For J2SE/Core:
I dont have a particular preference but in general its not the book but how you use the knowledge that matters. Goto a University's website and get links to their Java course (any prestigious University should do). Do all their assignments. Use your book as a reference. Google is of great help too.
J2EE:
It is lot harder to find a good J2EE book. Usually some books focus more on some technologies and leave others out altogether. Best source for information would be Suns documentation online. Again, it is up to you to figure out how to implement it. I would suggest you create a mock mini project of your own and build up on it. Start out with a simple shopping cart project (using Servlets and JSPs). Later on you can add various technologies as you learn about em like EJB's, Webservices, JDBC, AJAX etc. If you've got time learn about various J2EE "frameworks" like Struts, Spring and Hibernate too. Get free versions of eclipse, apache tomcat and weblogic to set up your workbench and application server to deploy your code in.
Best of luck!
PS. Or join an Indian consultancy. DONT sign any documents before hand. If you dont wanna work for em after the training tell them you are going back to Nepal or whatever.
