Based on the work and teachings of 4 great spiritual beacons of humanity—Paul, Francis of Assisi, Augustine, and Mother Teresa—Ekhnath Easwaran analyzes a philosophy of life that is rooted in specific methods of meditation and prayer.

In a practical and comprehensible manner, he reveals to the reader the "keys" to peace of mind, the approach to the inner self, and the gradual transformation into a being of light and love.

Through the pages of this book, the sacred voices of mystics come alive once again, calling humanity to understand and reclaim its divine heritage.
