On my spiritual journey, there were many questions that I had no answers to. What happens after death? How are we born? Is the Law of Karma real? Does rebirth actually happen? What is the truth about Enlightenment or Salvation? What is it that some people call Nirvana or Moksha? Many questions like these, together formed my Talaash or quest of life. The most important question was about the Soul. Everybody talks of the Soul, but not many know the true meaning of it. What is the Soul?
In my quest for answers, I spent months as I contemplated the Soul. It was a critical piece to complete my jigsaw puzzle, a puzzle that needed to be solved as it became the priority of my life.
My quest took me through all the religions of the world. I read many scriptures and investigated several philosophies of the saints and the sages around the globe. Ultimately, I experienced my spiritual 'Aha!' moment about the Soul.
I decided to write a book on the Soul. We are alive because of our Soul and to realize the truth about our Soul is our life's ultimate goal. However, we do everything else but forget to discover this truth.
We human beings are strange. We just believe in whatever we are taught or told, because of which we only sink further and deeper into ignorance and become even more distant from the truth. If we contemplate the Soul, we will find answers to the most important questions about life. It will take us forward in our journey of self-realization and ultimately to the rare feat of God-realization.
This is not an easy journey. Only sincere seekers who want to realize the truth about themselves and God are fuelled with a passion that leads them both to realization and liberation.
Why is it that most of us don't discover the truth about our Soul during our life journey? We human beings are so lost in this world that we become slaves to our own desires, our very own thoughts. We do not discover and realize that our biggest enemy is 'ME', our own Mind and Ego because it stops us from realizing the truth. Thus, we live and die in ignorance and many truths about life continue to remain a mystery.
The Soul is enigmatic and we must unravel the mystery that surrounds it. Can we deny that we have a Soul? Don't we often discuss it? Are we not confused whether the Soul exists or not? From where does it come and where does it go? This book will solve the riddle and reveal the truth about the Soul!
