Souls from Mercury is a remarkable nonfiction book written by a man who has spent the last thirty years teaching meditation and relaxation science. Raju Ramanathan graciously invites us to awaken from suffering the illusion of life through beautifully crafted spiritual insights that are backed by scientific facts and compelling real-life experiences. He shows eloquently how we can open our hearts during our most difficult times and emerge with great poise, growth, and grace. As you read the teachings on how the physical world relates to the spiritual world and how to control your emotions, you realize you are more than just a man or woman. You'll realize that you are a conscious, growing soul with amazing mystical abilities that have yet to be discovered.

I applaud the author for using straightforward language in his narration. The excellent word choice made Souls from Mercury sound more like a conversation than a written account. Raju Ramanathan emphasized key points in his writing with stunning, brilliant images and tables that infused life into the descriptive passages. I think that this feature significantly increased the book's inventiveness and contributed largely to its positive outcome. Each episode serves as a prelude to the next by presenting all the topics of common interest in a graded manner. This feature will offer readers convenient stopping points that will enable them to take in and reflect on everything they learn from each section. I learned rare and beautiful insights into the dynamics of preserving happy relationships and a fulfilling personal life. I also gained a basic understanding of Indian religion, and I even picked up a few lovely Indian words that I intend to use in my future conversations. Not only do I value this piece of work, but I also feel honored that it introduced me to this wonderful author, whose writing has changed the way I see the world.
