Review:
‘Erase yourself
In order to
Praise Yourself.’
The captivating Pichvai illustration of Shreenathji gracing the cover instantly captured my heart. This book felt like more than just a reading choice; it was a calling—a truly exquisite experience. Poetic Letters from God by Shruti Alok is a mesmerizing collection of poems complemented by enchanting illustrations that beautifully weave together spirituality and art. It’s as if the universe is speaking directly to us through these verses, offering a rare glimpse into that divine connection we all seek.
As a short yet inspiring read, the poems invite deep reflection, resonating like a spiritual journey. The overarching themes of hope, trust, and healing permeate the collection, offering solace and comfort as we navigate life’s inevitable challenges. Each poem is a gem, radiating its unique depth, inviting readers to truly feel and connect with the emotions expressed within. The simplicity and authenticity of Shruti’s words make this a profound experience, prompting moments of reflection and introspection.
Shruti’s enchanting writing style effortlessly creates a place in the reader’s heart, urging us to pause and ponder life’s mysteries. The illustrations add an extra layer of beauty, bringing the words to life in a visually stunning manner. I particularly appreciated the poems penned in Hindi, accompanied by English translations, which added richness to the reading experience.
One of my favourite poems, “Darling! You cannot hold everything,” offers a poignant reminder to flow with life rather than force it—as Flow is greater than Force. This theme of surrender and trust resonates deeply, making the collection all the more impactful. I craved for more poems as I read them, wishing the experience could last longer.
In all, Poetic Letters from God is not merely a collection of poems; it is a comforting and thought-provoking masterpiece that offers spiritual insight and inspiration. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone seeking a literary gem that deserves to be cherished and revisited.
