Circa 800 BC: Merit or birth? Meritocracy or dynastic monarchy? King Sarthak of the mighty kingdom of Manukeshwar faces this great dilemma in naming his successor. The contenders to the throne are the upright and virtuous Kanishka, son of a learned Rishi, and his own firstborn, the selfish and arrogant Prince Jaivant. Breaking centuries of oppressive tradition, the King names the valorous commoner as heir. Humiliated and aggrieved, Jaivant bides his time. Using age-old deceit and treachery, he succeeds in usurping the throne. But he does not anticipate the resolve of the ascetic warrior. The stage is set for a mighty struggle. Through an interlinked web of events and emotion, through love, envy, deceit and romance, the book tells the story of a crusade to restore dharma in a kingdom afflicted by despotic dynastic rule. Sattva Rajas Tamas is the story of powerful opposing forces. It is also the tale of a man’s remarkable resolve to keep fighting for truth and justice, to never give up. The ancient tale has disconcerting parallels in our modern times. Though the times have changed, the conflict between dharma and adharma has not.

The scientific study of the mind and behavior is called psychology. The study of conscious and unconscious events, such as emotions and thoughts, is included in psychology. It is a field of study that bridges the natural and social sciences and has a huge scope. Psychologists are interested in learning about the brain's emergent features, which connects psychology to neuroscience. Psychologists seek to comprehend both individual and community behavior in their roles as social scientists. Science is frequently associated with the first letter of the Greek word psyche, from whence the term psychology is derived (see below). A psychologist is a trained expert in the field or a researcher who works in it. Some psychologists can be categorized as cognitive or behavioral scientists. Some psychologists make an effort to comprehend how mental processes affect both individual and group behavior. Others investigate the physiological and neurological mechanisms behind the actions and behaviors of the brain. Research on perception, cognition, attention, emotion, intelligence, subjective experiences, motivation, brain function, and personality is conducted by psychologists. Interpersonal interactions, psychological resilience, family resilience, and other social psychology-related topics are all of interest to psychologists. They also take the unconscious mind into account. To infer causal and correlation links between psychosocial variables, research psychologists use empirical methodologies. Clinical and counseling psychologists use symbolic interpretation to some extent, but not always.
