Real Secrets of Life by Krishna Jagarnath is a non-fiction book about how important spirituality and other lifestyle practices are to the author. He shares his secrets so that others can have a comfortable and peaceful life. Anyone who wants to learn more about God, the soul, nature, karma, intuition, and reincarnation would benefit from reading his story. The disciplines he mentions promote wellness in one's mind, body, and soul. The author outlines the daily requirements for exercise, diet, and sleep. He includes examples from his own life to show how he applies these principles.
A core belief in the book is the benefit of being disciplined and thinking positively. He explains how powerful people's minds are. These positive thoughts can include loving others, accepting one's circumstances, and embracing one's life purpose. Regarding his health, he overcomes his asthma by improving his diet consistently. This is an accomplishment because he does not need his asthma medicine anymore.
The author uses illustrations, chapter summaries and appendices to help make his points clear. One example is the chakra map which shows all the invisible aura layers that outline the body. The Consciousness Map is a summary of different life views and their corresponding emotions. Since the author shares information, the chapter summaries help the readers remember all the secrets that he reveals. At the end of the book, the author includes appendices so the readers can pursue these principles further. A pledge for peace and his vision for the future show his hopes. The bibliography and the glossary are useful for those who want to research some of these topics. In his biography, readers are given a brief synopsis of his life.
In the preface, the writer says that any suggestion on how he could improve this book is welcome. The spelling and grammatical errors that the proofreader did not detect, make this book difficult to read. This book might offend some Christians and Jewish people because the God in this book is not based on the Bible or the Torah. Reincarnation is not widely accepted by Christians or Jewish people as well.
I give this self-help book 3 out of 4 stars because the author does share some wise counsel. The author has valid reasons for compiling this book. A lack of spiritual awareness or knowledge about the mind-body connection can cause human suffering. He accomplishes his goal by sharing his advice so individuals can prevent issues before they occur.
