Blending a mastery of Vaidika scripture with practical insights gained from decades of guiding spiritual seekers, Swami Swaroopananda shares examples of men and women throughout history who became great not in spite of adversity, but through it.
Written as part of the Chinmaya Mission publications, Storm to Perform by Swami Swaroopananda is an abridged guide to dealing with situations if not life itself. Instead of shallow anecdotes and religious supremacy, the book contains scientific and cognitive frameworks and sermonizes dispassionately, e.g., it propagates that it is important for young people to experience both success and failure as they grow up, so that they can gain a wider vocabulary of life.. Additionally, the concept of Sankalpa and Vikalpa and conflict resolution were very insightful and refreshing to read. I recommend not only reading this book but also additional books by the Chinmaya Mission that are also on my 'Want to Read' list!
