Description
This book collects excerpts from many of His Holiness Sri Sri Ravishankar’s talks. The Journey for this collection began in New Delhi and ended in Rishikesh, India, and included many passages around the world.
In this book, Sri Sri discusses topics ranging from doubt and fear to love and dispassion. He describes what it means to be on a spiritual path-a path of service, sadhana, and surrender. He leads us through an understanding of God and back to our inner Self that which we really seek, often without knowing.
