About the Author

'Me' Thinks
Unlike his other books this is not based on a story. In the beginning
there is a short story of few pages which creates a base for the manual.
The rest of the book is full of quotes and few thoughts related to it.
This unique style of writing makes this book a very easy- to-read kind
of book. You can actually open any page and just read the quote from
there with the thoughts and close the book to ponder on the same. It is
the kind of book you can either begin or end your day with it.
Every quote might not seem appealing enough in the first instance
itself. But with a little deeper insight in it through the thoughts
behind it creates a mystique air around it. With every page you turn you
evolve more as a human being and get closer to your spiritual being.
We have so many questions in our mind about this enigma called life.
This book is an attempt at answering them. We all know that we are here
for some reason but are unaware about it. This book acts as a guiding
force for us to know the reason behind our existence and helps us begin a
journey towards self-realization. As we go farther and farther in this
journey we come across so many truths about our lives which we never
knew till now.
Reading this book is a soul-stirring exercise
as it changes your entire perspective towards life. By naming this book
Manual of the Warrior of Light, the author states that there is a
warrior in each one of us. And this book helps us bring out that
Warrior in us. The beauty of this book is that every time you read it
there will be a newer meaning waiting for you to unveil. It is a book
which you can read a number of times and still not be done with it.
During some difficult times in life when you are looking for some
inspiration this proves to be it. Simply said it’s a pick-read-put book
whenever you feel you have lost track of the path ahead.
Personally for me this book has managed to give some very magical
solutions to certain problems I had been going through. I will share my
trick with you; I keep my right hand on the book and close my eyes to
think about my problem for few minutes. All the while I am running my
fingers on the pages. As if pulled by some miraculous power I stop at
one page and open it only to find the answer to my question lying there
for me. Try it. To each one his own, who knows reading this book you
might find a new secret.
