The book “Bhakti: A Journey of Soul Discovery” by Jennifer Duke is an intriguing story of how an atheist converted to believing in God. Her view of religion changed in a dramatic manner, which surpasses human thinking. As we are all on a path to self-realisation, Jennifer pens down her thoughts and experiences from her journey in an undiluted way.

The book is divided into fourteen chapters, each with a simple and unique heading. Some of the author’s thoughts are written in the form of a journal, with subsequent date entries. I loved reading the part in her letters to Fran about intuition and how to differentiate it from thinking. The author’s drastic transformative life experiences give answers to questions she previously had concerning spirituality.

I found it pleasant to read about the author’s spiritual path, which is an inspiration to me. I love the part where the author experienced an energy explosion on her eighth day in Peru. In this book, I learned we are one and made of the same loving energy. The author highlights the importance of meditation, which is an integral path to happiness.

There was nothing to dislike about this book. The author uses an easy conversational tone to relate to the readers. I got to understand the concept of calmness and seclusion better. Again, I learned about Hong Sau and would love to try it out.

I only found a few errors in the book, which did not disrupt my reading in any way. This makes it professionally edited. I rate it 5 out of 5 stars, as there’s no justification to reduce its rating whatsoever. This book is highly recommended to those who seek calmness through deep focus and meditation. Again, if you’d love to learn more about prayer, healing, spirituality, and self-realisation, then this book is for you.

This is a very interesting book. Atheists are very strong and confident about their unbelief in God. I am looking forward to reading this book to find out what made an atheist begin to believe in God.

Ypur review had me at "atheist converted to believing in God." Mid-way, I just knew I had to add to my bookshelf of books to read. I can't wait. I love the fact that the author is writting about her own experience and I am curious to find out what she experienced. To hear it from her mouth, so to speak. Thank you for your lovely description of the book.

One thing I've learned about Atheists is that they have several reasons for not believing in God. So what was Jennifer's reason? Why did she change her belief?

An Atheist that started believing in God sounds interesting. I know those people to be too set on their ideas. So it'll be interesting to find out how this one changed and started believing in God.

This book is incredibly fascinating. Atheists are fiercely and self-assured in their rejection of divine existence. I'm excited to read this book and see what led an agnostic to start believing in God.
