As the monk Julian said, some books are to be eaten, some are to be chewed and some are to be swallowed. Well this is THE BOOK! This book is presented for readers to read in author’s place but for me I felt like another John thats sitting next to him while the monk was giving the talk. As a Buddhist, I had practiced meditation and had heard of many of these teachings growing up. Reading this now pushes me back to the path of mastering my mind

This book is a great fable about a man who realizes that though he had wealth and success, he wasn't living a fulfilling life. The book gives the reader the tools to live the meaningful life. Sharma gives some great advice and teaches the reader to truly analyze one's current life as well as the life one can live. He teaches us to: eliminate negative thoughts and think positive thoughts, live the life you were meant to live, develop self discipline, value your time and nourish your relationships, and truly live the fullest life you can, one day at a time. At first read it can feel overwhelming to take on the lifestyle he encourages. However, he teaches us how to break it down into pieces and take baby steps towards living this amazing and fulfilling life. There are great summaries at the end of each chapter that nicely outline each lesson and technique. I highly recommend this for anyone and everyone.
