Solitude

Life without a company of woman is really tough, especially if we miss one. I have just completed a novel on a similar theme. But what I wanted to convey here is that of a book which i am reading now. That book may change my life forward. I believe till now I tried to pick up books from a broad range. Even though I read books in Islam, I had to read contemporary literature in order to understand the nature of life. Various aspects of life is not covered "directly" in any of the books in Islam which I had read - matter of fact I could not get from the translation of Quran which I follow. I had to read Quran, history, philosophy, novels, short stories, current affairs, blogs, mathematics, etc. to quench my thirst which I am doing at my leisure. But this book from Imam Gazhali a 11th century scholar, a Sufi, a traveler has something different to say. I am reading his "Ihya' ulum al-din" translated to Malayalam. This is a 40(or 36) volume book in Malayalam.
I just started with the first one. This is opening up a new thought direction in me. I don't want to label it to any. But this is dealing with the subjects my soul seeking for and it is in-depth. Matter of fact I may even redefine my area of reading after this. Don't know really, but I am bit excited!
