A vast wealth of wisdom and culture comes from India: The Vedas, The Mahabhara, Kalidasa, Buddha, Upanishads, and so on. The historical connection between India and the Western World is vastly under-rated, yet obvious: Herodotus wrote commentaries on India's culture, Alexander knew there was something in India worth fighting for. There are hints of India's past in the story of Jesus, the works of Parminides, the philosophy of Heidegger (but then again, who didn't Heidegger plagiarize?).

Right now we have the complete texts of Kalidasa's Shakuntala and The Cloud Messenger.

We will always be adding to our own book collection, but one excellent online resource for books is at Project Gutenberg.

Enjoy!
