Author: Robin S. Sharma
A fable about fulfilling your dreams and reaching your destiny.
Published by jaico Publishing – Bombay in association with M/s. Harper Collins – Canada.
With the series of books, the author narrates the experiences of his friend Mr. Julian Mantle a lawyer forced to confront the spiritual crises of his out of balance life. A person at the peak of his professional success collapses for spiritual endurance. As the title implies he sells his Ferrari and provokes the interest on the spiritual side of life where he learns about the sages of Himalyas.
The author compares the life style of the west with the ancient Indian by comparing his life before and after his visit to Himalyas. The wide spread 13 chapters clearly depict the life of the sages including habitats and relationships.

Ya its a good book. But the concepts discussed by the author in the book were all once practiced by our ancestors. It should have been our way of life! We have lost it, by indulging ourselves in the endless search of worldly desires! It is irony that we INDIANS need to learn it by reading a book!
