Gopi Menon is the award-winning author of Back to GOD, Away from Religion, the third book in his Joycentrix Series. 

Although an engineer most of his working life, after retirement he decided to write about his passion. From childhood, he had always asked a lot of uncomfortable questions about traditionally accepted practices such as religion, ritualized prayer, about God, and the afterlife. 

The revolutionary answers he discovered, after decades of searching, are what he shares in his books.

Although he had wanted to write a book from his childhood, it took a near-death experience to make him vow to publish a book. He did survive and finally published his first book 'Daily Happy Living' at the age of 71, followed soon after by his second book called 'The GOD Soliloquy'. 

Now in their twilight years, he and his wife have been married for 50 years, and live in Malaysia. They have been blessed with three wonderful sons and four lovely grandchildren.
