Habit of regular reading can prove to be one of the best friends of any human being. And in my life so far, I have seen and met many such people (My two team members are one of the best examples of such people here) who have befriended reading religiously. When I say religiously, it has got nothing to do with conventional religion. To me, religion means some decided set of practices, disciplines and guidelines that becomes part of human habits and which – if followed regularly, could help keeping a human being active and full of life. Reading covers a very broad spectrum of resources; ranging from mythological scriptures, philosophy, natural sciences, medicine, economics, technology to sports, business, entertainment to anything, which basically can satisfy human interests.

On an average, many people who decide to learn reading, tend to spend some part of their lives for some ‘type of reading.’ But, it is this ‘type of reading’ that plays an important part in deciding the future paths for them. Any type of reading is good as long as it does not lead one to indulge into something, which can be termed commonly as, bad, or an evil. The battles between ‘good and evil’, ‘light and darkness’, ‘truth and untruth’ are older than our own existence. Verily, the question of ‘life and death’ has been so profound that its inception and contemplation dates back to thousands of years.

But hey! Why am I writing all these here? Well, because I feel that with ‘Vedic Learnings’, I wish to explore and share the possibilities of expanding the horizons of human knowledge, understanding and will. And I believe, that ‘Shrimad Bhagwad Geeta’ is one of those many literary resources, which unveils one of the highest philosophies for the ‘free human mind.’
