The Irrelevant You

Both nature and the human life follow a cyclic pattern where nothing seems to last forever. The pleasure and pain, happiness and sadness, birth and death, honor and dishonor, prosperity and poverty, spring and fall, all follow a cyclic pattern. If you have one today, you shall have the other tomorrow. That is the reality of life. No one can escape it.

The Irrelevant You is a guide on how to deal with difficult situations in life, how to avoid divorce; how to handle isolation at home and in the office, how to live with less and excesses, and how to face life and death with dignity and lead a happy life even under painful conditions.

Always remember, there is no one like you in the entire universe, and you can remain relevant, all through your life, if you follow some simple rules of life. The most important: Accept imperfections as the natural traits of human life and conduct yourself in a selfless manner.

The book explores the various faculties of our minds and how one can harness the abundant energy available within us and solve even the most complex problems of life.

The author was born in India in a small village in UP. He completed his PhD from a university in the USA after his education at Delhi University and IIT Delhi. He is a scientist by profession, and most of his writings are a blend of science and theology. "Writing allows me to look inside myself, spend time with myself, and develop an intimate relationship with my own body and soul," he advocates.

The Irrelevant You is his third book. The first two books, The Inevitable Separation and Srimad Bhagavad Gita-Simplified were published by Partridge, a Penguin Random House Company. The Inevitable Separation provides an understanding of the nature of life and death, science and religion, equality and individuality, and the self-healing power of meditation. The new book deals with more contemporary topics like love, lust, irrelevance, showiness, stressed family life, humanity, cyclicity, affluence, and truism. The author believes that the answers to even the most complicated problems lie within us.
