Prime Minister Narendra Modi gifts handcrafted bookends to UK PM

Prime Minister Narendra Modi today presented British Prime Minister David Cameron a specially handcrafted pair of bookends made of wood, marble and silver. The centerpiece of each of these bookends is a silver bell, an object of rich symbolism relating to inner wisdom and tidings, which has a verse from the Bhagavad Gita etched in Sanskrit, along with its English meaning along the inside rim. Taken from the Bhagavad Gita, these verses describe the ultimate underlying reality.
