Beginning's End
(Introduction and Chapter 1)Preface to the reprint edition
Originally this book was written when I was living in the United States and had met many people with a strong spiritual thirst but who were completely engulfed in the competitive world of ambition and material excellence. I had realized that many of these people preferred an esoteric and less demanding path than that which I had been committed to.
This book was written mainly to highlight the truth that if you wish to nourish the heart and nurture the light within, you need to make structural adjustments to your way of life as well as the all-consuming material drive. This book is a challenge to our modern lifestyle that is out of balance.
Now it is being reprinted as the gap widens between the sustainable inner happiness and ever-increasing outer frenzy.
