"The spirit of inquiry knocks at the door of our consciousness many times. But we conveniently brush it aside. And when we do nurture it, only a few of us are fortunate enough to come across a person who can clarify our doubts or quench our spiritual thirst. However, if a book is made available, which narrates some of the difficulties the seeker faces during his/her search of oneself, it might be of great help. And this book is an attempt in this direction. Explaining how aspiration (subheccha) for a life gets germinated and what should be the attitude of the seeker of Truth, it discusses at length the different methods of mind control, the intricacies of Asanas, Pranayama, Dharana, Dhyana and Bhakti. The experiences and discoveries of the seeker have also been incorporated."
