply point out what he has done wrong and tell him to mind his behavior? There are times when the way certain people act is just too disturbing and being a passive observer to it is also wrong!” “Thank you for the question, Aditi. I am glad you raised that point. Empathy and compassion must not be confused with encouraging or allowing any form of harmful behavior. It means addressing the problem from its roots, and how will you do that if you do not understand the source of the wrongdoer’s pain; the source which lies in the lack of proper nurturing that the mind and heart of such a man has received, and which we have been fortunate enough to have. “People often confuse ideas of ‘love’ and ‘acceptance’ with being a doormat. That is not what it means. Change is only possible when you see the situation as it is. Only then can the right action arise from a deeper wisdom.”"About the Author :Sangeeta S Bhagwat likes to describe herself as an Inner Landscape Artist. Focusing on inner work to bring about outer change, she facilitates healing and transformation in individuals and groups. She has alternated between being an author and a Life Coach, since 1991. Overcoming various personal challenges from an early age has helped Sangeeta build the compassion, understanding and strength required for inner work. She specialises in helping community and thought leaders in actualising their fullest potentials. Since 2004, she has facilitated workshops to empower people to deal with their individual, emotional and physical problems. Sangeeta has authored several articles, blogs and four other books on healing and self-empowerment. Her first book was translated into Marathi and her book on Emotional Freedom Techniques has been translated and published in Latvian.

Three Sisters by Bi Feiyu - Om BooksAbout the Book :In a small village in China, the Wang family has produced seven sisters in its quest to have a boy; three of the sisters emerge as the lead characters in this remarkable novel. From the small-town treachery of the village to the slogans of the Cultural Revolution to the harried pace of city life, Bi Feiyu follows the women as they strive to change the course of their destinies and battle against an “infinite ocean of people ” in a China that does not truly belong to them. Yumi will use her dignity, Yuxiu her powers of seduction, and Yuyang her ambition—all in an effort to take control of their world, their bodies, and their lives. Like Dai Sijie’s Balzac and the Little Chinese Seamstress, Arthur Golden’s Memoirs of a Geisha, and J.G. Ballard’s Empire of the Sun, Three Sisters transports us to and immerses us in a culture we think we know but will understand much more fully by the time we reach the end. Bi’s Moon Opera was praised by the Los Angeles Times, the Minneapolis Star Tribune, and other publications. In one review Lisa See said: “I hope this is the first of many of Bi’s works to come to us.” Three Sisters fulfills that wish, with its irreplaceable portrait of contemporary Chinese life and indelible story of three tragic and sometimes triumphant heroines.About the Author :Bi Feiyu is one of the most respected authors and screenwriters in China today. He was born in 1964 in Xinghua, in the province of Jiangsu. A journalist, poet and novelist, he has been awarded a number of literary prizes, including the prestigious Lu Xun Literary Prize.

After failing the entrance exam for the Naval Academy, he decided to go for aviation. In 1921, he joined the French Air Force where he first learned to fly a plane. Five years later, he left the French Air Force to begin flying air mail between remoter settlements in the Sahara desert.When World War II broke out, Saint-Exupéry rejoined the French Air Force. After Nazi troops occupied France in 1940, Saint-Exupéry fled to the United States. He had hoped to join the U.S. war effort as a fighter pilot, but was turned down because of his age. Instead, he drew upon his experiences in the Sahara desert to write and illustrate what would become his most famous book, The Little Prince (1943).Shortly after completing the book, Saint-Exupéry returned to North Africa to fly a warplane for his country. On July 31, 1944, Saint-Exupéry took off on a mission. He was never seen again.

Extra footage is given to the greenhorn until one morning, when this rookie finds his mailbox flooded with congratulatory messages: starting with a two-liner from the immediate superior, invariably a camp follower of a greater God, endorsed by the greater God, and a still greater God, and so on. Then the creator, destroyer and preserver of the newsroom sign it off, “Congrats. Keep at it!” Messages start pouring in from bureaus across India—the baptism is over.’"About the Author :Prabhat Shunglu began as a reporter with The Statesman and later worked for The Pioneer and The Times of India, before switching to electronic media with BiTV.

Lieable by Ishita Agarwal - Om BooksAbout the Book :All Janya wants to do is survive the daily battleground that is 8th grade. She wants none of the complications that arrive with backstabbing-friends- mind-boggling boys, or skipped classes. Being brought up by a single parent isn't a cakewalk either, and investigating a certain unwelcome addition to her father's social life is added to her rapidly expanding to-do list. The universe clearly thinks she can handle all this and more, giving her more than her fair share of teen dilemmas as well as an inexplicable superpower. But surely there must be some reason she landed up with the bizarre ability to detect liars every time they give away a fib? As if being a teenager wasn't hard enough already.About the Author :Ishita Agarwal was born in Panchkula and has lived in a number of cities before returning close to her birthplace, Chandigarh, where she is currently studying. She spends her free time reading, playing the guitar and blasting away the bad guys in MarioKart and Legend of Zelda on her Nintendo Wii. If she could choose to be gifted with one superpower, it would be flying, as she would rather soar in the open sky than in a claustrophobic aeroplane. Apart from closed flying contraptions, she is terrified of dogs. Her writing influences include John Green, Meg Cabot and Louise Rennison. She hopes that, in the years to come, Indian teenagers will have access to a wider range of books they can identify with. Lieable is Ishita’s first published work.

