Book Description
Poet Kalidas has painted in his epic, all beauties, Sweet flavour, coming from wet-soil, beauty of kadamba forest, buds of land champa-all take us to dream world. Kalidas did not establish any specific way for future poets. He was immersed in his own world of his genuineness. This is a significant departure from many other poets in the world. His epic signs like this:- “on seeing, eyes become pleasant thinking, hearts are happy, world makes happier abode, stream of honey pours into ears draws like from heart. “How it is, rubbed with honey becomes peerless home”. In Raghubangsha epic, Kalidas has said, “at the end of yoga I shall leave my body”. When my body becomes old, through yoga like torn clothes, it can be thrown out and then achieve a new body, so this yoga was in vogue at the time of Kalidas. It is presumed that great poet Kalidas practised “yoga” which helped him know and analyse mind of matter as well as humans and non humans, thus success came to him.

Book Description
Part American road trip, part coming-of-age adventure, and part uncommon love story—a remarkable memoir that explores the evolution of the human-animal relationship, along with the raw beauty of a life lived outdoors. Melissa Chapman was 23 years old and part of a happy, loving family. She had a decent job, a boyfriend she cared about, and friends she enjoyed. Yet she said goodbye to all of it. Carrying a puppy named Gypsy, she climbed aboard a horse and rode away from everything, heading west. With no cell phone, no GPS, no support team or truck following with supplies, Chapman quickly learned that the reality of a cross-country horseback journey was quite different from the fantasy. Her solo adventure would immediately test her mental, physical, and emotional resources as she and her four-legged companions were forced to adapt to the dangers and loneliness of a trek that would span over 2,600 miles, beginning in New York State and reaching its end on the other side of the country, in California. Enchanted by the freedom a nomadic life seemed to promise, the young woman would soon find herself only more deeply connected…to the animals that accompanied her, to the varying and challenging landscapes through which she traveled, and to the people she met on the farms and back roads that crisscross the United States. Chapman's vigilance in detailing the quietest moments of heroism and beauty, as well as the startling and tragic, yields a read that convinces one of both the magnificence of the countryside and the generosity of the people who call it home. A book for the equestrian, the animal lover, and the outdoor enthusiast—or anyone who dreams about one day bringing a longed-for adventure to life.
