This book started on a very high note but lost its touch towards the end. It talks about the journey of a man who is troubled with the events happening in his life and wants to find the answers. He decides to go for a solo trip in search of peace of mind and self realization. He meets a stranger who answers all his questions and he finally re-discovers himself.

This book is for you if you have truly felt boredom, frustration, lost, lonely, anxiousness and/or hopelessness.
I don't know who the author is. I don't remember how I stumbled upon this book.
Oh! But I know I'm going to read this again. It manages to catch your attention as soon as it starts.
The 15 chapters are distributed wisely, with the struggle occupying the major chunk thus satisfying the need for a solution. I think having experimented with 'bouts of isolation myself I was able to truly appreciate the author.
And don't you want to talk about highlights. This book managed to get so many highlights that I absolutely loved. Not your typical self-help book. Not even a guidebook.
It's an entertaining read. And how easily the author managed to grasp and keep my interest.
Kudos. Small book. Definitely worth a read.

Yes, we all are wisely stupid
This is a book which i have completed in the minimum time.
I liked the character Jako not because he being the main person of the story, rather because i think most of us can connect with this character. There is Jako in most of us which we would have experienced at some point in time in our life.
Plus Hami, is a superhero.
This book is a must read to all those who claim themselves as intelligent one. Important is being wise rather than intelligent...
Must read. I personally enjoyed it from the beginning till the last word...

This story is about a boy who is kind of lost after his breakup with girlfriend. The book is a simple reading and nicely built around the character and has some life saving lessons for the people who fail in love :).
Nice book.
Nice book.

Some parts of the book are very deep but seem incomplete. More work should have been done to set a context and establish the characters

This book talks about various topics like friendship, love, spirituality and many more.
This is definitely more worthy than its cost.

Wisely stupid, the title caught my attention and picked this book with out thinking twice... I don't think I could have made any better decision :)
Initially when I started reading the book, I thought it is one of those love story books, with mention of Deepa multiple times. My impression turned 180 degrees after the character Hami was introduced.
There are absolutely somethings that am still pondering about much later after I finished reading the book...
Which part of sleep is pleasure? is it before we sleep or after we sleep? What a food for thought!
Epistemophobia and epistemology something to understand more for me :)
Humans and animals are different only because of our consciousness. If something takes away our consciousness why should we try it? We don't have to learn always from our mistakes, we can learn from others mistakes!!!
If we cannot see the creator when we cannot see the creation!!!! - Absolutely zapped with this sentence...
I liked this book because it gave me different perspective of things which we do on a day today basis.

"Wisely Stupid" is the story of every mankind. The workpressure,stress,family responsibilities,relationship etc. It has touched every aspect of life and it has given me a different angle and different prospective of looking at life. Some quotes are book are really good one and eye openers. I am giving here few-
1)If you are getting irritated by every rub,how will you be polished?
2)If you need answers for everything and if you want to satisfy your curiosity, start knowing yourself.When you dont know yourself,how can you know something which is out of yourself?
3)There is nothing like good or bad, Anything which gives peace and happiness after I commit the act is a good deed and anything which makes me guilty and sad after I commit the act ,is a bad deed.
Many more beautiful life changing quotes are there in the book.

Its a nice book written well . Just can let it down before finished reading it . A different experience altogether. You might like it but first part is slightly odd but it will be interesting as you read. You can try a sample and its worth the price.
I am still half way and will keep posting once completed the read.
