    done 18 months ago

    hmmm finished the book, its more like a story book. not thought provoking enough for me.
    I liked the “blank spaces” funda she talks about, how everyone is trying to fill the blank spaces in their lives by being busy.
    so true, my parents, inlaws, they are like that. they HAVE to be busy.
    me!! me – chilled out soul!! ( though some people call me lazy) I let my ego take a lil trip to Nth floor with this one :-D :-D

    paulo coelho 18 months ago

    I picked up witch of portebelo! tho paulo coelho is closer to romance /novel/ fiction genre than philosophy ( at least I dont think he is serious philosophy) He gives a lot of pointers towards sprituality and makes you think on those lines.
    he mentiones dance meditation in this book. I ve been meaning to try dance meditation since a long time ( my mum really loves dance meditation. I admire the her a lot, Most Indian ladies her age wouldnt ever be open minded enough to try this )

    just when u think u are taking a break… u start off on the goal! long live Murphy!!!!

    takin a break 18 months ago

    I am giving a break to philosophy. may be another 2 weeks or untill I figure out what to read next.( I have ekhart’s book in the pipe line) Sophies world was heavy, evn tho it was meant for teenagers.
    Osho didnt impress me much. too much criticism for some one who is enlightened. He advocates communes and contradicts himself every chapter! hmmm he’s not for me.

    finally finishing off, sophies world! Its a nice book, to get an overview of western philosophy.
    after this, I am keen to jump into eastern philosophy. Its really really old, all 3000 BC stuff and its still so cool!
    and then Kaballah and sufism.

    osho 19 months ago

    Got a book of osho, yet to get a hang of it. need to read mroe to actually comment on him.
    I like power of now, easy to follow and fits with what i have always been thinking.
    I have a feeling all philosophies finally say the same thing anyway…
