Definitely interesting topics but after reading the online sample, I don't think this particular book is for me. Thank you for your review!

Having only read the sample rather than the book itself I have to wonder if there is ever an actual point made. The sample reads like a blurb, not the first chapter of a book. It's all hype and no data. Not the book for me. Reads like an infomercial, not the end product.

Usually I am not a fan of spiritual books. But by reading the descriptive review, I had a feeling that this one is quite a different book and better to give a try. Wishing to read soon. Congratulations on being BOTD

The book seems like a life changer. Who wouldn't want to read such a book, I am sure I will be a better person after reading it. Thank you for your review.

The review describes the book in some detail, although I notice that most of the review is a summary of the book. I thought that the review guidelines did not allow this and that only half of the review may describe the book. However, I enjoyed the review as it gave a comprehensive description of what the book entails. I think that readers who feel that they are in need of such guidance will certainly enjoy this book.

A religious self-help book? Definitely not my cup of tea.

This review explains in great detail the amazing insight this book has to offer. It sounds like it can help you understand more about spirituality and positive thinking, which seems like a helpful book for any.

I can’t work out if this is fiction or non fiction. I assume non. I’m afraid I am rather cynical of one book curing all the ills of the unicverse.

The book seems to be very educational and well organised. I like it that each chapter has a different topic which makes it easier for people to choose what they are more interested in. Besides the fact that the author gives summary at the end of each section will probably make it more appealing to a lot of people. Thanks for the review.

The book is so organized, and the author used the simple English such that every youth understands, as the main age category is the youth. The only that demoralized my mood while reading it is the paragraph where the author talked about meeting with some of the world leaders, in real life mysteries, world leaders are one of the reasons for such mysteries and suffering.

The author seems to want to incorporate good values to the lives of people and I have to agree with the author on certain points like that we have to teach children good values and that karma is not a punishment, just us reaping what we sow. I'm interested in reading about ayurvedic medicine, but religious books are not my cup of tea. So I won't be reading this book, but congratulations on making botd!

I found it enjoyable; especially chapter one, it revealed the secrets about life both spiritual aspect and physical aspect. Kudos to the writer.

I'm afraid that, while this review is very thorough, it hasn't moved me to give this book a try. The sample is short, but gives a clear indication of where the book is heading. and while I do appreciate a good self-help guide now and then, I think this one might lead me up the garden path. Sorry, but its not for me. Thanks anyway for the effort you have put into this review.

The secret of life is a must read book. It enlighten me about how we need to unit in our matters of faith so as to over come many ills in the world. Also the book talked about how one can develop spiritually to unveil the inner man. I really enjoyed reading the book. It is good for any human being.

While this book might appeal to others, it seems that it is not the book for me. Spirituality is a complex subject and would need quite some attention in order to gain even a little understanding of it. Congrats on BOTD.
