"Sanllorente's story, reminiscent of Greg Mortenson's Three Cups of Tea, is remarkable and uplifting."—Booklist In 2003, Jaume Sanllorente was a young journalist leading an active and exciting life in Barcelona—no more idealistic than any other young professional. Then a travel agent convinced him to spend his vacation in India. Amazed by what he saw in the land of sacred cows and shocking poverty, Jaume was transformed. That experience lead him to reconsider the world he lived in and caused him to think that he might do something to make it a little better. He devoted himself to helping a small orphanage in Bombay, one that was about to close its doors and send its forty children back to the streets (and the brothels) from which they had been rescued. Jaume seized the moment, determined not to let that happen. As a consequence, he changed his life, and much more as well. In Bombay Smiles, Jaume Sanllorente gives us an insightful and loving vision of a country of great contrasts. He reveals that the secret of his own happiness is in seeking happiness for others. Bombay Smiles is a story of loneliness, ransoms, dangers, injustices, threats of death, and acts of courage, which give an example to follow in spite of the adversities one might meet. It is a lesson of wise love, surrender, sacrifice, and hope, which invites us to start on the path toward a better world.

A person endowed with a sense of humor has an inner 'richness' for it often brings incidental smiles on his face. No potion, no beauty aid, no pencils and brushes can embellish a human face as the pleasant mark of an oft- worn smile does. A testy, tetchy, irascible or cantankerous person gets on his face easily discernible, disagreeable telltale clues that give him away even to his casual interlocutor. A person can smile, laugh, cut jokes or find humor only if his mind is somewhat liberated, he is not overly bogged down with every-day-cares, neither is he too self-conscious to be always self-involved. To find humor or even to fully appreciate it, it is imperative to keep some channel of mind 'open' to be ready to catch the subtle strands of others and one's own thoughts and actions. Similar is the case with Harmohan Chhibber who discovers humor where there appears none to a casual eye. Laugh and the world laughs with you. Smile and the world smiles. A smiling face indicates an affinity, a bond, a link and a companionship of the voyage of life on this floating planet. A smiling face is cynosure of all eyes. Friends in office, social circle or wherever they are cluster him or her. One who wears a smile on his face spreads sunshine and reflects a positive attitude. Harmohan Chhibber rightly exhorts his readers; ''you are not dressed for the day unless you wear a smile''. Even a casual perusal of an anecdotal narrative contained in 'incidental smiles' will convince a reader that Harmohan Chhibber can 'smell' or perceive humor instinctively. So hitch you wagon to 'Incidental Smiles' and enjoy its inherent bliss. Smile is an apparel of jovial heart and it can be therapeutic in its effect, it is also spiritual in content, it is mysterious Midas touch, an alchemy that turns every metal into gold. Smile is a 'mantra' for success and bliss. It ensures facial uplift and cheerfulness. Smile is antidote to melancholy. They say 'act young and you feel young' so wear a smile on your face and be happy. A smile can bridge the abyss between tantalizing bless and abject dejection, between friendliness and schizophrenic one-up-man ship. A beauty lies in the eye of the beholder, so dose humor lie in the mind of the humorist. Mark Twain would find humor where none exists for others. When a high dignitary-the next speaker sitting beside him commented rather presumptuously that it appeared he would be talking over the heads of the audience. Twain took the wind out of the dignitary by saying 'feel easy, they don't listen'. in case when in an 'Old boys 'meet in an institution, a dignitary in visitors' book wrote, "I am what I am due to the institution". The person following him scribbled below it, "Why blame the institution?" When a legal luminary was a student, his teacher not being satisfied with his answer in the law class at Mumbai asked him where he had his schooling. On being told that it was at Shimla, the teacher said, "Why go so far to learn so little." It is apparent that in all the above incidents there initially appears to no point of humor but a person endowed with a sense of humor will discover it to the pleasant surprise of his company. Similar is the case with Harmohan Chhibber who discovers humor where there appears none to a causal eye. Prof. P. L. Bhola

En el año 2003 Jaume Sanllorente es un joven periodista con una vida exitosa en Barcelona. Un buen día, una agencia de viajes le convence para pasar sus vacaciones en la India. Jaume queda impactado en aquel primer viaje al país de las vacas sagradas, en especial por la pobreza desgarradora que contempla en sus calles. Numerosas casualidades y hechos propiciados por el azar llevan a Jaume a tomar conciencia del mundo en el que vive y a pensar que puede hacer algo por arreglarlo. Tras conocer un pequeño orfanato en Bombay que va a cerrar sus puertas, con sus cuarenta niños a punto de volver a los prostíbulos de la ciudad, Jaume toma la decisión que cambiará el resto de su vida. Y, como consecuencia, la de muchos más. Sobre las aceras de Bombay está escrito su Destino. En Sonrisas de Bombay. El viaje que cambió mi destino Jaume nos descubre, a través de su cuidado relato y su visión amorosa, las realidades de un país de grandes contrastes y nos desvela el secreto para ser más felices buscando la dicha de los demás. Una historia de soledades, rescates, peligros, injusticias, amenazas de muerte y superaciones, que nos proporciona un ejemplo para seguir adelante a pesar de las adversidades. Una lección de amor sabio, entrega, sacrificio y esperanza que nos invita a recorrer el camino hacia un mundo mejor.

La India de las más valientes ¿Sabías que en la India hay muchas niñas que no tienen acceso a la educación? ¿O que el 40 % de los matrimonios infantiles se celebran en este territorio? Incluso, con frecuencia, las familias con pocos recursos sienten desilusión y rechazo cuando nace una hija. Durante los más de trece años que Jaume Sanllorente se ha dedicado a la lucha pacífica contra la pobreza en Bombay, ha sido testigo de la discriminación que sufren las mujeres en la India. Sin embargo, también ha podido ver la enorme valentía y aplomo de una gran cantidad de mujeres que, cuando se les ha dado una oportunidad, han sido capaces de derribar muros y conseguir lo que se han propuesto en una sociedad que las relega a ser ciudadanas de tercera. Mujeres de Bombay es un relato tan sorprendente como inspirador, que nos descubre el verdadero significado de la entrega, el sacrificio, el valor, el trabajo y la esperanza.
