The Book of Life is a collection of the author's deep contemplation about self and society. Coming from a heart seeped in all-inclusive Hindu philosophy, this anthology of thoughtful essays aims to motivate the youth of India to look inward and transform themselves in order to become worthy citizens of India and the true inheritors of the rich legacy of our sages.
This collection of short and richly insightful thoughts is divided into sections based on themes that are very dear to the author's heart. The book does not follow the conventional 'step-by-step approach for transformation', which several commercial books in this genre adopt. Instead, it is designed in such a way that any page or essay, even randomly opened, will leave young readers with an enriched thought process and heightened awareness.
When we reject the negativity built into our subconscious lives by society, peers and the market around us, we feel inspired to explore and experience life in its fullness, with all its myriad wonders that reveal themselves to us if we remain open to see, listen, feel and imbibe the lessons of the universe. The lessons thus imbibed make us better versions of ourselves.
When we are enriched by the micro changes springing from our own self and our own hearts, we walk on the path of true success, conscious of the truths that we were hitherto unaware of.
Readers are encouraged to accept and love themselves and stay on the path to self-improvement, while, at the same time, nurturing empathy towards their surroundings.
Hinduism encourages us to think of our own selves as God (Aham Brahmasmi), the Brahman who is Sat, Chit and Ananda. Hence, this collection of essays, The Book of Life, is a soulful attempt to heighten our awareness about ourselves and the world around us and find elusive peace while being ourselves.
Do read this book and also urge every youngster you know to read it.
