a brief summary in the end would have worked wonders.. or much more consolidated view on any one aspect of Ganesha in different regions, veds, puranas would have made this an joyful ride.. some more deeper understanding on few facet of Ganesha would had made this interesting.. even if it would be the author's thought on how it would mean spiritually.. after listening to my Gita.. given compilation work was just average from the set standards.. this truly was like some random thoughts on Ganesha..

This special omnibus edition brings together two best-selling books by Devdutt Pattanaik, India’s most famous and renowned mythologist. My Gita and My Hanuman Chalisa are part of a series where Devdutt does ‘darshan’ of the scriptures, not just gods, and helps listeners navigate through scriptures that seem forbidding (Bhagavad Gita) and simple ones whose sophistication is often overlooked (Hanuman Chalisa).

It opens a new realm altogether in understanding Gita.. best version read as not dictated in synchronous format which worked wonders... so many dots joined from other texts which helped understanding on how karmic cycle worked...
part 2 : Hanuman chalisa was also worth understanding.. author have tried to give more deep perspective .. huge respect for the author.. m a fanboy now of this particular book

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 387
The author Sri "M" is an extraordinary individual. His uniqueness lies not only in the fact that at the young age of 19 and a half, he travelled to snow-clad Himalayas from Kerala, and there he met and lived for several years with a "real-time" yogi, Babaji, but also that he should undertake such an unusual and adventurous exploration, given his non-Hindu birth and antecedents. The metamorphosis of Mumtaz Ali Khan into Sri "M", a yogi with profound knowledge of the Upanishads and deep personal insights, is born of first-hand experiences with higher levels of consciousness....

Feeling trapped by unwanted thoughts and emotions can seem an inevitable part of life. But Eknath Easwaran, who taught meditation for 40 years, teaches us a way to break free. Just as a fitness routine can create a strong, supple body, spiritual disciplines can shape a secure personality and a resilient, loving mind. Easwaran takes the timeless teachings of the Buddha and other mystics and tells how we can train the mind not just during meditation but throughout the day.

Should read the given book atleast once if you want to get a glimpse of what and hows of mediation... and if you want to be a serious meditator one should re start again absorbing one chapter every week.. and start applying the advise/suggestions accordingly with it.. thanks.. and good luck in your pursuit... :)

a deeply enlightening book
Reviewed: 12-04-20
books have a very deep nuances the question asked are very relevant... but i found it very hard to complete the book as found it too long and tedious read.. the narration could have been more on a lighter note... though i know its a serious read book...
