With honesty, courage, and humour, he narrates the highly intense and traumatic events of his life just as effortlessly as he describes the lighter, fun-filled ones. Sanjay beautifully ties his realisations with eastern philosophical teachings and key scientific findings of the 20th century, taking the reader on a journey that comes around full circle, leaving the reader with profound and highly relevant realisations. This book is an essential read for anyone dealing with c-PTSD or childhood trauma, as it provides a refreshingly new perspective on how one can potentially deal with it, culminating in a masterstroke that helped Sanjay cure himself. Besides, it has the potential to help those who care for such people and have a desire to develop a deeper understanding of the situation and how they can support the victim. Finally, it is a phenomenal read for anyone interested in/ is on the journey of experiencing the celebration of life, its ups and downs, and the deeper questions it presents, through an emotional, social, scientific and philosophical lens.
