Hey one more thing
These things are hard to explain
For some it seems strange... to swallow
The frontier of our minds
Is the last place we find
But maybe the first place we should go

Naik,
Jonathan Livingston Seagull is a simple book with a simple message put in a very innovative way. that said, i dont find it to be a very deep or philosophical read, maybe good for one reading, maybe two..after that, its just too dry.
Hmm....I liked the book...but only read it twice.
I do recommend it every chance I get though.
I haven't read Illusions. The person that told me to read Seagull said Illusions wasn't as good so I didn't bother.
I picked up Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance but haven't had the time to start it yet. Perhaps I should find it first.......

"i dont find it to be very deep or philosophical"...
bava tum ko kitni depth chaiay?? goDay goDay ya moonDay moonDay???per dhyaan rahe kahiN doob na jao:)meri manoo to stick wid this giTay giTay deep book....jeans ko ooper fold kiay bina hi pani meiN se guzar jao:)aqalmandi yahi hei:)
ok ok lemme be serious:)try meiN kiya harj hei...
hmmm kher i read this book almost a yr ago after Muzna has recommended it here on the forum(read it twice)....i was fascinated by the book at the time(now i wonder why)...i bought 2 more copies one for my niece(6 yrs old) and one for my nephew(9 yrs old). My niece just turned 7 last week and she still thinks that its the best book she have ever read, even better than "Secret Garden"...which is 2nd best:)My nephew doesn't like it anymore....
kher i read the book for the third time couple of weeks ago and since then i am wondering that why i liked this book so much a yr ago:)
The book has nothing to offer to a mature adult reader...u r right, its a very simple book carrying a very simple message, "You can do anything u want, u can achieve anything u want, if u try hard enuff"...:)
and there is nothing philosophic about that message either....but i'll still say that it is a good book for kids....especially for teenagers:)
...and for u queery, i'll recommend "Sidhartha" by Herman Hesse....jao bava moonDay moonDay pani meiN chubiyaaN maro:-P per dhyaan se:)
