Some books don’t just inform you—they awaken something ancient inside you. "Sacred" is one such book. It doesn’t feel like a read; it feels like a return… a gentle walk back into the arms of nature, of tradition, of the Earth we’ve forgotten to truly look at.

Author has poured reverence into every word. With each plant she introduces—be it the tulsi or the powerful rudraksha—you feel not just educated but emotionally stirred. These aren’t just plants. These are stories, memories, prayers, and whispers from our roots.

Reading this book reminded me of my mother would offer durva to Ganesha, and many other things to remember. Sacred brought those quiet moments back—with a sense of wonder and gratitude.

It’s more than just a guide—it’s a journey through mysticism, science, beauty rituals, and healing. It’s a gentle reminder that nature has always had answers, that our traditions were never outdated—they were intuitive, deeply wise, and built in harmony with the world around us.

If you’ve ever looked at a tree and felt comfort, or held a flower and smiled without reason—this book will speak to your soul. Sacred doesn’t preach—it simply brings you home. This book is perfect in everything. The book also has the recipes to try . Thank you so much author for this book. I genuinely want to read this book to try every possible.
