My favorite books read this year—not ranked in any particular order.

II. “Love, Freedom, Aloneness: The Koan of Relationships” by Osho
This book cured my loneliness.
Favorite Quote:
“Love arises out of aloneness.
Aloneness makes you overfull, love receives your gifts. Love empties you so that you can become full again.
Whenever you are emptied by love, aloneness is there to nourish you, to integrate you.
And this is a rhythm.”
- Osho
III. “Atmamun: The Path to Achieving The Bliss of The Himalayan Swamis. And The Freedom of A Living God” by Kapil Gupta
This book ruined my life and I'm grateful for it.
Favorite Quote:

For you are not the mind."
