    The one thing that changes everything

"Modern life is uniquely difficult — not because of any single crisis, but because the ordinary conditions of ordinary days quietly erode the capacities that a peaceful life requires. The good news, the news this book was written to carry, is that human beings have faced difficulty before. The underlying nature is old, and for it there exists a body of wisdom — thousands of years in the refining — that still works."

— from the Foreword

॥ ॐ शान्तिः शान्तिः शान्तिः ॥