Shiva : Lord of Dance by James H. Bae - Om BooksAbout the Book :Shiva: Lord of the Dance recalls captivating ancient tales of kingly sacrifices, sinister plots, ghastly armies, spontaneous incinerations and plummeting rivers that threaten the planet. These are stories of otherworldly passions and celestial dancing, worthy of retelling again and again. Coupled with over 30 full-color illustrations, this attractive mini book eclipses traditional symbolism, exploring the very nature of this complex god and how he relates to us. For many of us, the mention of Shiva's name conjures up images of an ash-smeared ascetic meditating high in the Himalayas, a protector of Parvati and Ganesh, or a dancing, destructive god. In traditional art, he is seen sitting on a tiger skin rug, his long matted hair tied in a topknot, adorned by the crescent moon. But who is this mysterious figure, and what does he have to teach us?About the Author : Binding : Paperback Pages : 96 Genre/Categories : Sprituality Size(W x H) MM : 85 x 115 Author : James H.

Turnaround : A public sector story by Shiv Malik - Om Books 296,96 NOK
Turnaround : A public sector story by Shiv Malik - Om BooksAbout the Book :It is imperative that the public sector itself should be reformed in a manner that the majority of employees are able to perform effectively without fear. They should also have the autonomy to perform, the freedom and empowerment to invest and recruit the right quality of human resources, and also make other important decisions. [...] The suggested reforms include rectifying the seriously flawed process of recruitment for top jobs; bringing down the government stakes to below 50%; separating management control from ownership; selling state equity to a wide array of retail investors, financial institutions and employees within a stretched time-frame, ultimately transferring ownership to the employees, and setting up a special-purpose vehicle, to make all the above possible. An entrepreneurial solution to rehabilitate surplus staff has also been offered. These solutions will be of great help and add a people's dimension to the reforms. They will create at least the minimum conditions of performance as they remove hurdles arising from public ownership. However, it is not necessary that people will perform unless the corporate governance, administration, and management improves. Good corporate governance is a function of the quality of management.About the Author :Shiv Malik was Chairman and Managing Director of MMTC Ltd. (1992-97) and PEC Ltd. (1989-93), during the tumultous years when these companies faced discontinuity of business due to trade reforms and their sunsequent loss of monopoly. He has served on many other boards, including those of NDMC; MTNL; NALCO; NINL; MMTC Transnational PTE Ltd., Singapore; Gopalpur Port Company Ltd. and National Centre for Trade Information.

Thunder Over Kandahar by Sharon E McKay - Om BooksAbout the Book :Best friends Tamanna and Yasmine cannot believe their good fortune when a school is set up in their Afghan village, however, their dreams for the future are shattered when the Taliban burn down the school and threaten the teacher and students with death. As Tamanna is faced with the prospect of an arranged marriage to an older man and the Taliban target Yasmine's Western - educated family, the girls realise they must flee. Travelling through perilous mountain passes, the two unaccompanied teens find themselves in moral danger as they confront land mines, a suicide bomber and roving brands of the Taliban. But when the two girls are separated, they are left without the one thing that has helped them survive - each other.About the Author :In 2009 Sharon E McKay was named as a Canadian War Artist, the first young adult writer to hold the title. This venerable institution that hearkens back to WWI includes Alex Sorrell, George Plante, A.R. Thompson, Arthur Lismer, and Alex Colville. War artists may or may not support the action, but historically they support the soldier. Sharon’s trip to Afghanistan in 2009 (KAF and Bazaar-E-Panjwayi, Kandahar Province, on the Pakistan border) inspired her to write Thunder over Kandahar (2010). She writes outside her level of comfort, and often chooses areas of the world that are hard to reach. War Brothers: The Graphic Novel(2013) is the harrowing story of child soldiers in northern Uganda. To do her research, she went to Gulu, Uganda, and interviewed child soldiers. The striking art by Daniel Lafrance brings the story to vivid life. The original novel has been reissued and is available for sale in the United States only. Sharon also loves historical fiction. Esther is the story of the first Jew to live in New France at a time when Jews and Protestants were not allowed. The Whispers series, stories from the Holocaust, was written with the author Kathy Kacer, herself the daughter of Holocaust survivors. Enemy Territory (2012), addresses the Mideast conflict through the eyes of two teenage boys who learn to trust each other despite coming from opposite sides of the struggle. Once again, Sharon lived with families in Israel and in the West Bank as part of her research. Her latest book, The End of the Line (2014), is a novel for middle-grade readers about a young Jewish girl who is saved from certain death by kindly strangers during the Nazi occupation of Holland in World War II. With her latest book, Prison Boy (Spring 2015), Sharon tackles the difficult issue of child torture. In an unnamed country, two young boys are left to fend for themselves after the orphanage where they were living, is shut down. The older boy unwittingly sets off a bomb, killing many people. What follows is the harrowing story of his ordeal and his fierce determination to protect the younger boy.

When Arya Fell Through The Fault by Reenita Malhotra Hora - Om BooksAbout the Book :When Arya Fell Through the Fault is the magical, coming-of-age tale of Arya, a twelve-year-old boy from San Francisco, who is ridiculed by bullies. Anything to do with his ethnicity—food, traditions or the fascinating mythological stories he has been raised with—has become the building block of unpleasant school experiences. In the wake of an accident that confines his once vibrant mother to a hospital ward—kept alive by tubes and machines— Arya clings to the only remnant of their bond: an old, battered copy of the Ramayana, India’s ancient epic story of Rama’s battle against demons. One night, Arya falls through a fault in the earth into the Wild Woods, where Ravana—the demon king—strategises to destroy his Ramayana—the last copy left—and threatens to rewrite history from his evil perspective. Will Arya be able to save the story of Rama, heal his motherand return home to tackle the demons in his ordinary world? “A swashbuckling adventure in the land of the Ramayana where Arya must escape the clutches of his inner Ravana.
