On the auspicious occasion of Janmashtami , I felt a deep inkling towards reading something meaningful related to Krishna ji, the epitome of supreme power and thankfully just a day before I received this magnificent book which actually proved to be one of the best reads of this year.
Srimad Bhagavad Gita has the solution to each and every single thing or anomaly that one can ever come across spanning through centuries or lives. Inspite of being written million of years ago the teachings are priceless and infact more relevant in the current times . We need such influential learnings now more than ever as the world is facing a deadly pandemic and people are losing hopes with each passing day and spirituality is the only feasible solution which provides us a silver lining in these dark times.
The book though short is filled with so much knowledge and wisdom . It teaches a lot about essential virtues of life like courage , valour and the path of righteousness. The insights given by author are very deep and praiseworthy. I mean each and every word seems to ooze spirituality in sheer amount. The cover and printing are marvellous too. Can't find a single flaw in the book though I wanted it to be longer and some pictorial representation would have added feather in the cap.Really happy to come across this author .Will definitely keep an eye on more work by him.
A must read for every single individual out there if one wants to find himself in ultimate meditation state and feel absolute serenity .

Book: Krishna…Greatest Spiritual Wisdom For Tough Times
Author: PRANAY
Genre: Spiritual
Format: Paperback
Pages: 125
Rating: 5/5
When I started reading books , it all started with spiritual books. With the passage of time from a habit to lifestyle, I started reading more and more. But in the process, I got more attracted to Self –Help , Fiction, Poetry and Small Stories. Somewhere in the journey, the love for reading spiritual books got faded away. All the people in my family and bigger family attend sermons every now and then. But due to the pandemic it has been really long since I last attended one. My soul was craving to attend one. Also, I was heart of heart craving to read a soulful book or something which is a spiritual guide. It was then I came across this beautiful spiritual guide.
The Book is divided into five parts : Karma Yoga (The Path of Dynamic Action), Raja Yoga( The Royal Path To Bliss), Bhakti Yoga(The Path of Devotion), Gyaana Yoga(The Path of Knowledge) and Conclusion(Ultimate Warrior- Consciousness). The various dimensions of all these paths are explained in detail by the author. It is not a book to be read once. It is enriched with so much wisdom that it has to be read over and over again.
The Book is a perfect spiritual guide which can guide us on various aspects. Most importantly, the wisdom helps us by giving clarity towards our approach for living life. A must read spiritual guide for all !
The Author has explained the meaning of words of wisdom given by Lord Krishna to Arjun or Udahav .
Besides quoting the wisdom, author has explained it in simple words and with more clarity so that readers are able to connect more easily and are able to adapt the teachings of Lord Krishna in their lifes and make their lives beautiful. I really liked how the author has explained the metaphors used in the holy book ‘Gita’. The language is kept easy and lucid. So that more and more people benefit from this spiritual guide. I would like to give special appreciations to author for so apt interpretation and narration in simple language. I felt each line of the book was radiating spiritual wisdom. I cherished it as it felt like attending a sermon where I get to learn a lot about how to approach life.
The cover page is really attractive In terms of everything ranging from color , design to font . The Title is the mirror of the content of the book. The quality of paperback is really good. The choice of font size, style and spacing make it reader –friendly .
Generally I Include constructive criticism as a part of my review. But to be true, This book was exemplary. It was far far better than what I had expected. I am really proud of such Authors. I would like to read more and more books on spirituality written by this author. Also, I would ask you to read this book as it can add a lot of value to our life. The reason why I chose to write genre as ‘spirituality’ rather than ‘religious’ is because it has nothing to do with any religion. Any person can follow the words of wisdom given in the book and make his/her life beautiful and meaningful.
If you are someone who keeps on exploring the meaning of life and are looking forward to gain spiritual wisdom or what to approach life with a right attitude , this book is a must read for you.

