The book has some very profound truths and jewels of spiritual wisdom conveyed through simple chapters.
Each chapter conveys a simple yet powerful message that will resonate with any spiritual seeker who is on a quest. Even if one doesn't resonate with all the jewels (droplets), one is sure to absorb atleast one powerful droplet from the various chapters. Some of these droplets include - The power of the company you keep (association or sangat), importance of detachment from Maya (illusionary world's over-entanglements), or spiritual parenting, or the concept of living like a lotus flower with the head above the dirty water, or whether it's the constant craving of the soul for its divine mother.
I believe the book is quite advanced in its spiritual revelations. But the beauty is in how simply each droplet of wisdom is explained without making it over complicated. Some readers might get one thing, others might get ten things out of this book. It's an easy read that finishes in a couple of hours and keeps you gripped.
Personally, I really liked the droplet in chapter 10 which talks of the concept of TINA. The full form of TINA, as coined by the author, is 'There is no alternative'. It's a problem that resides in most of us in some area of life where we are stuck and have virtually given up. Outwardly we appear happy and peaceful, inwardly in the deep subconscious, we are living the pain of some big compromise and keep saying to ourselves - TINA. There is always a TINA issue that is embedded somewhere deep within, something we are stuck in, something we are not able to solve, something that we've given all our faith and love to make it work, but now we've given up and pushed it deep inside the subconscious mind where it just lays there like a thorn long forgotten. We all have our TINAs. There is a storm beneath the calm ocean. I liked how the author could actually coin a term for it! TINA. And asks us to become aware of it and perhaps use the combination of awareness and acceptance to heal it. (There could be other ways of healing it - boldness, not giving up, rising to your truth and fighting against all odds, prayers, surrender to the higher source etc) but the first thing is to identify the TINA area within us and become aware of this issue that hasn't gone away anywhere even if we closed our eyes to it and said - There is no alternative.
Overall, highly recommended for any spiritual seeker on a quest to learn more about the world beyond what we see with our two eyes.
