Chanakya's Chant by Ashwin Sanghi
"ffs, who reads a novel to learn about something serious? I do not understand the IQ of people who started reading this NOVEL just by seeing the name Chankaya in it and imagined they would have 'information'! Ah! I enjoyed reading this novel and the subtle profundity with which Sanghi could be able to fuse two different narratives together... "

The Eternal Flame by Hywel Richard Pinto
"The novel has been an amazing experience for me... I literally read some pages with a glued interest that allowed me to explore many hidden sides of human lives... passion, determination, zeal, dedication, thirst for success, hunger for recognition and everything else accompanied by fear of failure. The novel is a title that can be shelved in the sports fiction genre... however, it has nothing less than a thriller. Enjoy it. Another subtle work by Hywel Richard Pinto. "

Autobiography of a Yogi by Paramahansa Yogananda
"Tell me anything better than this and I will read that quick! This was an amazing book, in fact, the most amazing one I have ever read. How the life moves and how we lean things in life are perfectly reflected in this great autobiography. You need to read this one of Yogananda ji to understand his life even better. "

Autobiography of a Yogi by Paramahansa Yogananda
"Pretext: There are some self-satisfied people in the reviews section who thought it better to belittle this book. You crazy ones, do you even know what an autobiography means? It means sharing one's experiences, life-lessons, episodes and whatever you lived. Why are people craving for this one to be a book on Yoga, spirituality and then crying like wolves when they find it full of wonders and surprises. How can you experience what the author experienced? Are you close enough to give yourself up to a world which is away of the confusions and connections that we have made today?

This book is a journey of Swami Paramhansa Yogananda Ji's life and his experiences. He writes about his beginnings, his Gurus, the wonders he saw and the wonders he experienced. Already transformed the lives of many, this book simply inspires one to begin to open for wonders in life - the wonders of joy. If you remain in your shell and not allow any miracle to happen, you will always be self-satisfied and in pain of your being. Life has become horrendous if we don't look for an out. At least reading this one will transport you to other dimensions for some time.

Post Script: I will only reply to sane comments."

This one is a fantastic novel based on sports... and surprisingly, this is based on Olympics dreams of a team of young women who participate in team gymnastics... not cricket or other popular stuff. And that's why I liked this story so much. It presents the story of Naima, a talented young girl with super athletic skills. Another one important in this novel is Subha Krishnamoorthy, the woman who coaches the team of athletes. The road to Paris Olympics 2024 after a dismal show and controversy in the 2020 Olympics seems unlikely and the team falls apart... an arduous effort is then taken by Naima and Subha and that's where the story shines... enjoy the good show of novel writing craft by the author. An inspiring story! ]]>
