Retired engineer Gopi Menon is an author and a Contrarian Thinker, who asks a lot of uncomfortable questions, about traditionally accepted practices such as religion, ritualized prayer, God, the afterlife, and so on.
Although he had wanted to write a book right from childhood, it was a long, rocky, and winding road to publishing his very first book, at the age of 70!
In fact, it took a near-death experience (while in an ambulance which took all of three hours to get to the nearest hospital), that made him vow to publish a book - if he managed to survive that arduous trip!
He did survive and finally published his first book Daily Happy Living, followed soon after by his second book called The GOD Soliloquy.
This year he has just published his latest book entitled Back to GOD, Away from Religion in April 2021, which managed to make it to Amazon rank #1 in Agnosticism (Kindle) and #3 in Rationalism Philosophy, in May 2021.
He has been married to his wife for 47 years and they live in Malaysia. They have been blessed with three sons and four wonderful grandchildren.
