The Path to Ananda: A Mystic's Guide to Unlimited Happiness (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9789357761888)

About the Book

DISCOVER THE SECRETS FOR BEING TRULY HAPPY WITH 101 MANTRAS THAT LEAD TO UNLIMITED HAPPINESS.

What is happiness?

What makes a person happy?

What makes a life truly joyful and meaningful?

There are as many conceivable responses to these questions as there are people in this world. While happiness is a very individual concept, it is most often seen as containing a measure of health, prosperity, social status, professional or creative satisfaction, a loving family and friends. The problem is that all of these are transitory phenomena.

Happiness, on the other hand, can be unlimited, unbound by conditions. Such a state comes from a deep understanding of, and focus on, our fundamental goal. It is a path that sages have led us down for centuries.

Through 101 short, workable capsules, The Path to Ananda: A Mystic's Guide to Unlimited Happiness offers readers that knowledge again. This is a mystic's guide for those who like following practical, easy-to-follow advice, knowledge that makes a difference, and wisdom that's practical.

Swami Avdheshanand Giri distils years of research, experiments with spirituality, enlightenment and invaluable advice into a regimen that can be applied to daily life by every reader. Grounded in ancient wisdom and Hindu philosophy, this essential guide steers readers towards the path to unbridled happiness-Ananda-and a rich and meaningful life.
