A decade back, there was a strong feeling that there is something more to life . People spoke about it as moksha, enlightenment, knowing the spirit, the self, etc and When I was started searching online for some top enlightenment books. With most search results showing the books such as The Secret, The Alchemist, Autobiography of a Yogi, Osho’s books, Buddha’s stories many of which I had read before; the books of Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar intrigued me the most. Reading the life of an enlightened master can itself be fulfilling and can free us off from many mental and emotional disturbances. The life of a Guru written as is, by his loving sister who has watched him up close right from his childhood days, is something very touching and moving. She shares the various incidents from her experiences of seeing the transition from being her loving, guiding elder brother to looking at him as her spiritual master .This would actually be the first on my list of top enlightenment books!

 When you read it once, you’ll want to read the book again and again for the profound wisdom and mystical stories that it offers along with the biography.
