The Zahir

Paulo Coehlo- who hasn't heard of him? Well, i got to know him through- The Zahir. Very well written in a lucid language. Simple, yet powerful, as someone describes him, he can take you along on journeys vast and wide. In all his books, one finds a different author, with deep, intense thoughts and feelings. I really wonder how can any human have such a variety of thoughts and styles. This author- not a preacher like Robin Sharma, preaches us- his readers unconsciously. We join hands with him, travel places, experience emotions, and think like him. We really dont get tired, how so ever long the journey is. He reveals a new secret every minute and all simple things are also quoted with expression s which make you wonder. iI really dont think that i have the expression or vocaulary to be writing about this great guru. I bow before him with great respect, and marvel as to how can any author be so innovative and so versatile.
Hats off to you, Paulo!
