Open Heart, Open Mind: Practical Lessons in Loving Your Life

by Chetanananda

"His insights and practical techniques are readily accessible even to those with no meditative experience. All that is necessary is a willingness to let go."--Yoga Journal. Our choice is whether to avoid life, or to reach more deeply within ourselves to discover the essential experience of Life Itself. The logic of the heart, the pursuit of happiness, and the knowledge and experience of what true love these essays take you into a profound state of spiritual understanding. Based on informal discussions, public talks, and retreats given by a meditation master, they guide you as you decide what kind of person you want to be and how you can arrive at a place of satisfaction and joy. Stop listening to the voice of the ego--desire, ambition, greed, selfishness--and instead open your hearts, realize your interrelatedness with the world, and surrender to the stillness that exists inside you.
