My current book read : "The monk who sold his ferrari " - 1

I’m currently reading this book “the monk who sold his Ferrari”. Some one had told me few months ago that this book was not worth spending time. So the copy has been sitting and being ignored as untouchable.

But to get some break from my learning of financial operations and in general life, I just opened the book. Wallah, for me book has become an addiction. I’m reading hoping to finish this book in one week. This one week is after 12/day job & the commute+ 4/5 hours/day family. So I’m hoping to spend every hour I can on this book.

I must have read about 60/70 pages in a day and so far the books has been surprisingly no-nonsense, easy for anyone to relate and a different approach of teaching some basic Indian philosophical lessons.

The book so far speaks about Julian – the lawyer turned monk’s journey to India and some of his experiences in Sivanas. Talks about few techniques of mind control
try to remove as many or all bad thoughts
watch for 10-20 minutes a day rose technique
spend 10 minutes a day on the daily retrospection + tomorrows betterment thinking

These are really powerful yet simple and simply put techniques for removing clutter out of the mind.

A good book so far … :-)
