Book Profile: GUIDE TO INNER WELLNESS by Atul Sehgal

A new-age retelling of Shanti Karanam mantras from the Vedas.

 

ABOUT THE BOOK

Technology has undeniably brought us much respite, comfort and convenience. It is almost unfathomable to imagine a world devoid of technology. From the tiny paper clip to massive nuclear reactors, the influence of science and technology is all-pervasive.

 

But as we seek easier and faster ways of ‘getting our work done’ and even faster means of accessing information, are we missing something? Have we been able to understand the true purpose of our lives, and where our ultimate happiness lies? Although we are conquering new heights, scaling new horizons, why does the path to inner wellness and contentment elude us?

 

Guide to Inner Wellness addresses these questions by drawing upon the Shanti Karanam mantras from the Vedas to guide the reader on the way to attaining inner peace and harmony. Taking the strands of that Vedic knowledge, this book analyses the reasons behind high levels of stress today and suggests appropriate measures for its alleviation.
