An inspirational selection of
quotations which have influenced and shaped the thinking of one of India’s
most learned men—A.P.J. Abdul Kalam. From his schooldays to this day, when he

The Guiding Light, he chooses the finest examples of writings from the
numerous books, religious texts, philosophical tracts and poetry that he has
read over the years. These words have impacted and shaped his thinking,
helped him in times of need and made him the person he is. He has quoted from
these works in his writings and lectures that have inspired millions of
people he has met all over the world Included here are extracts from the
works of writers as diverse as Rabindranath Tagore, Albert Einstein,
Friedrich Nietzsche, Jiddu Krishnamurti, William Shakespeare, John Milton and
Mahatma Gandhi; as well as lines from the Holy Koran, Bhagavad Gita, the
Bible, the Thirukural and a myriad other works. Eclectic, erudite and
thought-provoking, The Guiding Light is a treasure house of wisdom and deep
reflection. Beautiful and immortal, the pieces here will inspire generations
of readers as they have inspired Dr Kalam.
