The big headed online shipping companies....I Can't comprehend their stupid standards... I understand the company follows a certain norm to maintain the credibility of their online products and reviews displayed but the review team does more or less a blind job. 
I shared the review about the book "Bring Out The Magic in Your Mind" by Al Koran. Here is the reply from the team:
Thank you for posting your review for "Bring Out The Magic In Your Mind", dated 25 July 2012.

We noticed that the review you had shared with us is also displayed on various other sites on the internet. We don't accept such reviews even though they might be written by the same person because,

1. Flipkart may lose its credibility if others, aware of duplicate reviews, assume that Flipkart.com (or a Flipkart.com affiliate) is copying reviews of genuine authors to promote the site and products.

2. Search engines (like Google, Bing and Yahoo) penalize duplicate content on newer sites like Flipkart.com in favor of older ones.

As a result, we have removed your review from our website. Could we request that you post a fresh, original review, if you are keen to have your opinion represented in this particular product page?

We are in the process of rolling out a customer-centric forum welcoming your experiences and feedback on our services and products. In the meanwhile, please feel free to share your concerns or queries with us atcs@flipkart.com.

Yours Sincerely,
Somanna
Customer Review Team
Flipkart.com

What strikes me hard is how can this be a copy paste? I wrote the review myself. If the intelligent Somanna means someone else also has given a positive feedback and similar opinion, how the hell does it matter? Can 2 people not share common opinion? AND how on earth is that a copy paste?

Bring Out the magic in your mind-- Al Koran





2 days ago, I finished reading the book by Al Koran "Bring out the magic in your mind"
I have mixed opinion about this book... The first 15 chapters were mind blowing...very inspiring....
The visualization techniques, the need to believe in the power of the subconscious, the power of affirmations, the booster effect of influencing the self ability to find greater happiness.....(I can go on)... were simply awesome. 
I am yet to witness the success of some of my projects but what I have been experiencing is also priceless. I feel more confident, happier and prosperous...What I appreciate the most is the insight he has given in the book gives us a deep appreciation towards the teachings of Master Choa's Kriyashakthi. Simple teachings of my Guru has been embedded with such intense, deep and vast impact and meaning. These priceless teachings have been imparted to us in such simple formula, which works out so evidently. I hope to manifest the greatness with me through the better understanding of Master's KS courses gained through this book.


However, I found the chapters 16-20 quiet boring, but 21-27 were informative.
Having said that I didn't see the need to quote some of the reviews on Al Koran. Most of them were irrelevant but some of course leaves an impact to believe in the content of the book.


Over all it was worth reading.
