El libro prometía ser una buena historia, pero terminó siendo una lectura de superación personal.

[Jessie · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book was an easy read that makes the message easy to understand for anyone. A great introduction for some one beginning their spiritual journey or for some one in need of a little refreshing pick-me-up (like me). Enjoyable story!

I don’t feel comfortable giving the book a rating as I went into this assuming it would be a fun adventure story, but finding out it is a very straight forward parable and not at all what I was wanting or particularly enjoy. Perhaps it’s the simplicity of it but it read like a story for kids and I do not think I am the target audience. Also it feels…weird that the author’s famous father endorses the book. It would have been more meaningful to have someone else write the introduction and praise the story.

The message is soft, gentle and uplifting, wrapping you in love. It reads like an old fairy tale, rich with meaning and chance encounters with marvelous folks on a life changing journey. I'll definatly read it again.

Un libro lleno que muchas enseñanzas a través de una parábola muy fácil de entender, resaltando la gran importancia de la sabiduría que se adquiere con cada persona que pasa por nuestra vida sin importar que la experiencia haya sigo buena o mala.

Very wise book with some lovely quotations. Really made me want to invest in more manifestation practices.

[Caroline · Rating 3 out of 5]

I'm going to play Devil's Advocate and say this book was cliche. It ended exactly as I thought it would- Hakim finds that the wise man is within himself and the real power and wealth of life is to love others, share whatever abilities the Creator/Universe bestowed upon you with others, to follow your heart. And to avoid the obvious- material wealth and doing only for one's self without thinking of others. Hakim journey's all over India just to find that the Wise Man he sought was within himself the whole time. *roll the Disney music folks*

It was like reading one of those books on Zen Buddhism or something. And I was given quite a few of them in my teens my Aunt's India (ex)fiance.

In the end the same little orphaned street kid Hakim turned away from, he ends up helping in the end.

What did throw me off is the fortune teller with the huge emerald ring who disappears and reappears, the African truck driver, and the Scottish (Irish ?) magician. It just seemed totally random. I mean I suppose the emerald ring was the manifestation of wisdom.

[...]Η αγάπη διώχνει το φόβο κι η ευγνωμοσύνη διατηρεί την αγάπη ζωντανή.[...]

[...]Πρόθεση, προσήλωση και δράση είναι οι μηχανισμοί για την εκπλήρωση τη επιθυμίας.[...]

[...]Όλοι έχουμε ένα ξεχωριστό χάρισμα για να προσφέρουμε στους άλλους. Αν ακούσεις προσεκτικά τη σοφία της καρδιάς σου, θα μάθεις ποιό είναι. Το μυστικό της ευτυχίας είναι να χρησιμοποιείς το ξεχωριστό σου χάρισμα. Το μυστικό του πλούτου είναι να προσφέρεις το χάρισμά σου στους άλλους.[...]

Gautama Chopra, Deepak Chopra's son, takes Deepak's book The Seven Spritual Laws of Success and turns it into a very understandable parable. Very uplifting and edifying. An easier insight into the popular books on the law of attracton.

[Deepak Tanna · Rating 1 out of 5]

it may seem unfair to rate this book poorly as this was a debut for the author, but you wonder if this book has any story at all. It struggles to share the philosophical ideas that a self help book usually offers

[Brian · Rating 4 out of 5]

Like a JV version of The Alchemist - still awesome.
