Man by nature is a curious being. He wants to know the unknown, uncover the unseen and decipher the mysteries that surround him. This is what is primary theme of the book ,Encounters with the Supreme by Manash Kumar Mishra.

The author ever since he was a kid, has been enticed by his questions about the world and a superpower that hold the universe together in general and as he ages, he explores the deep rooted meaning of life through his inquisitiveness and encounters with the Supreme,who becomes his guide.

I personally am of the opinion that the questions that are directed to us by the author are absolutely necessary to be pondered upon. In many ways I found the book very informative and it surely had an impact on me. The philosophical teachings that the author wants to convey each chapter is brilliantly put forward in simple language along with examples that makes it easier to understand. Each chapter has a different question, that deals with the journey of man and how our spiritual selves play an even greater role in our enlightenment.

 The discussions are fluent and keeps you hooked through out the book, and at times you just can't help thinking how simple and beautiful life is ! And how we tend to complicate it with trivial things that donot add to our wholeness as a human but rather conspires to fail us.
