From the author of “Light in the Forest: A Dharmic Landscape for Hindu Kids & Their Parents” and “It’s Not for Nothing That We Stand for Something: Basic Intellectual Self-Defence for Hindu Parents” comes this compelling compilation of 21 essays—now presented with a brand-new Preface and Epilogue.
Wide-ranging, incisive and thought-provoking, these essays distil complex ideas from philosophy, sociology, anthropology, and theology into accessible language with an engaging and intimate style. They equip readers with the intellectual tools to navigate contemporary cultural and ideological challenges with clarity and confidence.
Structured into six distinct sections, this book explores:
1. AWAKENING – A sharper, more reciprocal understanding of the place of Hindus in the matrix of modern life.
2. CLARITY – A critical response to historical and contemporary misconceptions that have shaped discourse on Hindu society.
3. CULTURE & VALUES – A deep dive into the nature of cultural imagination with a focus on Hindu values and their place in Modernity.
4. COMMUNITY & SOCIETY – A fresh perspective on the nature of social structures that challenges inherited narratives while fostering self-awareness about ancestral Hindu frameworks.
5. PURVA PAKSHA – A rigorous critique of Western Modernity, Liberalism, and Progressivism from a traditional lens.
6. ENQUIRY – A recap of the dilemmas that Western Modernity has brought to our doorstep, and their possible intellectual resolution through a series of questions, answers and thought excursions.
Rooted in Dharmic thought and unafraid to challenge prevailing narratives, this book is an invitation to think critically, reclaim intellectual agency, and engage with the modern world from a position of insight & strength.
This book presents Tantrayukti, a classical Indian science of structured reasoning, textual analysis, and knowledge presentation, as a practical tool for modern research and academic writing across disciplines. Prof. M. Jayaraman explains how these ancient techniques sharpen thinking, help organize arguments, enhance coherence, and improve the clarity of thesis construction and scholarly communication.

This book presents Tantrayukti, a classical Indian science of structured reasoning, textual analysis, and knowledge presentation, as a practical tool for modern research and academic writing across disciplines. Prof. M. Jayaraman explains how these ancient techniques sharpen thinking, help organize arguments, enhance coherence, and improve the clarity of thesis construction and scholarly communication.
Through illustrations and comparative insights from Sanskrit and ancient Tamil texts, the book demonstrates how Tantrayukti trains the mind to read deeply, reason precisely, and present knowledge systematically. It offers clear explanations of the yuktis supported by examples, charts, appendices, and extensive references, making it valuable not only for those engaged with Indian knowledge but for any researcher, teacher, or student seeking stronger methodological foundations.
“A welcome addition to research methodology, offering robust approaches rooted in India’s knowledge traditions.”
Dr B Mahadevan, IIM Bangalore
“It brings Eastern cognitive wisdom and Western academic rigor together, laying a strong foundation for holistic research.”
Padmashri Dr H R Nagendra, President, SVYASA Society
By bridging ancient cognitive tools with modern academic needs, this book invites readers to rethink how knowledge is analyzed, structured, and communicated.

‘मानस पटल’, हिंदी साहित्य के अंतरिक्ष को प्रज्वल्लित करते लेखकों, तथा अपने स्नेहमयी प्रोत्साहन से मुझे लिखते रहने की प्रेरणा देने वाले पाठको को, मेरी सप्रेम, विनम्र भेंट है।भारत और भारतीयों को समर्पित यह संग्रह, मेरे मन की बात जैसाहै।
राजनीति, देश-प्रेम, प्रकृति, संस्कृति तथा सनातन जैसे विषयों से प्रेरित ये कविताएँ, हर आयु, वर्ग एवं प्रांत के भारतीय को भाएँ -ऐसी मेरी कामना है। 'मानस पटल' मेरे प्रथम अंग्रेज़ी कविता- संग्रह से केवल भाषा में ही नहीं, अपितु शैली और विषय में भीभिन्न है।आज भी कविता में अर्थ ढूँढते पाठकों के प्रोत्साहन का फल है 'मानस पटल'।
