About the Book
Higher Law is a collection of essays anchored on recollection of different life’s episodes. It consists of a series of responses to daily occurrence of human realities, unfolding in a most surprising twist of events. The author took it upon himself with enchantment to register the bits and pieces of human experiences and divulged them through dramatic reenactment in a literary way.
Higher Law is associated with author’s vocation but producing virtues beyond the line of human law.
“Higher law is simply an enigma, a spiritual experience beyond what lies on human facility, not on the letters of law that slays but on the spirit that whispers the promise of life, to its abundance.”
“Higher law transcends the routines of human lives, but shorter than the height of eternity. It is an encounter at the limbo where its ascent is met halfway by the descent of heaven. But higher law plucks its juice not from enchanted woods of knowledge, unknown to the world, but from fruits of human experience, a grasp of every eyewitness.”
Writing “Higher Law” is a author’s renewal of vow to intimate readers. Higher Law is another freeing experience from the confines of his profession towards human virtues and even beyond, a law that produces love.
