I
started highlighting/marking important ideas, Keywords and phrases that caught
my attention, while doing that, I almost marked every sentence. Its crisp, up
to the point, distilled insight fomenting your attention all through. Ultimately,
it leaves you feeling the thoughts of this Great Soul.
The
questions are simple, day to day dilemma’s a normal individual faces. Those
when asked and subsequently answered by the Author, it gains profundity. It has
really given clarity in thought & the thinking process. These booklets,
each of about 40-45 pages, are independent, dealing with the title topic. When
you read one after another, there is bound to be repetition. That will just
help in reminding and consolidating the point of view.
On
tricky issue of relationships, which is dynamic and subjective, the author has
delicately and appropriately handled issues of extramarital affairs &
divorces – unsatisfied life, envy of father-in-law, mother-in-law etc, he has
taken a very balanced approach, instead of taking popular trendy path,
stressing on the framework of thinking instead of being judgemental.
Some
random catchy phrases, pen & paper gives a direction to your thinking and
also keeps the mind focussed; Pleasure and Pain are the navigations of human
behaviour; Life is about forward progress & not backward regression; The
hater always suffers; Yesterday was over yesterday. This is the plan on which
life is built; Intimacy can be built in a relationship by being transparent; do
benchmark yourself with your value system; None can be all things to everybody;
bring about change in the conditioning of the person.
A
booklet of this size is not expected to deal with deeper issues comprehensively;
however, it is successful in connecting the superficial to the fundamental in
patches. Further, it stitches together all ages, relationships, lifestyle, work
issues, growth, evolution and finally the occult.
Somehow,
printer’s nightmares in the form of typo error have crept in, though sparingly.
Having
rated this as Top class, I had decided to relevantly gift some booklets on
respective occasions. However, though each booklet is independently readable,
they are not individually available.
Finally,
it appears the recent print is exhausting, leading to more demand and less
supply situation. This was apparent when, I tried ordering bulk copies – from
MRP of Rs 999, both Flipkart & Amazon zoomed it to Rs 1999. Not wanting to
fall for exploitation, I remained inactive; since then it was available for the
MRP on Flipkart. Now, it is out of stock.
Revised
reprints should be considered ASAP.
Though, I am still a
seeker and the author is the sought, while reviewing and submitting, I have
tried with effort not to be subjective
