      Default Have u read any PAULO COELHO book.

      since this site is based on the lines of mysticisim.Ithink i should recommend this brazillian author best known for his bestseller "The Alchemist.
      just in the other thread,theres a discussion on Soulmates...

      The whole book called "brida" is about that,along with occult practices,rituals and other aspects of spirituality.I think everyone should read it......

      I've read extracts and I've been very interested in his books for many years now but for whatever reason, I've never read a full one. I've heard so much about his books though that I reckon it's only a matter of time.

      The one I've read extracts from was 'The Alchemist' which you read. I've also read extracts from "The manual of the warrior of light" or something like that. Can't remember exactly but that is what caught my attention most and again, I don't know why, but I never got to read that book in full. I don't own either but I'll definitely be looking to borrow them from the friend of mine who has them.

      I recommend looking him up on YouTube though as he has some very intriquing interviews and concepts on there.

      Yep, I've read The Alchemist....and enjoyed it very much!!

      Next time when I have the chance of going to Borders (our big-chain bookstore here in the US)....I'll be sure to check out more books by Paulo Coelho, something I've been meaning to do anyway, so thanks for the reminder Sounak!

      Here is his official website, for those who would like to peruse through his works....

      That looks like a really good read, both A Thousand splendid suns and the Kite runner.

      I will look out for these

      I have just read Last Man Down by Richard 'Pitch' Picciotto.

      Richard Picciotto was one of the last men to emerge alive from the rubble of WTC 1 on sept 11th, This book an heroic account of firemen in the north tower of the world trade centre when it collapsed, You can only imagine what it was like, knowing that the south tower had collapsed and trying to get everybody out of the north tower before it suffered the same fate.

      It was a good read and for someone like me thousands of miles away from NYC who has only seen the images on TV it puts a human face on the tragedy.

      I haven't read Kite Runner yet, but I hear it's excellent.

      A Thousand Splendid Suns, was a definite 'page turner' for me, I just plowed through it!

      My Experiments With Truth - M.K.Gandhi

      It's the Epitome of truth,not one of those autobiographical by any famous personalities.

      Oh, don't mind me, I'm just tending to "behind the scenes stuff", merging like with like that's all!

      I don't have really much time for pleasure reading, so in last few months I had time to check out only a few books and these are last two Harry Potter novels: Half Blood Prince and Deadly Hallows. I also very much enjoyed Richard Dawkins's God Delusions. The book I read some time ago, but I still like to check a few things out now and then is Man and His Symbols by Carl Gustav Jung. I hope to check a few new things out soon...
