The Universe Revealed is my attempt to discuss more thoroughly the main questions that we humans should ask about our existence, our universe and our place in it. These are mostly my thoughts on science, religion and philosophy as it applies to the human condition. My first book, The Theory of Nothing, covered many subjects. This book will be more specific to the big questions about life and what it means.

I remember during school/college times, when we were mentally harassed by boring lectures, all of a sudden the teacher used to say, "Let me tell you a story." I remember how everyone's glum faces bloomed like a flower. Stories are life: without stories, life would be boring. "The universe is made of stories, not of atoms." By Muriel Rukeyser Whatever stories I'm gonna update, that's all what I've heard from my spiritual mentors, school/college teachers, parents, etc. If any of these stories brings an iota of change in your life, this book will be a success.

"Let's explore the world, man. First, we should go to the Himalayas," Ravi said as he was searching best spiritual places of India on his cell phone. "We're not going anywhere," Sid said sharply, his eyes narrowed in disbelief. "Isn't that what you want?" Ravi snapped, for him, Sid was such a killjoy. "The search for truth? That's how all yogis in the past began their journey. Off to the Himalayas for years, and boom, return like you're a God. Do you want peace or not?" Sid felt the question landed him on the horns of a dilemma. He did want to search the truth (the inner calling which he yearns to follow), but at the same time he knew it was impossible to cut off all his attachments. Hey, Mom! I'm going to the Himalayas, don't know when I will return. Life isn't this easy. A moment later, however, the reality hit him like a ball. It's true that most of the great spiritualists ended up in the Himalayas. ___________ Sid's life was ordinary like yours and mine, where you'd find no fantasy or fiction. But he was the possessor of extraordinary trait; he was looking for answers. Little did he know that we're living in a post-truth world. Some say it's an age where truth no longer matters. If you reason with people based on facts they'll explain away their beliefs by saying, "It's true to me and that's all that matters." Politicians spin the yarn of their agenda from time to time, media telecast news based on their political leanings. Social media has led us into an information war. Despite of above all harsh realities, Sid set himself off to find truth. A quest of self-discovery. How about you take this journey with Sid in which only love will reign supreme? It's just that you need to redefine the meaning of love.

(Slow updates) We worship God in different ways based on our own religious practices. There are different religions across the world. Every religion has it's own uniqueness with unique methods to worship the Him. But ultimately we all have one common goal of conveying our prayers to Him. In this book I have tried to explain various scenarios how we can acknowledge the existence of God within and around us. With this awareness we can definitely achieve the path to success. Note: This book is not specific to any religion. But it speaks about personal views of author based on the learnings from his life.
