To see beyond the noise. To seek beyond the validation. To think beyond the self.
Why do we learn what we learn
and how we learn ?
“ I love to chase the biggest questions of education, its evolution, its purposes, the grander plans hidden in our failures, its magic to bring us out of our adverse most circumstances, its power to take humankind forward.”

“True Dummy has all the thrill of a fast-paced mystery, as its short chapters makes it page turner”

“In the slush of pulp, here comes a piece of literature… simmering with some soul – searching dilemmas that continue to haunt the humanity.”
- The Hindu
Such an inspiring read! True Dummy is among my top three reads right beside The Prophet by Khalil Gibran and Fountainhead by Ayn Rand.
- Soha Ali Khan
“I won’t even try to describe this wonderfully inspiring book. My words are by no means enough. I not only enjoyed diving into a different world but was amazed by the wisdom. I’m looking forward to going through it again and again – I feel there is ever more to discover. Eine inspirirende Antwort auf die Frage nach dem Sinn des Lebens – Danke!”
“Thank you for awakening the ‘Magi cian’ inside me and giving her a reason to dance once again despite the ‘rigorous Master’! Thank you for the thoughtful journey! Благодаря ти за мъдростта с която ме дари!”
“Whenever we walk into a bookstore, we see hundreds of books. Some we read and forget. But some we carry with us for the rest of our lives. ‘Fable of Existence’ is one I will always carry with me, because it has not let my imagination and emotions go after I put it down. It has not let me go to this day. Povestea din spatele povestii.”
