Calendars in the Making investigates the Roman and medieval origins of several calendars we are most familiar with today, including the Christian liturgical calendar, the Islamic calendar, and the week as a standard method of dating and time reckoning.

‘Enlightening Stories’ is a collection of 74 stories culled from the Indian and other religious traditions. Geographically, they range from the jungles of India to the deserts of the Middle East and the hills of Italy; historically, from the Vedic period to the 20th century; culturally, from the Hindu, Buddhist, Sufi, and Christian traditions. Wide-ranging and eclectic, they reflect our rich heritage and illustrate the universality of spiritual truth. Compiled by Swami Vimohananda from Bengali title ‘Galpa Malika’ by Swami Chetanananda and other sources and published by Advaita Ashrama, a publication house of Ramakrishna Math, Belur Math. #AdvaitaAshrama #RKMathBelurMath
