“Life of Pi
My favorite incident in the novel is when the priest, pundit and mullah – all of them are mad at Pi because he follows Christianity, Hinduism and Islam devotedly. I laughed aloud when I read this anecdote. The only criticism I have is that there was too much details about animal behavior that I had to skip reading. Other than that, the story was gripping and thrilling. It is indeed a story that will make you believe in God as vouched in the novel.
by Savitribai Khanolkar is a short and easy to read book. It has biography of saints of Maharashtra from 13th century to 17th century. It portrays how all the saints yearned for only one thing – Self Realization. All the saints knew that God is one and were beyond any caste, creed or so-called religion of Hinduism, Islam, Christianity, Judaism and so on. Their religion was devotion and love for God. They saw God in all, true definition of a saint.
