Rightly stated a spirituality bookstore simply could not exist. When the correct definition of spirituality eluded most, how could one make a book store for spirituality! Even if one makes a bookstore relating to spirituality, how many buyers would be there!
In the last about 150 years amongst 7000 million people existing world over only two spiritual stalwarts successfully indulgence in spirituality detailed in Bhagavad Gita to reach cosmic end of life, 8.4 millionth manifestation to gain enlightenment in their lifetime Sri Ramakrishna Paramhansa and Maharshi Ramana.
Spirituality is not only difficult to follow but demands highest level of patience, persistence and perseverance that could ever be practiced by mankind. Furthermore spirituality was never a part-time job as most human beings world over think. To successfully indulge in spirituality one needs the mettle and grit exhibited by Swami Vivekananda.
Any bookstore that had books, literature relating to Mahavira, Sri Ramakrishna Paramhansa and Maharshi Ramana sufficed. Following these three spiritual stalwarts alone human beings can easily cut across shackles of Samsara (worldly life) to reach state of enlightenment. Indulgence in Bhagavad Gita of Hinduism is foremost of all requirements.
To demolish ego within in totality we do not need a book. To overpower five senses and mind forever we do not need a book. To practice physical aspect of celibacy sincerely and effectively one can indulge in books of Napoleon Hill like “law of success”, a book par excellence. 90% celibacy is always practiced mentally. Eradicating flow of negative thoughts to our brain in totality is what absolute celibacy all about. None can practice absolute celibacy through a book.
Indulgence in kundalini awakening results in activation of dormant lying portions of brain! Energizing Kundalini also cannot be learnt from a book. It has to be realized from within by practice of celibacy, absolute celibacy and contemplation on wisdom contained in Bhagavad Gita. Only then one can expect to follow principles of spirituality to reach God in their lifetime.
One more bookstore that a spiritual traveler ever requires to visit is Gita press, Gorakhpur, India. Authentic commentaries and translations from intelligent writers on Bhagavad Gita and Upanishads (independent spiritual treatises) are available from Gita press. One can go to Gita press bookstore in person (available in major cities of India) and choose an edition that suits our appetite, our thinking pattern. Gita press also has online bookstore.
