Living Open-Handed by Shruthi Parker

Living Open-Handed by Shruthi Parker is a treasure of a book. It helps you rethink how you approach challenges in you life, relationships, and the quest for satisfaction. The book presents an intriguing idea. It is to have an open hand and heart. This means being generous, vulnerable, and graceful in all things.

At the core of the novel’s story lies another theme and it is connected to the idea of “living open-handed”. It sounds simple. But, the author says it's an attitude. It's a willingness to surrender control and not try to know how things will work out. Shruthi Parker has an interesting idea. She says that people over-identify with things like accomplishments, belongings, and friendships. This makes them terrible life spoilers.

The fact that makes the book remarkable, besides the subject, is the honest voice and the life of the author. Shruthi shares her life in a unique way that is able to inspire anyone with change, you do not read her work, you live it. Her work is full of love and an understanding of her audience. This makes her guidance both practical and transformative.

Living Open Handed is an enlightening book. It emphasizes that it's not about the self. Instead, it offers a view on existence in this world.

The book is about:
  1. Releasing attachments.
  2. Living with purpose.
  3. Choosing optimism over pessimism.
This is Shruthi's core idea. It is universal. The empty strands exist to comfort those who seek rest.

It is a must-read for those seeking books on personal development, spirituality, or self-help. There can be no clarity and beauty without practicing these ideals. So, the book aims to instill them in our practice.

This literature is a great motivator. It hammers home that, if you resist the flow, you will live an average life. I highly recommend this book to anyone seeking a greater purpose in life.
