The book Ignited Minds talks about his experience of meeting the numerous students from all over the country.
Throughout his book, Dr. Kalam has insisted on the power of imagination and the power of dream. He further emphasises this point by asking the youth to look for opportunities in challenges thrown at them and be responsible for their actions irrespective of the result. The most inspiring lines from the book quoted as such are, “When something is at stake, the human mind gets ignited.” “Ignite your minds and think big.” The book is not only an inspiration to think big but is laden with the feeling of patriotism and urges one to consider nation and its vision to be bigger than an individual, to reach to the higher self within and to keep aspirations high because “we are, what we think we are”.
This book is a must read for anyone who wants to have a peek into the great potential our country has, the diversity which makes it so rich, the great potential which is hidden in the various corners of the country and how the realisation of one’s higher self within us and the faith in our dreams can take us to places. With real life experiences described in a very simple language, Dr. Kalam has again done a wonderful job in creating ripples and disturbance in the minds of the youth which has been dormant for a while now.
