Sometimes wisdom is best served up like M&M candies, in small pieces that you can savor,
enjoy and hold in your hand. So it is with Vaishali's new book, "Wisdom Rising." It is a delightful, sweet,
and satisfying collection of brilliant articles and short stories, that like gem quality jewels,
are a thing of beauty, and a joy to behold.
The topics and subject matter are as wide and diverse as wisdom is infinite. Vaishali offers
everything from a test to see how Spiritually healthy you are; to an examination of what happens
when you die; to how humor is a Spiritual necessity; to Oscar Wilde; to paranormal and
non-ordinary reality experiences, and everything in between.
Vaishali has learned much about suffering from the many challenges in her life including being
diagnosed terminal twice. She has distilled the wisdom she
gained on her road to personal empowerment into a buffet of tasty reading treats.
As Vaishali likes to say, “Please, learn from my life, so you don’t have to
gather profound wisdom the way I did... which is the hard, ugly, highly unfashionable, painful way.”
Vaishali's trademark "out of the box" sense of humor and wild woman perspective runs rampant
throughout the book. Whether she is talking about the Nature of God or simply poking fun
at our own cultural insecurities and hypocrisies, Vaishali raises the bar on laugh out loud Spiritual wisdom.
The entertainment as well as the wisdom rises flawlessly together, inviting the reader to go deeper in
self-examination and showing up for their own life
