More than a decade ago, I stumbled upon an awesome 20-page children's picture book by an education books publisher stating the basic facts about the universe, solar system, and the earth. After that, I was naturally attracted to books dealing with the universe, history, psychology, philosophy, randomness, probabilistic thinking, scientific thinking, human biases, and heuristics. I realized that my passion was to learn more and more about human existence, human thinking, and human purpose.
Seeing people imprisoned in the walls of their irrational beliefs always pained me. One book I found missing on bookshelves was a book which tells me everything relevant to understand human life - origin, thinking, and purpose - with a right mix of science and philosophy so that I can replace 'borrowed beliefs' with 'authentic conclusions'. I focused my learning and research on this aspect and started building the link.
I have been working on this book since April 18, 2010. In 2014, I started writing articles and blogs but soon stopped to concentrate on the book. I have thoroughly enjoyed this journey of learning, understanding, thinking, and venting. It has been a fulfilling experience.
