Synopsis

What would you do if your life turned upside down overnight?Witnessing the devastation of 9/11 before his eyes and narrowly escaping death, Kushal’s life was never going to be the same again. Suddenly, all his pursuits felt meaningless and he felt a void within him like he had never felt before-until one day, when he reluctantly decided to spend an afternoon with a spiritual master in New York City.From being a Wall Street trader immersed in the material world to embarking on a quest to find answers to life’s biggest questions, Kushal Choksi writes about his doubts, struggles and revelations on a spiritual path as a left-brained sceptic. On a Wing and a Prayer is one such (true) account of one man finding himself on a fifteen-year long journey shadowing the spiritual leader Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar.

I got lured to pick this one because the top review said, “it’s like, Autobiography of a Yogi”, another book I have tried reading twice in the past but couldn’t get through. There are some bits that will give you an additional perspective, but because spirituality is extremely personal and sometimes......more
