It was fascinating. It en-thrilled me through out and I went through it the same day I started it. I had downloaded it some days backe in the university and it was lying in my flash drive. Today the power to my room was cut off and I had ran out of charge in my cell so teethering was not possible. So just for a moment I started reading the Alchemist (in pdf) from my notebook. As I started and read a few pages I lost into it. It was only after my notebook went out of charge that I came back to senses. Promptly I went to mend the wires to restore electricity supply and after connecting the notebook I read the book till the end. Towards the end I accept to be in a hurry as I wanted to know how the end was but I was able extract some best line out: here those are:
“And, when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.”
“When someone makes a decision, he is really diving into a strong current that will carry him to places he had never dreamed of when he first made the decision. “
“The boy and his heart had become friends, and neither was capable now of betraying the other.”
“When you want something with all your heart, that’s when you are closest to the Soul of the World. It’s always a positive force.”
“I don’t live in either my past or my future. I’m interested only in the present. If you can concentrate always on the present, you’ll be a happy man. Life will be a party for you, a grand festival, because life is the moment we’re living now.
“Tell your heart that the fear of suffering is worse than the suffering itself. And that no heart has ever suffered when it goes in search of its dreams, because every second of the search is a second’s encounter with God and with eternity"
“I learned that the world has a soul, and that whoever understands that soul can also understand the language of things. I learned that many alchemists realized their destinies, and wound up discovering the Soul of the World, the Philosopher’s Stone, and the Elixir of Life. But above all, I learned that these things are all so simple they could be written on the surface of an emerald.”
“There is only one thing that makes a dream impossible to achieve: the fear of failure.”
Read these and you will notice somthing strange........... that is you might start communicating with the soul of the world.
