Lifes journey is dotted with significant events that teach us invaluable lessons. Yet, it is in the subtleties of small things which are often overlooked, that we discover the true spirit of life.

Monks, Monkeys and Memories is a travelogue of such a journey. It recounts people and situations the author has come across in his life. These events reveal an evolution within the author. It is from a restless monkey mind towards the serene wisdom of a monk.

Easy to read, entertaining, funny and yet deeply introspective, these stories offer ample space between the lines, inviting the reader to explore lifes essence. They also serve as a travel guide for their personal journey.

Each chapter in Dr Rajans refreshing new musing unfolds to reveal a charming insight. Cumulatively the stories add up to a kaleidoscope of experiences that mimic a curriculum for the University of Life. I hope to inculcate this awareness in my own lifes ongoing endeavour to swing from monkey to monk.

I finished the book and I tell you that it made me very touched and moved. I was reluctant to read the last 3 chapters because I didnt want it to end.

The book is a great mix of wisdom, therapy, and funny episodes. The stories have often a healing effect because they allow you to get a new perspective, not to lose courage, but to motivate you to go ahead and move on. I often had tears in my eyes, not just from Life and Death, but also from joy.
