Summary: The Seven Spiritual...

FlashBooks, Dean Bokhari

Book Summary of The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success by Deepak Chopra 
 
The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success: A Practical Guide to the Fulfillment of Your Dreams by Deepak Chopra 
 
About 
The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success is a classic book by Deepak Chopra. Chopra has a way of taking deep spiritual concepts and simplifying them, offering you just the right metaphors and examples to help you grasp the ideas. And because of how easy it is to understand (relative to most spiritual texts) and apply the principles outlined by Chopra, practically anyone can learn from the Big Ideas in this book. The main idea behind the book is to develop a symbiotic relationship between spiritual success + financial success… the idea that the two don’t jive well with one another is often the cause of either moral or financial distress for a lot of people. Hopefully, this summary can help shed light on how important it is to marry these two types of success—spiritual as well as financial. 
 
Tweetable Summary  
There’s an easier way to get what you want from life—all you’ve gotta do is get in sync with nature + the universe.

Retreat from Kabul - The First...

George Bruce

Afghanistan, 1839. 
 
 
 
The British East India Company dominated the Indian subcontinent, yet they were not secure in their position. 
 
 
 
Holding unjustified fears that Russia threatened India's north-western border, the Company decided to make a pre-emptive strike and ensure that this menace would be stopped by a strong pro-British Afghanistan. 
 
 
 
Thousands of British and Indian troops invaded this mountainous land to intervene in a succession dispute between emir Dost Mahommed Khan and former emir Shah Shuja-ool-Mulk. After capturing Kabul they placed the cruel, but pro-British Shah Shuja upon the throne once again, and supported him with an overwhelming military presence. 
 
 
 
However, the proud and ruthless warriors of Afghanistan were unwilling to submit themselves to British control and within three years they had risen up against their oppressors in one of the bloodiest revolts in history. 
 
 
 
George Bruce delves into a vast array of published and unpublished nineteenth century sources to uncover this campaign in which very few British survivors made it back through the snow-laden passes to India.
