- Reviewed in India on 3 April 2025Verified PurchaseThe book gives wonderful insight of real life to be lived by all human beings to make their lives purposeful & meaningful.
Quoted anecdotes and examples make it more fathomable & make it easier for the reader to understand each chapter beyond the words as well. Thanks.
- Reviewed in India on 19 February 2024Verified PurchaseThis is very helpful book and it has covered all the aspects of our lives with detailed information. You can get any answer that you are struggling right now.
- Reviewed in India on 14 January 2024Verified PurchaseIf you are someone who is planning to visit a marriage counselor, I would firstly suggest you to go thru this book. The way Swami jee has explained the concepts of relationships is something which even the best counselor on the planet can't. The only reason why Swami jee's concept sticks into your brain is because he always has a story to support the core idea of any topic. Thank you Swami jee for making such a wonderful compilation 🙏🏼
- Reviewed in India on 17 December 2020Verified PurchaseBrilliant as always by swamiji..waiting for his next publication . It's a total different journey along while reading his efforts he had put in to script this book.
- Reviewed in India on 11 June 2019Verified PurchaseThank you Amazon for delivery of books, as usual :) I might be a little late in reviewing, but ‘A Fistful of Love’ is worth reading many times. Why? Because it is a timeless classic to open up our innate nature – ‘Love’.
In the foreword written by Swami, He asks us a very important question – what is our life’s worth? I ponder over this question every day and come up with insightful answers daily. But really what is ‘life’s worth’ to me and others around me? In one short word, it is ‘Love’. Since childhood, I have known love of parents and sibling, love of ambition and the burning desire to discover my purpose in life. But on 17th December 2016, at the launch of ‘A million thoughts’ by Om Swami, I discovered ‘Divine Love’. My life was never the same again. I am slowly transforming in Love. I saw and felt that Divine Love scriptures talk about! So I hurriedly brought all of Swami’s books. Words fail me every time I talk about ‘Om Swami’. He isn’t just a mystic or monk. He is the embodiment of Love Himself. And the perfect example is His book ‘A Fistful of Love’. Carefully written with loads of brilliant insights and humour, Swami describes short capsules of love in each and every chapter. Swami further gives a lot of practical solutions and pragmatic approaches in dealing with the ebbs and flows of emotions that stand as by-products in relationships. His tremendous Love can be felt in each and every word – He further elucidates on how mortal love can be cultivated and can ultimately reach the state of Divine Love.
Please read this book multiple times. This book isn’t a one-time read at all. Hence, there was a delay in writing the review and I keep this book beside me always!
While stumbling on my own path to self-discovery, I figured out this wonderful Kindness and Meditation app – “Black Lotus” launched by Beloved Om Swami. Hurry, download this app and find out how ‘love’ can be experienced through meditation, chanting and doing random acts of kindness.

- Reviewed in India on 31 March 2017Verified Purchaseis it possible to read a book and get enlightened? I never ever thought so, for me enlightment was a far away place which is very, very difficult to attain. well, after reading and meditating what the author says in this "' fistful of love', one can have enlightment in the palm of his hand instantly.
Beware of this book and the author. both are very contagious and will catch you off guard. This book will sweep you off your feet with love, peace and bliss which will break open all the walls and conditions of the mind which will make the mind a mute spectator as the flow of love and bliss will slowly fill your heart. it did that for me.
it's not that I do not have troubles and problems to solve in my life. I have tons and tons of it. it's just that after reading this book they are still there but my mind is not attached to them and I am seeing them at a distance as I am engulfed in peace and bliss. if only you can see through your heart about what I mean. the moment I forget my seat of consciousness, all these troubles and problems come rushing and take the centre of activity and I lose my balance and get entangled. this has made me realize that enlightment is not something to be attained but a journey throughout my life until it becomes my second nature.
this book is a decoded version of all the holy scriptures that exists in this world, the author has compressed all of them within his fist and handed it out to whomsoever needs it, therefore the title of the book is apt. read this book as slow as possible and reflect on it as much as possible and practice it in day to day life, it reveals how much we are stuck with conditioning of our own mind. this book will set you free!!! it has lightened my heart and I don't feel the burden of worries and troubles anymore.
I feel like throwing away this garb of samsara and take the garb of sanyasa, then again as I reflect the wisdom from this book , what does it matter whether I am a samsari or sanyasi as long as I am in peace, bliss. this lightness of being is really unbearable and makes me want to go further and break open the cocoon of ego to fly into the sky of pure unalloyed bliss.
go set yourself free and lighten your heart with this book.
I met this author and he is nothing but truth personified and his aura of love will engulf you and fill your heart with love and bliss.
I consider myself gifted to have met him at this point of time in history when darkness and irrationality is raging in each and every aspect of humanity.

5.0 out of 5 stars Loving this book!
Verified PurchaseI have not finished this book as yet but it's fantastic so far. Every evening I read a story to my 2 kids (14 & 12) and we discuss it after. Each story is short and engaging. They both said they are loving the stories and they seem to understand pretty well. I am so grateful that I came to know about Om Swami and about his books. His words have the power to instill positivity in anyone who truly listens. I thank you! I do not hesitate to recommend this book. You will not regret!

5.0 out of 5 stars An Eternal guide. Read it and find for yourself.
Verified PurchaseSmall snippets of wisdom woven into a beautiful book. You will want to come back to it , time and again whenever you feel down or pensive.
The simplicity and truthfulness of the words is captivating and magnetic.
The definition of relationships, love and life that media has given us had ruined us of our peace. If You are looking for real answers, truth, insightful wisdom. This book is for You. You will never want to turn anywhere else for answers. A must read
