About the Book:-
Eternal Bhārat describes India's civilizational engagement with the eternal and how this led to amazing insights into the nature of reality; insights, which got mapped into Bhārat’s art and culture—across literature, theatre, music, dance, painting and architecture, and much more. Exploring consciousness via three aspects of will, knowledge and action, Bhāratiya art and culture essayed how life is meant to be lived to the fullest in the domains of ambition and desire, even while staying within the guardrails of ethics and morality, and freedom and renunciation.
Subhash Kak is professor at Oklahoma State University in Stillwater. He has authored twenty-five books, of which the most recent was The Idea of India: Bharat as a Civilisation. Since 2018, he has been a member of the Indian Prime Minister's Science, Technology, and Innovation Advisory Council.

"This book offers a bridge to profound concepts, inviting readers of all ages, particularly the youth, to explore and understand the depths of Hindu thought in the context of the modern world.'
—Hari Vadlamani
Founder, INDICA
"Quoting extensively from Upanishadic, Vedic and other texts, Subhash-ji explains the Indic view of the nature of consciousness, a question of urgent interest today as many debate whether artificial intelligences can ever become conscious."
