Book Review- Myth=Mithya : A Handbook of Hindu Mythology by Dr. Devdutt Pattanaik

How many of you are Hindus and still know very less about the Hinduism and its history, moral values and many more things?

(I think everyone has Hindu Blood. We know the dates when all the other religion started to nourish themselves. But nobody know the date when Hindu religion started. This means that the ancestors of every human were Hindus.)

If you are one of those people who know very less and want to know more about the Hinduism then this is the book for you.

Dr. Devdutt Pattanaik did a brilliant job in writing this great book. He definitely deserve a standing ovation for doing this. He researched well and put the most important stories of history.

There are three chapters in the book which talks about Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva and their wives.

The relation between the three Gods and the Goddesses can open the gates of enlightenment.

The Difference between God and gods is well explained. The gods are only to sustain the life cycle. They don't get Moksha. Humans are the one for whom the moksha is eveything. The world pleasures are also for the Humans.

The Goddess and her different forms has a story. You must read them.

But this book doesn't answer the questions like - Why do we exist? Who created God? Why God created this world? and many more.

This is not a negative point of this book. No Book and I mean NO BOOK can answer those questions.

I don't have anything bad to say  about this book. No a single word.

I can't rate this book. I am not  qualified enough to rate this GREAT BOOK.

Book Review : Now That You're Rich . . . Let's Fall In Love by Durjoy Datta, Maanvi Ahuja

Total Reading Hours: Not more than 12 hours.

My Ratings: 6/10

This is second book of the series by Durjoy Datta.

The story is about the four friends - Abhi, Shruti, Saurav and Garima.

They are from different cities and with different family backgrounds but one thing is common between them. All of them are loosers in love.

Abhi fell in love with a girl who love someone else. Shruti loved a boy who is not liked by her family because he's poor and they needed money. Saurav is rich, smart, IITian but nevere got loved. Garima - cheated by her boyfriend.

They all got a high paying job in college recruitment and they all land in Banglore and lot of thing happen after that.

They all find it very difficult to work from 9 to 9 - lot of work, less sleep, no parties. Only Sundays to have a complete sleep and to watch movies and do parties.

But as they are getting started to enjoy this they got parted into two groups. Abhi & Shruti allocated under Deb while Garima & Saurav allocated under Avantika (if you want to know about Deb & Avantika read the first book of the series). It is when Abhi & Garima realize what they think of each other.

But the recession hits and people got fired. This was the time when they learn a lot about their bosses and their secrets. They all fought with each other due to lot of misunderstandings.

Did they meet again? Did the keep their friendships alive in recession? What they did in the end?

Just read this book to know the answers. It is just an amazing story and you can't put it down until you finish it.
