India that is Bharat J Sai Deepak
India, That Is Bharat, the first book of a comprehensive trilogy, explores the influence of European 'colonial consciousness' (or 'coloniality'), in particular its religious and racial roots, on Bharat as the successor state to the Indic civilisation and the origins of the Indian Constitution. It lays the foundation for its sequels by covering the period between the Age of Discovery, marked by Christopher Columbus' expedition in 1492, and the reshaping of Bharat through a British-made constitution-the Government of India Act of 1919. This includes international developments leading to the founding of the League of Nations by Western powers that tangibly impacted this journey.Further, this work also traces the origins of seemingly universal constructs such as 'toleration', 'secularism' and 'humanism' to Christian political theology. Their subsequent role in subverting the indigenous Indic consciousness through a secularised and universalised Reformation, that is, constitutionalism, is examined. It also puts forth the concept of Middle Eastern coloniality, which preceded its European variant and allies with it in the context of Bharat to advance their shared antipathy towards the Indic worldview. In order to liberate Bharat's distinctive indigeneity, 'decoloniality' is presented as a civilisational imperative in the spheres of nature, religion, culture, history, education, language and, crucially, in the realm of constitutionalism.

Copycat marketing 101
About 95 percent of workers in industrialized countries are employees, make less than $40,000 per year, and save about $2,000 per year. At first glance, these figures may look pretty impressive, especially to people who make less than $40,000. But the truth is, 95 percent of the people in this world aren't getting ahead they're just getting by.Just look at the financial condition of the "average" U.S. citizen at age 65: 36 percent are dead, 54 percent are broke or dependent on others, 5 percent are still working, 4 percent are financially independent, and 1 percent are wealthy. Only 5 percent are financially well off!If you had the opportunity to become a 5%-er, would you take advantage of it? If your answer is "yes," read on, because that's what this book is about.Copycat Marketing 101 will make you aware that most people are 95%-ers because they've been taught to copy people who are in jobs that mean salary caps and financial dependence. In short, most people are copycatting the wrong plan!In this book, you'll learn that the current system most people copycat is designed to create temporary income not true wealth because it's based on linear growth of trading time for dollars. You'll learn that the key to true wealth is leverage, and you will learn about a dynamic form of leverage that wealthy people have been copying for centuries called exponential growth.Best of all, you'll learn how average people can break out of the time-for-money trap by copycatting a simple, duplicatable system of wealth creation that will open the door to financial freedom, once and for all!
