Great guide

This is a beautiful very useful and a great guiding book. However it is not an easy book. One cant expect the path to spiritual evolution to be easy though it is not even so tough that no one can go on it. It is very much doable. I didnt go through this book for enjoyment or fun but as a sincere student and it stood by my expectation completely. For me it became more effective as I was listening to it mindfully while meditating and that proved to be a key for me. The narration is invitive and nicely done. Yes1 I am going to go through it again.
