Summary

How can I find purpose in my life?

Many of us go through our lives unsure of what we are for, struggling every day to find meaning. But the timeless wisdom of Indian culture shows us another way.

In Hindu philosophy, there are four goals that all human beings strive for: virtue, prosperity, love and freedom. If you can find the balance between them, you will discover the Four-Way Path – and begin a journey into true and lasting fulfilment.

Inspiring and comforting, this book honours some of the oldest and greatest spiritual practices to explain how the Four-Way Path can awaken your purpose, free you from stress and fear, and find lasting peace. It will unlock a life full of happiness and meaning.
