The Wake up Call - "The Monk who sold his Ferrari"

It was the beginning days where I insisted myself to go with novels. I had just started to visit library and my interest was gradually shifting to the ocean of books. I came across this title “The monk who sold his Ferrari”; I was very much hypnotized by the title in no time. Soon as the title hit my senses, there were a lot of questions within me. Why a monk sold his Ferrari? How come a monk own a Ferrari? The speed of the mind and its thinking can sometimes cross the speed of light.

Proceedings are done lamely using two guys who are lawyers by profession. I think all the top writers have the tendency to make the book slightly boring for a couple of pages and take us with surprise and continue the rhythm.

The first chapter explains us how one can screw his life when he becomes a workaholic and misses precious things in life. The story even though it’s fictitious makes us believe it and try doing the things which we can manage in our daily life.  I found this book was eventually a master piece because after completing this book, there was an inner peace which made me feel light every time at least for the couple of days.

The explanation on miraculous of Julian mantle may make feel some of us to give a try and be young unlike others.

“On your death bed you will never wish you spent more time at the office”, these kinds of words alarms us to do the things which we are passionate and fond of. The magical changes in physical appearance of Julian mantle is elaborated with all the basic things which we also may need to adopt. Not in case of trekking to Himalayas may be exaggerated thought though. Living simple, giving us our own time, taking control of our self….

The captions below each chapter headings are sayings of greater personalities. “I am an artist at living – my work of art is my life”. You need to feel the words if you have to excel in life.

The cup and tea scenario describes amazing explanation technique. When Julian is asked to explain his changes he starts pouring tea into a cup, he keeps on pouring into it even after the cup is over flowing. When questioned for the strange behavior he replies just like this cup you’re full of your own ideas. I can’t force you them to let within you, you need to empty your mind so that you can grasp a bit.

The book is a wake-up call which is documented. You will be made to think beyond what you’re doing and re-assemble all the passions and the things you wanted to do. It leads us to the brighter life style.

Most of us are blindly running behind two things. One is profession and the other is money. There are many things which money can’t buy. I agree a healthy financial condition is very essential. Like the quotes “it is better to cry inside a BMW, than on a bicycle”. Feeling secured in money matters is not condensable. But in the path of earning one should not lose his path of art of living and health.

When our mind is not set free from the regular routines, as in computer if memory de-location process does not take place then system may not perform well by welcoming a lot of awful errors.

This book is recommendable for all those who are interested in altering and build up their routines and habits that can transform their lives. If the monk sold his Ferrari in search of his inner peace. We don’t have any problem to spend few bucks on the lovely book which makes us better .
