Stagnate as a 'creepy caterpillar' or transform into a 'beauteous butterfly'-this path-breaking book of a rare genre suggests-is the seminal choice before mankind, and every one of us. In this setting, the book raises some fundamental questions: What is man's rightful place in the cosmos and his manifest destiny on earth? Why are we so self-righteously self-destructive? Are we a doomed species? Or 'divine' beings struggling to overcome the hubris of the human intellect? Is God getting weary of mankind? How should we synergize human effort and Divine Grace?

Stagnate as a 'creepy caterpillar' or transform into a 'beauteous butterfly'-this path-breaking book of a rare genre suggests-is the seminal choice before mankind, and every one of us. In this setting, the book raises some fundamental questions: What is man's rightful place in the cosmos and his manifest destiny on earth? Why are we so self-righteously self-destructive? Are we a doomed species? Or 'divine' beings struggling to overcome the hubris of the human intellect? Is God getting weary of mankind? How should we synergize human effort and Divine Grace?

The book posits that any betterment in human behavior needs a cathartic change at the deepest levels. That requires diluting the dominance of the mind and reawakening the long-dormant intelligence of the human heart. To meet that challenge, we need minimum numbers, a 'critical mass' to create self-sustained momentum for transformation through consciousness change. And every single human of this generation should behave in such a way that he or she is that single person whose transformation could make the decisive species-scale difference. The book offers a menu of ideas and an agenda of action.

This book could be itself become an input to mobilize that very 'critical mass' it advocates for human transformation.

Well-planned and cohesively written, the book is noteworthy for its delightful blend of information and arguments, and reveals the depth of the author's understanding of the human predicament... This is a closely argued and thought-provoking book...

The Hindu, 13 Sept 2011

[This book] is a gripping exposition on human nature and self-transformation without preference to religion... Challa has critically provided a foundational argument for a deeper discussion of philosophical and practical ideals concerning self-transformation... harmonizing the head and the heart is the way for humans to function as spiritual beings. Recommended by the USR.

The US Review of Books

[The author] reflects upon the crisis of contemporary civilizations and outlines a blueprint for a new world order based on progressive spiritual values and change of human consciousness. The strength of this treatise is the sweep of Challa's reach and his treatment of a vastly complex set of issues that bedevil humankind today...

India International Center Quarterly, Summer 2012

As a thinker and erudite scholar, [the author] has made a profound study of the world situation and the moral decadence of man... [This book] deserves to be on the shelves of university, college and public libraries...

Triveni Magazine, July-Sept 2011

It is difficult to pigeon-hole this book as... a 'prophetic discourse', a 'journey into the human mind', a 'guide for human survival', a 'spiritual treatise'. It is an amalgam of all these and more... the volume reaches out to those who are already uneasy about the way we on this earth are progressing.

Autorenporträt
Bhimeswara Challa, better known as CB Rau, is an Indian novelist and scholarly non-fiction writer.

In his early twenties, influenced by Sarat sahityam, he shaped two surrealistic Telugu novels - క్షంతవ్యులు Kshantavyulu (Pardonable) and అప్రాశ్యులు Aprasyulu (Ostracized) - both bringing out, through their complex characters, the often colliding raw passions and naked urges innate to the human condition. However, his career, stretching over forty years and much globetrotting - first in the Indian Administrative Service and later in the United Nations - had cut short his potential novelistic pursuits. Nevertheless, all along he wrote numerous critical articles to international journals of repute on varied subjects of import.

After he had hung up his career boots, he picked up his literary pen to compose and craft the highly acclaimed scholarly non-fiction book - Man's Fate and God's Choice (An Agenda for Human Transformation) - which won the U.S. Review of Books Golden Seal of Excellence Award - followed by the magnum opus, The War Within - Between Good and Evil (Reconstructing Money, Morality and Mortality).

Bhimeswara (b14 July 1935) currently resides in Hyderabad, India, with his artist spouse, Nirmala.
