ABOUT THIS BOOK

Silence has a definition of its own. It has its own quality and dimension. The realm of silence begins beyond the boundaries of words. There is great power and wisdom in growing to the point where silence becomes our friend. It is in silence that we best listen and a great many of life’s secrets can only be learnt in silence. Silence is a source of great strength. It is the ultimate technique of communication for those who realize. Silence, when it filters into someone, becomes his spiritual persona.
Alarm of Silence is a collection of poetry that speaks of the various shades of life. It talks of the mysteries of life and death, triumph and defeat, heaven and hell. Salvation, the poet says, is the final aim of life. Birth and death are mere repetitions. The poet is alarmed by the destruction spreading through this trembling world, where men torment men for pleasure. With its evocative language and imagery, Manik Munde’s poetry will resonate deeply with readers and leave a lasting impression on their minds.
