This book is an illuminating sequel to the author's earlier well-researched 'Journey of the Upanishads to the West', both focusing on the glorious Oriental literary heritage to the world at large.
Desire, want, is the father of all misery. Desires are bound by the laws of success and failure. Desires must bring misery. The great secret of true success, of true happiness, is this: the person who asks for no return, the perfectly unselfish person, is the most successful.
-Swami Vivekananda
