So one of the most impactful, powerful books that I read is Ryan Holiday's Courage is Calling. So my lovely boyfriend suggested me. He is a bigger reader than I am, and he has a wonderful collection of library, wonderful collection of books in his library. So I stole that book from his library and I read it. And it was so powerful, so impactful. It taught me how to hold my ground and take a leap of faith and show extreme courage in the face of adversity

If I were to take a snippet of what it is. I would say that the first book itself, it started, like, on August 19. I received a frantic call from my older sister at just seven in the morning. Oh, my God, Sonia. She said if she had been punched in the stomach bruce died. What? I said

It was so compelling for me, maybe because my background of my Christian background also helped me a little bit more. But as far as even if that's not there also, I think it's a very compelling story of a woman to find herself when she's wounded and when she needs some rest. How do you do it? Like, I feel that this is a way of healing
Every time this book offers something new, people always talk about Bhagavad Gita. People chant bhagavad gita. But for me, Bhagavad Gita becomes meaningful only when you understand Mahabharata. Only when you understand the relationship dynamics of Krishna and Arjuna. Only when you understand why did Pandavas and Kauravas came to the battlefield and what is the relationship dynamics of them? Bhagavad Gita brings answer to your question only when you understand the question for which Krishna gave the answers. So Bhagavad Gita is basically a samvad of pathmadav

So this was one of my clients wherein I was helping this girl rather, I should say woman, and the methods, the modalities I suggested and the way I helped her in fact, we worked together for two years and she really found healing and a way out of the mess that she was in. So despite my good work, there were times when I get into the self doubt and I get into, I don't think I need to do this. I just want to give up, honestly

Also I can say that author provides examples and anecdotes from different cultures and traditions to describe or to illustrate how people have tapped into the power of Divine Matrix throughout history. The main or I can say the one key theme in the book is the idea that we are not separated from the world around us, but intimately connected to it. Brendan suggests that by understanding and harnessing the power of the Divine Matrix, we can transform our lives and create a more positive and fulfilling future

You while you asked for a book that has probably changed our lives. It it hit me of the fact that I've hardly read any book in totality. Different times, different books, tiny portions of it, and I've just forgotten more. And plus, I think I have an attention deficit disorder of some kind. I'm not able to focus on a particular thing for more than 30, 40 minutes or so
So apart from that, as you have already answered it, I would also like to add one more book which actually helped me to transform myself is The Life's Amazing Secrets which was written by Gaur Gopal Das. So that book actually represents what is true happiness, how we can actually lead a happy life, what is the true meaning of happiness through a couple. So he actually answers the questions of a couple through which we actually rightly understand what life is, what is needed in life and all

If you can have it in your mind, you could have it in your hand. And because of that book, I came to know about orators who were doing this for so many years, like Bob Proctor and Miss Gallagher. So I have been in touch with these kind of things from like 2018 or 19 and because of this book, it made me very much humble, calm, composed, serene in my opinions and it affected my nature as well
