The God Factor - For Success and Contentment


About the book:
Sometime I pass through a highway, connecting my city with other cities. There is a house by the side of that highway – house of a rich person. I have seen near about twenty cars standing there. The family of that rich person is small. A small family with only three members, and yet, they have so many cars of their own. Sometimes I think, what is the purpose of acquiring so many cars for such a small family? But I can understand somehow that the need is social. The need is of that perception, which says to him that the more cars he possess the more he is socially accepted; the richer he is believed to be. He wants to show that he is rich and he is showing through his cars. 

I have heard about a beautiful dead body. And, that was of Alexander the Great. But what was beautiful about his dead body? It was his ability to give a message to this world, through his body. And, the message was great. The message was his whole learning; what he had learnt through his life. That is why even his dead body was beautiful – it contained a beautiful message. 

When Alexander the Great was dying; he realized that now there is no way to survive. He was certain about his death. So, he called his ministers and told them that during his last journey, the journey to cremation ground, both of his hands should be kept open. So that, people could see that even a person like him; even Alexander the Great is leaving this world empty handed, with nothing to acquire; not a single penny.
He realized in his last days that he wasted his life: wasted just in accumulating lands, in accumulating wealth. But finally he was going, he has to go and he could carry nothing with him. He was going; acquiring nothing for which he had fought so many wars with so much bloodshed. 



Review:
The motivational Guru Author Nitin Srivastava has pondered upon a very subtle topic; his new write-up "god factor for success" takes us to a trans and asks us to dig upon exact meaning of motivation and spirituality. He has presented his believes in a very discreet and profound way, they are both scientific and religious. The book allows you to understand the reality about success and methods to convert failures into success..

God factor has a story described as “Alexander-the great, realized in his last days that he wasted his life: wasted just in accumulating lands, in accumulating wealth. But finally he was going, he had to go and he could carry nothing with him. He was going; acquiring nothing for which he had fought so many wars with so much bloodshed. These and many more examples are suffice for describing the importance of self-development and self-understanding, we now live in an era where the urge to develop oneself is a dire need, and the most important fact is that we have to walk the paths all by ourselves.

The last phrase of the book “Even the search is good” left me speechless and augmented my urge to take a deep breath and continue my "work" with indeed an optimistic aura. Thus, hereby I’d suggest a must read for all in this winter fall.

Rating - 5/5

Book Review of Making A Poem

Book Review About the Book Making A Poem is a powerful affecting collection of poetry that sheds a fascinating light upon the writing process and poet’s personal aesthetics. These are eloquent pieces where the poet displays a confident command of the poetic form to bring his ideas and observations to life. The pieces that ponder the reality of poetic expression are perhaps most fascinating. Their reflexivity results in a most engaging collection of poems. Making A Poem is an intuitive, thoughtful and creative pieces that work together as a cohesive collection. Review: What first caught my attention is the cover of the book having poet’s poise image with intense black background. What I liked the most about this book is, usage of lucid language and short verses. The poet has adroitly used figures of speech, his words seems to come alive. The beauty of these poems are, most of them are open ended for readers to draw the conclusion further. Categorized into different stage
