The War Within - Between Good and Evil (Reconstructing Money, Morality and Mortality). (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The human has always prided himself as an exceptional 'moral species' but has always been haunted by two questions: 'Why am I not good when I want to be; 'why do I do bad when I don't want to'. This is at the heart of what scriptures and sages have long alluded to as the eternal internal struggle-between good and evil - that wages in the human consciousness.

The book posits that much of our confusion and angst stems from our inability to recognize the ramifications of this 'war' between two sides of our own 'self'. It is because we are ignoring this 'war' between two sides of our own 'self'. It is because we are ignoring this war that we are losing all other wars of the world. That ignorance is the primary source of all the horrors, malevolence, and violence that fill us with so much dread. But a 'favorable' outcome is possible only if the forces of goodness are aided to get an upper hand consistently - and that calls for two cathartic changes: consciousness-change by inducing a turn from the mind to the heart; and contextual-change, by radically reconstructing the roles of morality, money, and mortality in our everyday lives. The book offers a menu of insights and options we all can use to tilt the scales in the war waging inside each of us.

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.
