People all around the world engage themselves, at some stage or other, in search for meaning beyond the finite and fleeting pleasures of their lives. How can they fulfil this spiritual hunger of the soul?  Swami Yatiswarananda, who was also a Vice-President of the Ramakrishna Order and an enlightened soul in his own right, explains the challenges on the path and the ways and means of overcoming them.
The elaborate ‘Introduction’ of the book under different subheadings elegantly orients even the lay reader into various aspects of spiritual life.
