The erosion of positive, life-building values is a major problem facing the present day society. The various topics discussed in this book all point to holistic living, as opposed to modern living which is bereft of spiritual insight. The holistic attitude of life can be cultivated and stability and integrity of life can be actualized by sincere efforts irrespective of our station in life.
I am the thread that runs through all these pearls, and each pearl is a religion or even a sect thereof. Such are the different pearls, and God is the thread that runs through all of them; most people, however, are entirely unconscious of it.
-Swami Vivekananda
