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.
The important thing is how much less you think of the body, of yourself as matter -- as dead, dull, insentient matter; how much more you think of yourself as shining immortal being. The more you think of yourself as spirit, the more eager you will be to be absolutely free from matter, body and senses. This is the intense desire to be free.
