Latest Book Review...

The latest book which i have read is this wonderful spiritual bestseller: The Autobiography of a Yogi....I started off in a very very casual note, literally skimming through the initial portions...And i really do not know at what point of time this book grabbed my undivided attention....The biggest irony is that this was the second time i was reading the book...The first time i read this was real long back,and probably that is the reason why i could not really construe what transpired in the mind of the author and fathom deeper into the "meaning" of the book...This time it was different-very different indeed...By dint of the knowledge gained from a few other books in the same domain,i was better equipped to relate stuffs and make sense out of it.. My moment of epipheny came pretty early on in the book...n it engulfed me in such a profound manner that i didn't care two hoots about the ensuing mid semester examination, which hung like a sword over my neck!!.....
I feel book is a must for anyone who's deeply fascinated by the self-realisation thing.....But it is actually much more than that--The distinctive feature than stands out like a beacon in this book is the author's quirky way of handling spiritual matters..FYI, this is one of the rare books of its kind where every ounce of thoughts was translated to words the the "yogi" himself...Now and then, there would be scientific evidences butressing the religious claims upheld in our age-old scriptures...Then again, it focussed on the unity of teaching between different religions and regions, and how the reality is nothing but a sheer confluence of the deeper meaning underlying these books......
After all, as it says, it boils down the same age old concept...now what is "that" concept?? huh, you gotta read it to know it.....:-)
