"Wonderful perspective. Chock full of practical steps to creating harmony within and without. Meditation, daily mantras, methods of shifting thinking patterns, and much much more. I will be coming back to this book on a weekly basis as part of my spiritual practice."
"I'm not a fan of self-help books, so I don't read much about how to change or improve life for greater happiness. This book was transformational for me, though. Filled with practical wisdom conveyed in stories from the author's own spiritual journey, there is much to learn from and reflect on in this slim volume."
"This book lists stories and passages from Eknath's lectures and talks. Most of the stories are only a couple of pages but they really hit home with their message. The stories stem around Eknath's suggestions which are in line with his 8 point program for spiritual transformation. Such practical suggestions like slowing down, meditating on a spiritual passage daily, and reading spiritual work daily are parts of the program. If you take these words to heart you can't help but be transformed internally. With internal transformation comes external results.
When Easwaran started himself on the spiritual path he was merely a college professor. However, with daily practice and work he became a wise sage in later life. The steps listed in this book are intended to allow you to reach that same state of being. Also, you don't have to be of any religious persuasion to follow these steps.
Eknath was a big follower of Gandhi and that comes across clearly in these admonishments and suggestions for living a happier and more spiritual life. It was Gandhi who said when asked for a message that his life was his message.
For no longer than what it will take to read this book it's a great return on your investment. I'd recommend it for anyone looking to have greater peace and a good set of practical suggestions to improve their lives."