very well written book yet again by Pranay.
You would enjoy each and every page. The decipher of Lord Krishna and his role in Mahabaratha was done by many in the past and it is really difficult to convince the readers by coming out with a different interpretation altogether which is where the author has succeeded.
Though the book is a quick read, the content it has in it is worth the reading. The understanding of the ultimate avatar and what HIS role signifies is something that cannot be put in words. Yet, the author has given his best.
This book is divided into five chapters namely:
Karma Yoga
Raja Yoga
Bhakti Yoga
Gyaana Yoga &
Conclusion
What does each of these signify?
In the first chapter, understanding Leela is what I liked the most. In one of the passage, the reference of “your ultimate reality is higher than the material circumstances facing you” has given me goosebumps.
Don’t keep questioning yourself. True courage can never arise when you become doubtful of everything - this would act as an antidote for those who do not believe in themselves despite having all the qualities and capabilities. I’m a good example here because despite not being on full-time work when an MNC willingly hired me, I did not give a second thought because I know that I could deliver despite having my own shortfalls because we all are born to learn and this learning process will never end until we are alive. Agree?
“Clear your thoughts and emotions. Act freely”
The moment you understand life to be a great interplay of natural energies, you become psychologically free. How true it is.
To put it simply, most of these things are very much around us but we are ignorant and living in bliss.
The inclusion of Swami Vivekananda & Paramahansa Yogananda is an added bonus.
Who knows Lord Krishna in HIS real form?
Who is a Yogi? What he does?
The book talks in detail about
Maya
Leela
Dharma
Wisdom
Evolving
Control
Being Bold
Control
The inner being to name a few.
This book is written by an evolved soul and I’m glad that I have read a few of his books to date and would finish reading all, as it has given me a different dimension to approach life, with positivity. Such is the power, the words have and no doubt Pranay is one of the most sought after personalities in the field of spirituality coupled with leadership.

We all need someone in our difficult times who could guide, advise and navigate us through these tough times. But we all don't have such a person, in fact, we all can't have such a person as we all are humans and we all have a life to deal with.
However, we have books, which can and are helping us in becoming better people.
And one such book is penned by @, Krishna which is about the teachings of Lord Krishna. We all are fully aware that during the War of Mahabharata, Krishna helped Arjun to fight against his blood and through Arjun he taught the entire world, some life-saving principles.
In this book, the author has simplified those principles and learnings of Krishna and presented them in a manner that even a layman can comprehend effortlessly.
The book is divided into 5 parts viz,
1. Karma Yoga: The Path of Dynamic Action
2. Raja Yoga: The Royal Path to Bliss
3. Bhakti Yoga: The Path of Devotion
4. Gyaana Yoga: The Path of Knowledge
5. Conclusion: Ultimate Warrior - Consciousness
In this book, the author has talked about how one can tackle the crises be it personal or professional by emboding the dynamic teachings of Krishna.
I don't know how but I always end up on a book at the perfect time. These days I am facing a lot of issues both personal and professional and when my life was in complete chaos, I, out of blue started this book and now I can see the difference, the calmness this book has brought in my life is surreal.
Books on spirituality are always bliss to read and I recommend this book to all those who are seeking some answers from their lives.

"Krishna: Greatest Spiritual Wisdom" by Pranay offers a modern reexamination of the ancient wisdom of Lord Krishna. Blending spirituality with practical guidance, the book provides readers with tools to navigate life’s inevitable challenges. Pranay’s engaging narrative reinterprets timeless teachings for today's context, making this work a valuable resource for anyone seeking both inner peace and actionable strategies.
Key Themes and Insights
The book delves into several specific topics and concepts drawn from Krishna’s teachings:
Selfless Action and Duty (Karma Yoga):
One of the central topics is the idea of performing one’s duty without attachment to the outcome. Pranay emphasizes that embracing karma yoga can lead to a life free of undue stress, where actions are taken with integrity and selflessness, ultimately paving the way for personal growth and fulfillment.
Mindfulness and Meditation:
Krishna’s guidance on cultivating awareness is reinterpreted as a call to embrace mindfulness practices. The book explores how meditation can quiet the mind and provide clarity, helping readers respond to modern stressors with a calm and centered perspective.
Detachment and Acceptance:
Another key insight is the importance of detachment—not as indifference, but as a way to remain balanced in the face of life’s highs and lows. Pranay discusses how learning to accept the natural ebb and flow of life can empower individuals to tackle challenges without being overwhelmed by them.
Resilience in Adversity:
The book stresses that every tough time is an opportunity for growth. Through real-life examples and allegorical tales, Krishna’s teachings are shown as a source of strength that encourages resilience and innovation in the face of modern hardships.
Structure and Style
Pranay structures the book in a clear, progressive manner:
Sequential Flow: Each chapter builds on the previous one, starting with an introduction to Krishna’s timeless teachings and moving towards practical applications in everyday scenarios.
Accessible Language: The writing is straightforward and engaging, ensuring that complex spiritual concepts are accessible to readers from all walks of life.
Rich Anecdotes: Interwoven with theoretical insights are anecdotes and examples that illustrate how these ancient ideas can be implemented in modern life, making the narrative both relatable and actionable.
What I Like About The Book
Actionable Spirituality:
The standout feature is the practical application of deep spiritual concepts. The book doesn’t merely dwell on philosophy; it provides clear strategies on how to incorporate practices like meditation, detachment, and selfless action into daily routines.
Modern Relevance:
By linking ancient wisdom with contemporary challenges, Pranay bridges the gap between traditional spiritual teachings and today’s fast-paced, complex world. This makes the book both inspiring and highly relevant.
Holistic Approach:
The text strikes a commendable balance between personal development and professional growth. The inclusion of dynamic leadership insights ensures that readers can see the benefits of Krishna’s teachings in every facet of life—from personal resilience to workplace success.
Final Thought
"Krishna: Greatest Spiritual Wisdom" is more than just a spiritual guide—it’s a roadmap for transforming everyday challenges into opportunities for growth and leadership. Pranay’s fresh perspective on Krishna’s teachings encourages readers to embrace mindfulness, detachment, and dynamic leadership in their own lives. Whether you’re seeking personal solace or striving for professional excellence, this book offers a profound blend of ancient wisdom and modern practicality that can inspire lasting change.

