Book Review: When the Soul Heals by Pulkit Sharma
What I like about When the Soul Heals by Pulkit Sharma is that the reader can look up a specific illness to find out typically related emotional issues. This gives them a starting point in healing their life. Approached with an open mind & free spirit, this book if utilized can help you heal your life. This isn’t a book you read through once, it’s a hand & reference tool you go back to again and again,
So many of us are just suffering quietly inside, and pretending that the world is just fine and peachy. So many of us would never utter a word about our inner tumult to anyone and in fact, I am certain that author Pulkit Sharma wrote this book “When the Soul Heals” for the silently misguided souls among us much more so than the ones that are openly unhappy and miserable and in dire need of help.
“Whatever be the level of our spiritual development, deep down all of us have a sense about the true purpose of life.”
The affirmations are powerful but even as such, they are very new to me so I am learning to use them one day at a time. I keep repeating them and I realize the more I use them, the more I am in need of them. When the Soul Heals by Pulkit Sharma is life transforming and It makes us confront our fears and anxieties. You can’t just read this book in a go. It creates turmoil inside and at the same time it also pacifies your heart and let’s you know the reasons for whatever you feel. I could barely read 20 pages a day. Because every single chapter made me question my own beliefs, my own values, some of which I didn’t even know why and how I had inculcated in the first place.
“Every living being longs to be happy, untainted by sorrow; and everyone has t he greatest love for himself, which is solely due to the fact that happiness is his real nature.”
The author knows where those critical spots of a person are, which if touched, reveal the truth about their past. He pushes you to get inside your own head and discover things about yourself that have been long buried. The book challenges your thought patterns and also pushes you towards analysing your current life and how it could be connected with your past experiences.
“The best antidote for pain is to let go and develop a higher perspective.”
This book is a magnificent experience in itself. It takes you through an inner journey which brings more peace and understanding within oneself. It is a must read for everyone who is looking forward to expanding their consciousness. This book is good for someone who wants a little boost of the ego and feel better about themselves. I suppose if one does all the exercises, they would benefit better. I would recommend When the Soul Heals by Pulkit Sharma to anyone who is going through a bad time, or suffers from lack of self confidence.
