About the Book:
In
today's competitive world, most of the young and the elderly are restless due
to unreasonable expectations of their parents, children, partners, relatives,
friends, colleagues, leaders and subordinates. We are afraid of failures,
impatient and eager to quickly move up in our career, crave recognition, and
money and have better standards of living. In the process of these rampant
challenges and desires, most of us are missing the joy of life.
This
book takes the readers on how to lead a comfortable life despite existing
discrepancies and unpredicted behaviour of the people in the society in the
form of Dharma (good and bad), Artha (livelihoods and career), Kama (desires
and happiness) and Moksha (satisfaction and fulfilment) with one's principles
and values. It is an attempt to elaborate on the
cross-cultural beliefs, spiritual and commercial perceptions, relevance of
happiness and liveliness with an amalgamation of good health, being in harmony
with nature, playing adjustment and compromise.
It is intended for the middle-class Indians in
general and specifically to the youth and middle-aged on their career building
and balanced approach towards handling the complex issues at various stages of
life and to be celebrative. The
author comes from a middle-class farming family in a remote village in India.
He is an agricultural graduate and has undergone long term training programmes
at Oxford University, London, UK and Hebei Academy of Sciences, China. He has
40 years of rich experience in the public and private sectors of India and
