Book Review : A Street Puppy's Guide to
                           Indian religious wisdom





Title - A Street Puppy's Guide
            to Indian Religious Wisdom
Author - Dr. HariHaran
Publisher - Lead start publishing
Genre - mythology
Pages - 188
Format - kindle

This is the unique title and the cover of the book which made me to pick up this book. The story of this book revolves around the protagonist Vasu who found himself in a dog's body. He shocked to see himself in a mirror.He was very surprised and thought why am I in the dog's body.

Read the book to know more about the Vasu's funny, informative and warm hearted story.

The concept of the book is unique, philosophical and interesting. The author has given an informal introduction to Advaita Vedanta in this book which is narrated by a dog. This is  one of the most ancient and well-regarded among all Indian philosophies. This book is a perfect blend of philosophy and fiction. The author has very well explained the three fundamental postulates of Advaita - the truths about Jiva, world and God. After that he has shared how a life that is built on the Advaitik wisdom will look like. That would give us the inspiration and confidence to walk the path.

Language used is simple and lucid. The flow of the book is well paced. Hats off to the author for writing such a book which is totally apt in today's condition as almost all people blindly follow their religion.

Overall, a different read.

Rating - 4.4/5

I recommend this book to everyone.
