Vedic literature is vast. But through millennia passing, much is lost. If a time machine can transport me to the Vedic age and let me read all the precious books which are no longer extant today, I would spend years studying and comparing with what has survived for a rich unearthing of the true makeup of Vedic thought. The ;latter is an extremely valuable treasure of innovative philosophical thinking about the world and I would love to be instrumental in bringing it out for the humanity to learn and benefit from it.

Brahma-samanvaya and Purana-parijata are two of the many books in Sanskrit that I plan to read. These are substantive works forming cornerstones of Vedic Philosophy which is a novel but comprehensive way of thinking about the world.
I have had more people putting pressure on me to write about Vedic Philoophy than about any other topic. I have the needed expertise in it and there is no good book accessible in English on the subject. These two books would prepare me more to be able to write a good relevant book than without them.

There are things in my life that I often think I should do, but I do not get to do them. Everyone probably has this issue in small or big measure. There are excuses to justify inaction. Anyway, this is a mystery in my life that is not easy to miss. Why? Why does this happen? The book I may want to write one day, again, whether I will be able to find time to do it (!), would explore possible reasons and causes from the spiritual perspective.
Many people want to tread a spiritual path but cannot get around to actually do it. One can blame the Devil or Satan for it. But a serious book would go deeper into the human psyche to fathom major alternatives in spiritual thought worldwide to share with the reading public. It would be interesting to compare different reasons for lethargy here. Briedly, it would be a useful book that goes into the mystery behind why people can't get to do what they often want to do.
