S-39 Tips to young lawyers : "The Inner Fire, faith, choice and modern-day living in Zoroastrianism"- a book by Justice Rohington F Nariman

"The Inner Fire, faith, choice and modern-day living in Zoroastrianism"- a book by Justice Rohington F Nariman.

One should also read books other than law books..preferably books by Judges and eminent Lawyers.

It is difficult to describe benefits. But you can make an experiments.

First you read any one book. You will immediately realise a shift in your world view.

The above book is about inner fire or the quest.
There is an Inner Fire in all of us to search for God.

In our childhood certain beliefs are planted in us. We follow those belief, but when we are mature, when we have developed Spirit of Inquiry, we need to read books outside our religion, to see the ultimate light.

Years ago I used to see a Gujarati  TV show on Parsi religion.

It's title in Gujarati was " Good Thoughts, Good Words, Good Actions".

Our life can change if we stick to above words.

In this program, I learned how to measure when we are nearer to God or when we are away from God.

It said, if you feel darkness in life, you are away from God.

If you see light everywhere in your life, you are nearer to God.

Recently I had bought a book from Amazon.com about basics of Parsi religion.

Just as there is a list of fundamental rights, they have a list of main duties.

The duty which I liked most, was duty TO REMAIN CLEAN all the time. Cleanliness is part of this religion.

And that is great. I have yet not read the book of "Inner Fire" which is released only yesterday,  but intend to read it.
