"""The goal may be distant, but awake, arise and stop not till the goal is reached."Swami Vivekananda was one of the most influential personalities of the 19th century. A charismatic spiritual leader, he influenced generations of youth with his words and deeds. Jnana Yoga speaks of the jnani who acknowledges the unity between the Brahman and the Atman. The devotee is different from the jnani: while the former follows the promptings of the heart, the latter uses the power of the mind to differentiate between the real and the unreal. Jnana Yoga, along with Karma Yoga, Bhakti Yoga and Raja Yoga, is considered a classic treatise on Hindu philosophy and reflects Vivekanada's divine insight that has inspired spiritual seekers through the ages.""

""While there are many novels of partition of India from the perspective of Punjab and Bengal, there are very few accounts of how the partition affected the Sindhis. The Sky in my heart is a story of suffering of Sindhis after partition, who, once displaced from their motherland, did not have any land they could call their own. It is a story of their unique struggles and their ability to move on and carve a place for themselves in new lands, through sheer industriousness. The Sky in my heart is equally a love story of a young boy's search for his lost beloved; his search guided by love and ethics, despite being surrounded by an atmosphere of hatred and mistrust. It is also a book of wisdom that narrates, simply - simplicity in language, clothes and food is a trademark of Sindhiyat - lessons on life and relationships.""
