Book Review: The Search That Seeks You
The important fact to remember is that nobody can destroy the soul.Karma, a second year undergraduate student of an engineering college, is zealous and hardworking, and always happy. Following his mother's death and related course of events at home, he leaves home, get the chance to meet ascetics living in the Podhigai Hills of India and becomes enriched in spiritual knowledge that changes his outlook towards life forever. Karma learns about the essence of meditation as a tool for understanding and achieving balance in life, about death, sorrow, happiness, change, fear of the unknown, providing a thoughtful approach to deal with them, ultimately leading to self-discovery, enlightenment, and ultimately, eternal happiness.
Just going through the pages and following the story of Karma's life and enlightenment may not mean anything to the reader. Few situations may even sound absurd in our mundane familiar world. As the author notes,
But if one can place themselves in the situations of the main character, Karma, and then try to compare their reactions to his, one may understand a great deal more about themselves.Agreed. Written in very simple language, The Search That Seeks You is a thoughtful self help book that deserves to be in the reading list of all interested readers.

The iconic phrase that caught my reading is -"it is not possible to seek or feel God yet,you claim that God exists.I feel deceived by it" a well written story full of captivating incidents articulated very well.This young author has analysed life's situation and brings a solution mode through her book of spiritual knowledge teaching the wise techniques of Kriya... Thanks for the review.....
