Run; The secret destination
AuthoR- Prakash Hegade
Genre- Non-fiction
Pages-
87 (E-book)
Publication-Smashword
Rating- 4.7/5 (Self)
Review- The book opens up with a beautiful poem describing
the author’s desire for a perfect world devoid of any negative feeling of
wickedness, selfishness, greed etc, then follows another short poem for identifying
the state of your search for the secret destination.
The
book has been divided into 24 chapters with catchy titles and meaningful
discussions follow the topics. One can find a poem after few chapters
describing the run in the most appropriate way; its types, implications,
consequences. Every chapter ending with a sentence, ‘The book is not about this
run’ accelerates the suspense to go through the subsequent chapters.
The
conclusive part of the book describing the Real run with this arrangement of words;
Runs
of untamed minds
Controlled
by the concerned heart,
Prisons
the feelings.
My
Experience-
First of all, a HIGH-FIVE to the writer because I agree
to all the points that he has mentioned in this book. Going through the pages
of the book gave me a feeling of hearing the words of experience from my
father, grandfather or an elderly person of my family who has accumulated all
his words just to show me the essence of life.
Gratitude! This book too comes to me as the most desired time, I would
call it the result of Law of attraction which I’ve started to believe in vehemently
after I finished Rhonda Bryne’s The Secret.
I could find the Haikus of writer from the book 100
Haikus so well placed to supplement the ongoing discussion. Influenced by the
idea of creating a directory in laptop to put inspiring stuffs like pictures, songs,
videos, movies, quotes, articles, I straight away created one in my desktop to
ponder about beautiful things of life. Needless to say, if one doesn’t feel gratitude
for every little thing in life, he won’t be able to appreciate the essence of
life. This feeling of appreciation is well reflected in the words of writer.
It’s never easy to write something in the genre of
non-fiction as most of the things are well known or experienced by us all. So,
to put so-called-obvious things in words and arranging them in a systematic way
is a work worth applauding for. My favourite chapters are- The F-runs, The
ruins, Don’t be surprised, Loneliness needs a note, Pin the problems , The real
run.
Last but not the least, the book is never a one –time
read. I’ve saved it in my gallery of books to be read again and again.
