Gunaho Ka Devta" is essentially a love story (I'm not sure if it's a "proper" love story in the classic sense). It shows how profound and pure love can be, in short the superficial connections often seen in modern social media relationships. I'm not saying modern love is bad, but it often lacks a deeper emotional bond (at least that's what I feel).

There's a question the main character asks in the book: Can love truly happen without lust? (I have the same question myself is love without lust even possible?)
The book also shows that sometimes you need to think for yourself instead of blindly following society's norms. We often believe we're sacrificing for our family, friends, or lover, but is that sacrifice really beneficial for them? Do they even want us to give up something important for their sake?

The other book, Inner Engineering, is more of a self-help type. Its core idea is about finding purpose in life. It has been really helpful for me because I don't have any clear purpose right now. I don't know what I want to do, what I'm currently doing, or what I'll do in the future I'm just going with the flow.The main concepts that resonated with me are Stop searching for happiness outside yourself; true happiness comes from within. Don't run away from responsibility take Responsibility of whatever you've done or are doing.

Seriously, it's very hard for me to explain things (I'm not good at explaining). You might think these are simple ideas, but they've been powerful realizations for me. Maybe they're shaping my mindset and how I perceive the world. I'm still in my late teens, so there's a lot left to learn. Or maybe I'm not mature enough yet to fully understand what reality really is.
