Modern psychology is fast discovering the truth explained in our scriptures that happiness and misery depend not upon one's material possessions but on the way one's mind responds to life's challenges. This book explains how the mind can be made our friend.
Nature grinds all of us. Keep count of the ounce of pleasure you get. In the long run, nature did her work through you, and when you die your body will make other plants grow. Yet we think all the time that we are getting pleasure ourselves. Thus the wheel goes round.
-Swami Vivekananda
