Love Journey Delhi To Sydney

Love Journey Delhi to Sydney Sukhi is a middle class Sikh, falling in love for the first time. From the moment Neetu smiles at him in the temple during the festival of Diwali, he is smitten. She is beautiful, educated and modern, and in her last year of medical school. She is also a Jat, a land-owning elite of high status. Their sweet, Delhi romance soon develops into a deep love that neither can live without. Sukhi's meeting with Neetu's parents in the north ends with an ultimatum. Sukhi must prove himself worthy of Neetu and he has three years to show he will be able to support her in the style she has been brought up in. Despite his Master's degree, Sukhi cannot see how continuing his father's business in India will ever enable him to accomplish such a change in his living standards, so he makes the decision to move to Australia. Once he arrives in Australia, however, his priorities change. Sukhi becomes Sam and he is quickly seduced by the different lifestyle and enamoured by the casual, open people he meets, especially Sara, the eighteen year old sister of his colleague, Mark. Is Sukhi willing to break Neetu’s heart and the promises he made? Is Sukhi prepared to give up Australian life style and the love for Sara? Are Sukhi’s Parents willing to accept a new way of life in Australia and give up Neetu for a white Australian girl?

This is the first book to treat the impact of religious, philosophical and psychological traditions of the East on Western intellectuals, artists, travellers and spiritual seekers in the twentieth century. Addressed to both general readers and scholars of religion, it is especially valuable for its penetrating and inter-religious analysis of two of the most compelling themes now facing the world: the emergence of cross-cultural religious understanding of the natural order and ecological crisis and the metaphysical basis for both the formal diversity and essential unity of religious traditions of both East and West. The West has long romanticized the "mysterious" East, but it has, also, judged its traditions as "uncivilized." Our notions about Eastern spirituality have been formed by a succession of travellers, scientists, artists, intellectuals, poets, philosophers and missionaries, as well as by Eastern travellers who have spent time in the West. This book helps us to recognize the influence of Eastern ideas upon modern Western thought by tracing the history of engagements between East and West up until the present day. It concludes with a section that helps us to perceive the timeless value of the many Eastern contributions to the West's current intellectual and spiritual state.

Latika Bourke was adopted from India, aged eight months. Growing up in Bathurst, New South Wales she felt a deep connection to her Australian home and her Australian family. It wasn't until she heard her name uttered in the hit movie Slumdog Millionaire that Latika recognised she knew nothing of her Indian roots, the world she was born into and what she could have become had she not been brought to Australia as a baby. As Latika carved out a successful career for herself as an award-winning political journalist, she became more and more curious about her heritage and what it meant to be born in India and raised in Australia. And so began a deeply personal and sometimes confronting journey back to her birthplace to unravel the mysteries of her heritage. From India with Love is a beautiful story of finding your place in the world and finding peace with the path that led you there.
