Book -The Thousand Splendid Suns

The Thousand Splendid Suns

- Khaled Hossein

I once again want to thank my colleague for giving me nicest books to read,

This book is based on the backdrop of disturbed Afghanistan. The story revolves in the era of Pre-Taliban period, Taliban dominated Afganistan period & current states i.e. US invaded times.

The story has two main characters Mariam & Laila.

Mariam born with a harami tag, suffers all types of known pains during her life. There is hardly any moment when she is really happy. Her happy moments are the moments she accepted as happy moments but as such there is no joy in her life. I really felt sorry for her character. God has given her choicest problems to suffer in her entire life.

Laila also get in troubled times but her life do not start with bad things. She had education, lover, loving father & determination. She also tastes pain, as she was a woman living in Afganistan in taliban dominance.

The destiny holds the premises where both find anger & ultimately solace with each other.

It is true that in war, whoever wins but “WOMEN” always loose. However when war is within the country, not only WOMEN but children also loose.

The story is very neatly told & at times tastes your ability to digest pains.

The story is very gripping & it was very hard for me to leave the book down.

Once I started reading book, I was always wondered how it will end. The end is very good & shows hope for future.

I like the book & concept,

With love,

Book - “KNOW THYSELF”

“KNOW THYSELF”
by Shri G. K. Pradhan

Some of the books are prized possessions. Know Thyself is one of such book. I really enjoy the reading of this book & I must confess that I will not part away with this book (if that is not possible then I will buy new one).

The book start with train journey, of 6 different persons from Delhi to Mumbai. The six persons were one lawyer (author), businessman, Professor, Principal (lady), Father (Christian Priest) & Swamiji.

Swamji, the enlightened soul, preaches on various subjects, clear doubts on various universal problems of fellow passengers. Their journey towards self-realization does not end with the train journey. They meet again for further teachings from Swamji.

The main core or thought of the book is the title itself.

Swamiji emphasized, on understanding “oneself”, instead of following any religion, guru or japp, procedures etc.

I am proud to admit that I could not get 1% of the book. We have to read between the lines to understand the message. I know I am not at stage to understand the smallest point of the great thoughts. Still I feel somewhere in my heart I got some hint. I am sure that over a period when I become more mature / aware I could at least understand some part.

It is must read for all, it is beneficial & thought provoking.

Tejasvi Man – Mahashakti Bharat ki Nivn

Tejasvi Man – Mahashakti Bharat ki Nivn

Author – Dr. A. P. J. Abdul Kalam
Hindi Transalation : - Shri Arun Tiwari

I am lucky that I am living in the era where Dr. A. P. J. Abdul Kalam, can share his thoughts, visions & guide us for betterment of ourselves & our country.

Long back I have read one book authored by Dr. A. P. J. Abdul Kalam, “Agni Pankh” & recently I have read (in Hindi) “Tejasvi Man – Mahashakti Bharat Ki Nivn”.

The book “Tejasvi Mann” is honest attempt of author to guide the young generation of our country to make our India, Developed nation by 2020. The book is dedicted to 12th standard girl Snehal Thakkar, who has raised the fundamental question of “who is our enemy?”.

The book comprises of various experiences of author, his thoughts with relation to education, religion, politics, our strength, challenges ahead & our ability to realize the goal.

I am too little a person to comment about this book. However I believe that I can write my feelings that occurred to me while reading the book.

With due respect to his writing & intentions, I feel somewhere the message is lost. The message is not clear, the book is missing something may be a link between the chapters. Too much subjects are attempted & does not ended with its impact. It may possible that the book is originally written in English & whilst translated in Hindi, somewhere get out of the track. I do not intend find any fault with translation but I still feel that the book is lacking its impact.

I may be wrong & dumb enough to comprehend the book, but this is what I felt,

Oh, last but not the least, I would like to read following books, listed by author as references: -
