Produktbeschreibung

A legend in his lifetime as an administrator and agriculturist, and a voracious reader and man of the arts, M. Varatharajulu compiled a lifetime of experience and wisdom in this simple but profound collection of wisdom from across all time. He has drawn material from a wide variety of sources-scriptures, songs, speeches, classic literature, academic discourse-and sometimes from people holding strongly contrary opinions to give a sense of the range and diversity of opinions in the world. Organised alphabetically by theme, and covering a wide range of diverse subjects, ranging from adjustment to vengeance, this book is a compendium of all wisdom through the ages, distilled by a keen mind. One can dip into it for wisdom and to find material for reflection on almost any topic in the contemporary world. That is what makes this book invaluable and a virtual library in itself, as it contains history, biography, poetry, philosophy and spiritualism distilled into these pages. The wisdom contained between the covers of this book will encourage you to live your life to the fullest. Begin each day with a powerful dose of wisdom and inspiration to overcome fear, boost your self-esteem, create success, enjoy life, claim your inner strength, and make your dreams come true. To borrow from Socrates: Employ your time in improving yourself by other men's writings, so that you shall gain easily what others have labored hard for.

Autorenporträt

M. Varatharajulu (1893-1986) was born in the Chittoor district of undivided Andhra Pradesh. He worked in the administrative services, finally retiring as Deputy Collector, Madras Corporation in 1950. He won numerous awards, including the King Emperor's Silver Jubilee Medal, Lady Linlithgow's and King Emperor's Anti-Tuberculosis Fund medal and the Madras Provincial Welfare Fund medal. As Dewan of Bobbili, he was responsible for the abolition of the Devadasi tradition. After retirement, he settled in Chittoor to fulfill his desire to be an agriculturist in aid of the Grow More Food Campaign, where the produce was sold mostly to the government and local cultivators at low cost for seed purposes. The other project which he undertook was to compile, as a voracious reader, this colossal collection of great thoughts.
