As the King had to go somewhere, Ekrat, the eldest grandson of the King is entrusted to read the unveiled contents. When the King returns, Ekrat tells the King that the book chronicles the life of Bhanu Pratap – The first and the greatest king of the civilization. As Ekrat started narrating the untold story of Bhanu Pratap, he not only reveals the story, but also various concepts of life – including that of friendship, which propelled Bhanu from being a poor shepherd to a civilization builder. Why was the book hidden in the secret chamber of the box? What life concepts did the book reveal? Why was the copper plaque hidden along with the book and what was inscribed on it? To get the answers to these burning questions, read the book to embark on the magical adventure that Ekrat had.

An insight into many untold facts describing the position of Kashmiri Pandits since the pre-independence era, the subsequent developments that shaped the socio - cultural and political environment in J&K, the sowing of the seeds of terrorism much before they showed up and the factors that led to the world’s largest mass exodus of people in their own country, the book charts the role of Shri Amarnath Vaishnavi who was a social activist at the grass root and was at the helm of various historic events pertaining to Kashmiri Pandits that shaped its history and influenced the lives of hundreds of thousands of people. While describing his activism, this biography chronicles historic events witnessed and led by him dating back to 1947 up to the year 2012. This is the revised edition of the book which was first published in 2021. The reader reviews reveal that this first hand account of events, from the diary of Pandit Vaishnavi, serve as a treasure trove of information for the researchers. This book includes a narrative which has long been suppressed. A man who was so influential was never tempted to accumulate wealth or use power to help himself or his close family members. He lived a down to earth life in one of the Kashmiri refugee colonies in Jammu and was honoured with the title, “Father of the Kashmiri Pandit Community.”

The Indian subcontinent was the scene of dramatic upheavals a few thousand years ago. The Northwest region entered an arid phase, and erosion coupled with tectonic events played havoc with river courses. One of them disappeared. Celebrated as -Sarasvati' in the Rig Veda and the Mahabharata, this river was rediscovered in the early nineteenth century through topographic explorations by British officials. Recently, geological and climatological studies have probed its evolution and disappearance, while satellite imagery has traced the river's buried courses and isotope analyses have dated ancient waters still stored under the Thar Desert. In the same Northwest, the subcontinent's first urban society"the Indus civilization"flourished and declined. But it was not watered by the Indus alone: since Aurel Stein's expedition in the 1940s, hundreds of Harappan sites have been identified in the now dry Sarasvati's basin. The rich Harappan legacy in technologies, arts and culture sowed the seeds of Indian civilization as we know it now. Drawing from recent research in a wide range of disciplines, this book discusses differing viewpoints and proposes a harmonious synthesis"a fascinating tale of exploration that brings to life the vital role the -lost river of the Indian desert' played before its waters gurgled to a stop.

Who were the Harappans? How are they related to present-day Indians? Was there never an "Aryan Invasion"? The Sarasvati Civilization: A New Paradigm in Ancient Indian History brings together evidence from satellite imagery, geology, hydrodynamics, archaeology, epigraphy, textual hermeneutics, and DNA research to place together ancient Indian history in the light of new discoveries and facts which were simply not available to colonial historians of the 19th century and have been overlooked thereafter. At the heart of the ancient Indian Civilization was the mighty Sarasvati river which was in full flow 5000-6000 years ago. 60-80 % of the so-called Indus Valley Civilisation sites which have been discovered are not on the banks of the Indus but on the course of the Sarasvati. The drying-out of the river is the most significant factor in the history and migrations of the ancient Indians. With new evidence, the time has come for a significant paradigm shift in Indology. This book breaks new ground to lay the foundation for an authentic Indian history.
