The ideas in this book have been transformational for me, and for 100's of clients around the world. They did something to wake me up to the wonder and magnificence of being fully alive. Isn't it funny? More than 50 years of seeking, working and trying - and it turns out to be this easy!

Coconut Country Musings


Book Description

On a lazy vacation or travel, when one wants to read an enjoyable light literature, then Coconut Country Musings is the right pick. It is a collection of short stories, ruminations of a random wanderer and dateless notes on life’s tipping points. Through the pages, we meet many familiar characters, the way they talk, think and act. As someone commented, “Many of us think of writing these stories from life but never get around to doing it.” Do you like reading an amusing letter from a friend? Then Coconut Country Musings will compel you to read the stories more than once. The writer sits next to you and entertains with his dramatic descriptions. He will engage you in a conversation that will take you through nature, make you feel and smell its salubrious ambience. And there are memories of a familiar childhood and episodes of youthful adventures. You may face surprises, accidental meetings and a few sagacious axioms that would pep you up. If the reader lived in the last three decades of the last century in India, then you can relate with the writer. If you are a millennial kid, you meet an uncle who lived in that sliver of land in the south of India, Kerala – the Coconut Country.




Leonard (My Life as a Cat)


Book Description

He’s not a stray house cat, he’s an immortal being. And now he must choose whether to return to his planet or remain with his new human friend in a humorous, heart-tugging story from the author of I, Cosmo. The cat that Olive rescues from a flood has a secret: he’s not really a cat at all, but an alien who crashed to Earth on a beam of light. The cat, whom Olive names Leonard, was prepared to visit the planet as a human—but something went wrong. Now Leonard may never know what it’s like to hold an umbrella, go bowling, or host a dinner party. (And his human jokes still need some work: Knock, knock. Who’s there? Just Leonard. It is me.) While Olive worries about whether she will have to move after her mom and her new boyfriend get back from their summer vacation, Leonard tries to figure out how to get from South Carolina to Yellowstone National Park, because if he’s not there at the end of the month, he’ll miss his ride home. But as Olive teaches Leonard about the beautiful and confusing world of humans, he starts to realize how much he cares about this particular one. A sweet and dryly funny story about what it means to be human—and what it means to be home.
