Throughout the flight, Amar zones in and out of scenes from his life-his highly successful career, his successes and failures as a human being. And for the first time, he starts to listen to the voice and fathom its deep and unshakable wisdom. He had heard the voice many times before in his life, but he was not listening then. He listens now. And he learns of the signal. And the noise. And their interplay. And he develops uncanny insights into the journey, the big one-the Journey of Life. He learns to appreciate it, to live it, to love it for all its beauty. All its promise. And all its imperfections. And the voice speaks again to Amar, saying, \"Remember, it's all good...This is all good.\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eMeant to start a process of inquiry, rather than to supply any concrete answers, The Journey...and the Voice, the Signal and the Noise may prompt readers to look deeper into their own lives.

Within each milestone that Amar takes in this book, Mr. Mehra teaches us how to best live our own unique lives and differentiate what is important to each of us (signal) and what just passes as everyday life (noise) that we need to deal with, but not be fixated on.\u003cbr\u003eI would recommend this book to anyone who believes that the 'fast track' is the sole purpose in life and is looking at an approach to be better grounded. Mr. Mehra's insightful story teaches us what the right path might be...but we have to find it in ourselves.\"\u003cbr\u003eJoel C.
