We all have some understanding of life. This is the philosophy that guides our actions, thoughts, feelings emotions and behaviour patterns. Swami Tejomayananda has spoken on a variety of subject at different times in various forums. The presentation of his thoughts each time has a unique flavor and therefore will be of great interest to the readers.
Established in the Oneness, his talks carry the convictions by which he lives, thinks, acts, interacts and applies himself to every task and situation. The talks in this book give us insights on love, bhakti, karma, God realization, mastering the mind, protection of the environment and various other topics.
