BOOK REVIEW OF AKSARA BHAGVAD GITA

DESCRIPTION

How were the rules framed? They were framed based on the parameters. How was Parameter identified and on what authority? Parameters were identified based on the attributes of the Gita. The authority too is derived from God/Gita. Isn’t the identification process obsolete and unscientific? There isn’t anything more scientific than the Gita. Just see the explosion of Artificial intelligence applications, be it Drones, Siri, Echo, or Robots. They are all non-human but endowed with intelligence.

MY REVIEW:

Books are a treat for Book- lovers, however not all love mythologies. But, I recently went through a mythology and it blew my mind.

Picked up from the concept of the Bhagvad Gita, Aksara Bhagvad Gita is much more than the traditional narrative style used to decipher culture, values etc. It actually has the audacity to bind you to it.

Not at all restricted to the religious aspects of Hindu mythology, this book sets out to define a completely different parameter of religion, race, creed, customs and traditions. The plot, characters might be same but the way the story has been drafted is very unique in itself.

The characters described in this book relate to the real-life experiences and environment around us, pretty well which is why it gives an opportunity to the readers to grasp the truest essence of what Gita is all about.

The narration style, titles, vocabulary usage is appropriate. It envisages truth and simplicity and it's importance in a person's life. I would gladly rate it 5/5 and would recommend all the readers to give it a read.

You can grab this book from Amazon in both Kindle and Paperback edition:https://www.amazon.in/dp/B08TCCLVP8?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

Book review, Mythological Monologues

DESCRIPTION How did Ahalya feel when Sage Gautam cursed her to be a stone? How did Eklavya feel when Dronacharya asked for his right thumb as his Guru Dakshina? How did Karna feel when he learned he was the brother of the Pandavas before the Kurukshetra war? How did Draupadi go through the various trials and tribulations of her life? What was her anchor? How did Arjuna feel after being enlightened by Lord Krishna on the battlefield of Kurukshetra? The friendship of Sudama, the love of Radha, the longing of Rukmini, the devotion of Shabari, the compassion of Sita, and the revenge of Shikhandi also find a place in this book of dramatic monologues. Embark on this fascinating journey inside the minds of iconic characters of Ramayana and Mahabharata. Listen closely to their voices and dive deep into their hearts. Maybe, you will find yourself in some of them. MY REVIEW Being an avid reader, I am a person who is ever keen at searching out good books and reading them. So recently, I came ac