Krishna: Greatest Spiritual Wisdom for Tough Times by Pranay, highlights the teachings of Lord Krishna in his four paths of Yoga, namely Karma Yoga, Raja Yoga, Bhakti Yoga and Gyana Yoga. Through this book, the author talks about all four of these in a thought provoking and enlightening way which is bound to expand your knowledge about spirituality, self-consciousness and much more.
• Karma Yoga: Highlights the importance of focusing entirely on the task in our hand and what we are capable of in a crisis situation.
• Raja Yoga: Talks about tapping the timeless energy and peace that each one us holds deep within ourselves and reaching a state of oneness with the supreme powers.
• Bhakti Yoga: Teaches one how to calm one’s mind and spirits and focus on the larger reality rather than fretting over materialistic problems.
• Gyaana Yoga: Advocates the importance of clarity of one’s mind and perspective about various things so that the desired results may be achieved.
Do you feel it too that these days it is surprisingly easy to doubt ourselves and let our insecurities get the best of us, or is it just me? Fending off negativity has become harder and it is super easy to give in to the harsh realities. In times like these, it is really important to think straight and keep our heads clear. Take my word for it. This book will help you do just that.
The book gives out a clear message about how to believe in ourselves, be bold and find our way out of any and all demanding circumstances with ease. The author has done a commendable job shedding light on Krishna’s ways to attain self-consciousness and unity of mind-body-spirit. He talks about Krishna’s “warrior way of life” that is immensely helpful in all facets of life, and even more in a competitive era like ours.
Having read another book from the author’s pen, I was really looking forward to the comprehensive and soothing way in which he talks about all the concepts, making them totally graspable. And I must say that this book met all my expectations and left me buzzed up with all the learning.

This book focuses on Krishna's integrated techniques as well as on finding the answers to life's challenges via his four principal paths of Yoga or spiritual wisdom: Karma Yoga, Raja Yoga, Bhakti Yoga, and Gyaana Yoga.
The first chapter i.e. Karma Yoga is the path of dynamic action. You should always be yourself doing any action, don't imitate another. Your self-nature is your own; it is unique. It is a very duty in life to work according to your self-nature.
The second chapter i.e. Raja Yoga talks about the royal path to bliss. Krishna reminds us in Bhagwat Gita that life is besest by problems. Life is itself a battle within which each one of us fights with our battles. And the art of facing all the challenges and difficulties with utmost kindness, wisdom, and calmness is key.
The third chapter i.e. Bhakti Yoga talks about the path of devotion. Krishna says, "The person who is not changed by applause nor by blame, who is quiet and contented within, who has the firm resolve of mind and is full of devotion that person is indeed very dear to me." Bhakti Yoga is an attitude of devotion within all our functioning in life. It is the inner attitude of surrendered devotion that makes you more powerful.
The fourth chapter i.e. Gyaana Yoga talks about the path of knowledge. The way of silently imbibing the truth consciousness and bliss of the divine aspect of life is Krishna's way of Gyaana Yoga. The only way to move towards the greater vision and greater success in life is to feel a fullness of clarity, and the fullness of energy, together.
The last chapter i.e Conclusion talks about the state of consciousness. By understanding Krishna you can face any problem or circumstance with confidence.
If you give of yourself through the best of your consciousness, there is nothing more to be concerned about
This book is such a beautiful book. I read this book twice and still, there was so much which I learned in the second read. The author has done a commendable job. The language used is easy and the book cover is so elegant. You will learn a lot from this book. It is a book on life so i would recommend

