The Kalacakra Tantra was the last major Tantrik text written in India before the decline of Buddhism. The book has left indelible influence over different regions of Asia in last thousand years of its journey. Apart from the Vimalprabha commentary composed during the mid-11th century, there is no verse by verse commentary available to the general reader. Kumar has attempted translation of the full text from Sanskrit original and has also contributed a new detailed commentary. This book locates mysterious Sambhala and Oddiyana. The book further delves into the chronology of legendary Kalki kings.
The major areas of national concern that this compendium of fifteen essays exhaustively deals with are: the Indian Political System, the Indian Economy, Governance, Work Culture, Corruption, Education (General, Medical and Distance Education), Public Management, Corporate Social Responsibility and Water Management. While some of the authors have treated their subjects in their theoretical perspective, the others have delved deep into them empirically, studying them in all their different dimensions, analyzing the problems that afflict them and suggestion solution thereof. The book will hopefully receive the attention of both the lay reading public and serious students and researchers.
