Welcome to BHEJAKHOL

June 20, 2009

Hi.
Let us quickly get over with the introduction formality which we find rather cliched but unavoidable.

We are a team of two enthusiastic readers who like every other 22 year old guy, think they have what it takes to change the world and change the mindset of its people.
History will be witness, if and when we manage to achieve that objective !!
For now we would like to be known here simply by our names –
ANKUR KAKKAR and SIDDHARTH GAUBA.

The content of this blog will primarily focus on books and everything about books because we believe that
A MAN IS THE SUM OF WHAT HE HAS READ IN HIS LIFETIME

in the words of famous blogger – leo babauta
“Reading is a joy. It is a time of peace, of adventure, of exploration, of just enjoying a good story. If you learn to love reading, as I do and as many others do, it’s not really a habit you have to develop — it’s something you look forward to doing each day.
Is reading a book better than playing outside? Better than a good conversation? Better than exploring websites on a topic that excites you? Better than exploring nature? Better than playing sports? Better than drawing or painting or playing music or dancing?
I don’t think so. I think each activity has its own benefits and pleasures.
Reading might be better than many activities if your main concern is educating yourself and improving your chances of succeeding in various careers. However … reading is more than a means to an end … reading is an end in and of itself. It’s a joy, and that’s how you should approach it.
If you gain a side benefit of becoming better prepared for school and life, well … so much the better! ”

Hence, it is no wonder that the man who invented the printing press –Johannes Gutenberg is hailed as the most influential man in history because that single invention in 1439 was going to change the way humans learned and educated themselves.
