Krishna Kumari: The Tragedy of India introduces readers to the first English language play in modern India. Written in 1826 by English Subba Rao, one of the first Indians to be schooled in English, Krishna Kumari depicts the true story of a princess of Udaipur who is forced to commit suicide in order to end a war started by her suitors, the rulers of the neighboring kingdoms of Jaipur and Jodhpur. Tragically, her death proves to be in vain because the mercenaries recruited by the contending rulers nevertheless proceed to plunder the region. All three kingdoms are then compelled to seek the protection of the East India Company, bringing their independence to an end. Sharp and witty, Krishna Kumari was intended to warn Indian principalities against the follies that led to the downfall of the Rajputs. Unfortunately, the play scarcely saw the light of day. Angered by Subba Rao's opposition to their power, the British forced him to withdraw from public life. This is why audiences have never heard of Krishna Kumari-until now. Building on extensive archival research, this volume brings Subba Rao's pioneering drama back to life. The introductory essay by Rahul Sagar, a leading scholar of nineteenth century India, familiarizes readers with the remarkable characters in the play and the violent era in which they lived. By shedding light on Subba Rao's extraordinary life and career, it also reveals how important principalities like Tanjore and Travancore were in battling colonialism and shaping modern India.

Revered Dada J. P. Vaswani, the illustrious spiritual leader and head of the Sadhu Vaswani Mission, was a saint, who carried forward the glorious message of India's rishis and seers. An epitome of love and compassion, forgiveness and selfless service, Dada upheld the teachings of the holy scriptures and guided his followers through the challenges of modern life. During the hundred years of his earthly life, he shared his wisdom and insights with everyone who sought his guidance. Under his direction, the Sadhu Vaswani Mission stood up for causes such as women's empowerment, education, vegetarianism and animal rights on a global level. The book, A Messenger of Love, is an authorized, loving and intimate account of his life written by two of his closest followers to commemorate his first Mahayagna, on the completion of a year from 12 July 2018, when his soul merged in the Divine Ocean. As one reads through this biography, and the many wonderful incidents that shaped his spiritual journey, one is able to experience the magic of his love.
