The list "Hindi-Diamond" from Shailendra states this book originally published as two books: Jeevan Ki Khoj (जीवन की खोज) and Girah Hamara Sunn Mein (गिरह हमारा सुन्न में). However we have not a TOC of Jeevan-Amrit in order to check that and early editions of those two books.--DhyanAntar 05:19, 12 November 2018 (UTC)

Titles can be compared at the respective talk pages of JKK and Girah Hamara. The first four titles of JKK match up as of the time of this writing, but the last three are new, have not been seen before, so exciting new info!

For Girah Hamara, all titles match those in the audio version of Girah Hamara, except #2. There, there are actually two differences, the one in the last word is a minor, perhaps modernistic change in a diacritic, but the one in the first word is significant, actually negating it, making it something like "Darkness of Ignorance" instead of "Darkness of Wisdom". Perhaps the title in the audio version is meant to be paradoxical but was "corrected" by the Diamond editor. Or who knows? -- doofus-9 08:08, 29 December 2018 (UTC)
