A seemingly ordinary young man forced to become a guru takes a leap of faith and sets off with his followers on a taxing journey that changes their mindsets and lives forever. Inspired by the carefree life of a sparrow, reluctant guru Partibhan takes off on a 600 kilometre expedition on foot to test his theory of practical spirituality. He believes that human beings can become powerful creators, but the desire to secure the future makes them mere survivors. However, survival isn’t the only goal of life. A much bigger role, a higher calling awaits us. Will Guru Partibhan and his disciples complete the journey? Will they discover their true potential and find everlasting joy? Looks at the importance of spirituality in today's fast paced world. A must read for all those feeling burnt out and wondering about the ‘higher purpose’ of their lives. The story of a young man who finds his calling in life, written in a relatable manner.
Review
SUNDAY PIONEER: "The book explores the higher meaning of life and is refreshingly approachable because it stays clear from being preachy, the handicap of most books on spirituality."

"Ranked 22 among the 'Best South Asian Fiction' at Goodreads: goodreads.com/list/show/48.Best_South_Asian_Fiction" -Goodreads
