Philosophy

My recommendation: 9 / 10

Brief review: Krishnamurthy is one of my favorites. His talks are deep. He has given several discourses over his life, eventually culminating in several books. In this book, he suggests we reflect upon our lives and identify how much of it was chosen and how much was influenced by the society we live in. He says, 'the demand for more and more shows the inward poverty of man'. He gives his ideas on how to make our life more meaningful by freeing our lives from society's so-called norms and finding our true selves. Read it and you shall find a way to inner peace.