Bhakti Yoga is an attitude of devotion within all our functioning in life. It is the inner attitude of surrendered devotion that makes you more powerful.
The fourth chapter i.e. Gyaana Yoga talks about the path of knowledge. The way of silently imbibing the truth consciousness and bliss of the divine aspect of life is Krishna's way of Gyaana Yoga. The only way to move towards the greater vision and greater success in life is to feel a fullness of clarity, and the fullness of energy, together.
The last chapter i.e Conclusion talks about the state of consciousness. By understanding Krishna you can face any problem or circumstance with confidence.
If you give of yourself through the best of your consciousness, there is nothing more to be concerned about
This book is such a beautiful book. I read this book twice and still, there was so much which I learned in the second read. The author has done a commendable job. The language used is easy and the book cover is so elegant. You will learn a lot from this book. It is a book on life so i would recommend
SUGGESTION: Go slow with the book

वह दिन मत दिखाना कान्हा
कि हमें खुद पर गुरुर हो जाए
रखना अपने दिल में इस तरह
कि जीवन सुफल हो जाए। ।
I have always watched Krishna's learnings in TV and heard about it through my grannies. When I got a book to read about teachings of krishna I quickly picked it up.
In this book, the author has taught us about principles and learnings of Krishna & written them in a manner that even a normal reader can relate it easily.
The book is divided into 5 parts namely,
1. Karma Yoga: Which means "The Path of Action". (Jaisi krni, vaisi bharni)
2. Raja Yoga: Which means
"The Royal Path to Bliss".
3. Bhakti Yoga: Which means "The Path of Devotion". (Bhakt)
4. Gyaana Yoga: Which means "The Path of Knowledge". (Gyan)
5. Conclusion: Which means "Consciousness". (Famously known as #krishnaconsciousness
What I liked -
1) Krishna's teachings which we have read in the Bhagvad Gita and ancient books are explained in simple terms with relevant meaning without disturbing the original meaning.
2) The narrative is crisp and clear. It helps us in connecting our mind with the mythological ideology.
3) The book has given introduction of lord Krishna and taught us how his teachings, morale, principles has the power to answer even the toughest questions of life.
4) These lessons are imperative in overcoming any challenge or crisis, and take us towards excellence, enlightenment, and energetic living.
5) The book is a short read of only 128 pages and can be completed in one sitting.
6) The cover of the book is gorgeous. The yellowish touch Is apt.
What I didn't liked-
1) Probably nothing, the number of pages could have been more with a few pictorial discription.
I would recommend everyone to read this book atleast once, this will help to live your life in more positive way.

What would one do during a crisis situation and dynamic thoughts that ponders all the way in resolving it. The book starts with such teachings undoubtedly all are not unique but presents them in a much lucid language. This focusses on the specific topic of self consciousness and liberating oneself from the worldly pleasures tied to us all along the journey of life. This lists the famous teachings of Krishna's four paths of spiritual path i.e. Karma Yoga, Raja Yoga, Bhakti Yoga, Gyaana Yoga. It shares the account of spiritual awakening needed in order to control body, mind and soul. It teaches the person to find the ultimate path of consciousness.
This is an easy take on complex topics in reaching readers of prior idea about the karmic principals. Also provides deeper insights at the same time being an engaging read. This lays out the preaching's of Krishna from the Gita in gaining consciousness and enhance the better understanding of human life.

"KRISHNA" by Author Pranay is a fantastic book based on the teachings of Lord Krishna. The Author has included many chapters which can guide you at every stage of your life. The language is very easy which makes the book even more nice. The best thing about this book is that it is not a "one-time" read, one can read this book whenever he finds himself in a difficult situation. To be honest, I find peace while turning through the pages of the book. I re-read the book very often and everytime it gives me a positive vibe which I can't explain. Also the cover of the book looks so amazing and catchy that you just can't ignore it. It was a fascinating experience reading this book. The Author has done a great job writing this beautifully. Read this book and fall in love with "Krishna" and his teachings. I am sure, you are going to hold it close to your heart forever.

The first thing that impressed me about the book is the design of its cover page, which is has a soothing color with the yellow color reflecting its spiritual theme. I also loved the fact that the book has been written in a simple and easy to understand language besides which it has a crisp and clear narrative. Despite its short length of only 128 pages,the book is able to successfully connect the mind of the readers with the various mythological morals and principles that can help readers to overcome even the most difficult challenges in life. This is a must read book for people seeking spiritual wisdom and guidance in a manner that is easy to understand and comprehend. I wish Pranay all the best for its success.
