We are also enlightened by the teachings portrayed in them, and they sometimes even set the path for our lives based on this enlightenment. However, reading regularly by oneself is easier said than done. Furthermore, reading books on a broader spectrum than what one’s interested in is something even more difficult to do. More and more people have been reading and having discussions within book clubs all around. There are people who take a further step and pursue positive development by planning a variety of events and taking part in a society with reading as a medium.
