The quicklist

May be, its those orkut profiles that I saw, detailing people's favorite books and movies.. I just gave a casual thot to it.. whats the best way to come up with a list of books that I liked/impressed me ? .. well, type up the list as fast as I can, without trying to remember, w/o looking up anywhwere, right ?.. So here goes (in random order)

The Bhagavad Gita
Some upanishads
From the River of Heaven - David Fralwey
Many of teh Voice of India books- esp RJM vs BM by Koenraad Elst
The call of Gita - a small booklet by Swami Ranganathananda
Complete works of Swami Vivekananda- esp Lect from Colombo to Almora
Many works of Sri Aurodindo - esp India's Rebirth
Vedantic Tales - sister Gargi

A search in secret India - Paul Brunton
Freedom in exile - Dalai Lama
Freedom at Midnite - Dominique Lapiere and Larry Colins

The four series of Jonathan Seagul, Illusions, The Bridge across forever and One by Richard Bach
The DaVinci Code by Dan Brown
Kathasarith Saagaram (Mallu)
Some works of S. K Pottekkadu

..........

well, I might have "forgotten" many others, that means they aren't as relevant for this excercise :-) , even if they had profoundly impressed me at that time !!
