Happiness beyond Mind

Book excerpt: Do you find happiness eluding you, despite your successes? Is contentment missing in your life? Only the ancient, time-tested Spiritual Science of India has answers to why we find our lives meaningless and how to discover meaning in life. It is relevant any day including the current time because it clearly articulates the unflinching higher goal that we all hope to achieve but don’t know what it is. When we connect with the higher goal, everything else we do has a purpose and meaning. Yet, the wisdom of the Gita and Upanishads is either confusing or difficult to apply in our personal circumstances. Partly because we have lost the ability to understand the subtle aspect of the deep knowledge and because we also misconstrue the scriptures as ‘religious’ and ‘not scientific’. To be truly scientific is to test out the hypothesis before discarding it as irrelevant. The book is easy to read based on the author's personal transformation journey while he tested out the hypothesis with scientific rigor. The genesis of the book was to create a ready reckoner of a happiness framework that could be applied to modern life, based on the time-tested principles from Spiritual Science. The book also shares how one can apply irrefutable spiritual concepts in the form of practical daily exercises – sadhana, that not only improve one’s physical and mental health but also helps to lead a harmonious, happy and contented life.
