Book Description
After 25 years, Miraya is back in the mystic and magnificent mountains of Ladakh to spearhead her “Class of 88” school reunion trek. On her maiden visit to the land of Las and Tsos as a young lieutenant of the Indian Army, Miraya was part of a trans-Himalayan trekking expedition from Khardung La to Pithoragarh. Traversing 1700 KM on foot for over two months, braving exhaustion and a near life-threatening avalanche, Miraya had also bared her soul and cried her heart out for her unrequited first love. The mighty mountains, meandering rivers and mesmerizing meadows instead gifted her renewed joie de vivre. Decades later, in the same landscape, all her deep entrenched emotions, longing and memories surge to the surface. Who was the person her heart had cried out for 25 years back? Why was she to meet him for the very first time in Ladakh? Was the Universe conspiring to bring them together in its veritable vistas? Or Does the land she considers to be the Mecca of Life offer a new insight? Read on L'affaire Ladakh for the affair to unfold!

Book Description
The modern history of Ladakh has been profoundly shaped by influences from South Asia and beyond. In detailed empirical case-studies the contributors document and analyse change and continuities in this region brought about by colonialism, independence and modernisation. In an introductory review essay highlighting emerging themes and continuing debates in the scholarship on Ladakh, the editors argue for the need to situate Ladakh in an Indian and South Asian context, while also taking into account its cultural, linguistic and historical ties with Tibet. Studies from the neighbouring (sub)regions of Kargil, Ladakh, Zangskar and Baltistan are brought together to make an important contribution to the anthropological and sociological literature on development and modernity, as well as to Ladakh, Tibetan and South Asian studies.

Book Description
Ladakh was an independent western Tibetan kingdom until 1834. Having been closed to outsiders for many years, the authors were the first to enter the country. This work aims to be a testament to the richness and vigour of the Ladakh religion, culture and history. Ladakh existed as an independent western Tibetan kingdom until 1834, when it was taken by the rulers of Jammu and Kashmir. To this date it continues to be one the the few places where Tibetan Buddhism, culture and way of life have continued to flourish unimpeded and uncorrupted. Having been closed to outsiders

Book Description
Now considered a classic among readers interested in Tibetan Buddhism and pilgrimages of the spirit of all kinds, A Journey in Ladakh is Andrew Harvey's spiritual travelogue of his arduous journey to one of the most remote parts of the world--the highest, least populated region in India, cut off by snow for six months each year. Buddhists have meditated in the mountains of Ladakh since three centuries before Christ, and it is there that the purest form of Tibetan Buddhism is still practiced today.

Book Description
My Frozen Turbulence in Kashmir, the Twelfth Edition of which is now being released, is a land-mark publication. It narrates and analyses not only the tumultuous events of the author’s two terms of Governorship but also of subsequent developments which underline how a tragic blunder of truly historic proportion was committed by the power that be at the Union Government level by not seeing the warning signals hoisted by him. The updated Edition shows how the combined onslaught of subversive, separatists and pro-Pakistan elements was faced, particularly in the wake of Burhan Wani’s death. It also shows how the outrageous perfidies of the genre of Uri terror attack were dealt with by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and how a New Resolve was formulated by him with seven ingredients, viz: (I) Exposure of Pakistan at UN Assembly; (II) Boycott of 19th SAARC Summit; (III) Revisiting Indus Water Treaty and Most Favoured Nation Status; (IV) Surgical Strike; (V) Baring the Ugly Face of Pakistani Bred Terrorism At the Multilateral Forum of BRICS; (VI) Deeper Exposure of Pakistan at HEART of Asia-Afghanistan Conference; (VII) Highlighting the Continued Violations of Human Rights in Balochistan and PoK, and Countering Pakistan’s Diabolical Disinformation Campaign with Regard to Kashmir. Finally, the Edition assesses the promise, performance and potential of the new helmsman. It ends with the hope of emergence of a new pattern which is appeasement-free, terror-free, and in which the noblest strands and sinews of India’s cultural heritage of treating service to man as service to God are regenerated, from Kashmir to Kanyakumari, providing an illuminating avenue for reaching the goal of a mighty, enlightened and forward-looking India.
