Whatever it takes...' sounds like an overused phrase, once we become familiar with the life story of Navin Gulia, an adventurer, writer and social worker, as it dawns on us that he's a genuine field-example of the phrase. His is a story of grit and determination, meticulousness and discipline, love and compassion. Above all, he stands out as an individual who has the ability and willingness (And, this is very important!) to inspire millions. 'Antima Geluvina Bennu Hatti...', is a narration of this inspiring story and the narrator is none other than the man himself! Yes, it is Navin Gulia's autobiography, 'In Quest of the Last Victory' (originally published by Pearson Education), presented in Kannada (translated by Anuradha K R). The central theme of the book revolves around his enduring efforts that enabled him to post a victory that he considers as the most important victory in his life. He's a man, worthy of emulation and has been the recipient of President's "National Role Model Award - 2007." The fact that he received it from one of the greatest role models India has ever had, Dr. Abdul Kalam, makes it even more special. To know why he considers his victory as the Antima / Last victory, turn the pages of the book...

Life is continuity, with the genes we inherited from our ancestors hundreds of thousands of years ago. Death is not the end of life but a break for life to rejuvenate itself. Life and nature are symbiotic. Our actions should not be in conflict with the laws of nature, which is part of the larger cosmos; else, it will be destructive to life.We cannot be happy by pursuing our objectives for narrow, personal gains. Pleasures that are physical provide only transitory happiness. Lasting happiness is mental-when our actions are for the general good and appreciated by others and when our inner self feels contented. This can happen when our conduct is morally right and we live a life of moderation, avoiding excesses.We have opted for democracy as it provides for rule by the people and for its commitment to protection of human rights, but powerhungry politicians have become despots, repressing the rights of the people. Similarly, the free market has widened the gap between those who own the means of production and the employees, leading to concentration of wealth which creates inequalities and exploitation of the weak. We have to be not only eternally vigilant but also take advantage of the opportunities offered by emerging technologies to banish poverty, which is a blot on humanity in modern times.

This collection of short stories is my first humble offering as a writer. The book contains a fictional story called 'The Jinx' All the other stories are autobiographical. It is my earnest hope that readers may relate to them and enjoy them just as I enjoyed recounting my experiences. If that happens, even partially, my purpose will be served.

Somewhere along the way, he discovers what it means to be a "grown up."

When was the last time a poem impressed you? High school? Not even then I suppose. Well, this is because of how poetry is put across to our minds. The story might be so beautiful, but the way it is being conveyed, not quite so.To me a poem is a piece of art and like every good piece of art, it should be appreciated not only by the artist, but by everyone who surrounds the artist as well.This book contains 15 poems that can be read over a nice hot cup of coffee. They talk about the simplest of things in the most elegant and "poetic" way possible. These poems are open to interpretation and I have mainly just explained my motive behind them and not the summary exactly. I assure you, you will find them relatable and some of them, quite personal. Enjoy.

Seldom has it happened that you come across a book like this with the potential to rewrite history and content to put an end to centuries of speculation regarding the composition and resting place of the Holy Grail. This book could do just that. Camelot Palace, Isle of Avalon, King Arthur, Knights of the Round Table and so much more feature in this book, to be revealed in an entertaining fashion. The Holy Grail is not what people think it is, it is even more spectacular than imagined when seen in all its glory. Likewise, Camelot has an aura about it to give a magical presence. This is a most fascinating story confirming that the Grail Romances are not myths, but detailed excerpts from history. A revolutionary concept of Earth Sciences is applied to determine where Camelot sat and to give other astonishing conclusions regarding related sites. Such a technique could be further used on other historic mysteries to locate treasures.
