The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari by Robin Sharma
A
fabulous book and a must read for all the people who wish to improve their
lives and come out of spirals of continuous emptiness and grief. It is the time
best invested and I enjoyed it very much. A great teacher is the one who
simplifies everything and feeds it to the world; Robin Sharma has done this
exemplary work to the much delight of everyone. He has simplified the yogic
carvings of the great life a life which is full and no emptiness can come near
to it also, hats off to the author.
The
essence of the book starts with a beautiful garden, in the middle of the garden
is a light house and its door opens and comes out a sumo wrestler dressed in
nothing but pink cable around his groin. He accidently slips on a golden watch
and becomes unconscious and when he wakes up and he smells yellow roses,
furthermore he sees a path studded with diamonds and goes on it and ultimately
everything good happens to him.
Symbol Virtue
The Magnificent Garden Master
your mind
The lighthouse Follow
your purpose
The Sumo wrestler Practice
Kaizen
The pink wire cable Live
with discipline
The gold stopwatch Respect
your time
The fragrant roses Selflessly
serve others
The path of diamonds Embrace
the present
So we can see a small story can
change our life dramatically and inspire us for better living, selfless living,
a living which is more satisfying then our present condition. So I say it’s a
must read. I read it much later but still as we say “Der aye, durust aye”
