haven’t read this one. What’s it about?
read siddhartha….brilliant…the whole deep spiritual journey is impressive!
don’t know if you’ve read it already but i just found a rather good book titled “Lashkar” by Mukul Deva…..good read..its about the Delhi Bomb Blasts and the whole terror system
Thanks for the recos. Will check them out once the current list is whittled down!
If you haven’t already, you must read The Tao of Physics, Fritjof Capra
I haven’t already, so I will pick it up!
If you have read Siddhartha by Herman Hesse, try reading Demian. I read Siddhartha a long time ago and could not understand what Hesse was talking about. But Demian, I read about 2 months ago made a lot more sense.
Hey vamsi,
Good to see you here. Siddhartha did make sense to me and I liked it. I’ll add Demian to the to-do list!
