Books by Alex Mathew

Ordinarily, things do not happen the way we want them to happen. They do happen the way they happen not because we want them to happen that way but because that's the way things happen. We loathe letting things happen in any other way other than how we want them to happen. Most of us do not have the time to take a look at ourselves. We do not have time to 'see' ourselves. This book is for encouraging ourselves to look for the specific purpose of looking to see even the unseen. Because we fail to see--to know--and do not care to understand the existential meaning and ontic purpose of the mode-of-being-in-the-world, we lose our mooring and start practicing undesirable ways of living. Some turn into self-praisers, some get busy creating victims and programing them, ignoring and denying the ever-present sufficiency of peace and love--being blind to it. "A great take away from this book is that meaningful reflections are within touching distance of everyone one of us; we do not have to be professional or trained philosophers to embark on it." - Rev. (Dr) Valson Thampu
