Conversations With God series

Eat Pray and Love by elizabeth (importance of meditation)

12 Rules of Life :An Antidote to Chaos by Jordan Peterson

The Origin by Dan Brown (shows weakness of religions and science)

Try Professor Puran Singh

And Professor Kapur Singh

Modern Man spirit of man

While some of these are good for the purpose of the OP (transforming from atheist to spiritual), I fail to understand why you would recommend a Dan Brown novel (specifically The Origin).

How could that book possibly help in transforming from theist to spiritual? The whole point of the book is that a computer model supposedly "shows" that life originated from chemicals, and that consequently there is no God the Creator.

Aside from the fact this is not a science book, just Dan Brown's disturbed scribbles, how's this spiritual?

Mathematicians have also proven, using similar methods, that evolution occurs at a rate astoundingly greater than mathematical probability accounts for, basically proving design. 

Not that that has anything to do with the book being or not being a good recommendation to the OP.

It helps me as a religious person to not fall into the God of the Gaps theory.

Also to see which mistakes i as a religious person should not make that people of other religions have made. Such as interpreting their scriptures literally. Such as maintaining that God is scientifically provable. I mean the the laws of science are so ephemeral. Newtons laws dont apply at quantum level,  quantum mechanics cant apply to macroscopic levels. Time is not absolute. How could God be defined by wat he created?

The books also ends on a positive note showing how religion will be needed to solve ethical dilemmas created by science. And how science's pinnacle AI could be corruot and how humans will be betrayed by it. 

Also it helps us prepare that if one day evolution is proven, life can be created from nothing, how and why to continue believing in our scriptures.

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
