If you've ever wondered if there is something more to life, this book is for you. If you've found yourself in a situation where you don't know what to do or what you even believe anymore, this book is for you. If you've ever woken up one day and realised that you've been living somebody else's life, this book is for you. The author has wrestled with questions such as What is my purpose in life? or, Is there something more to life than the everyday grind? These very real existential questions have lead him to look for answers in the most unlikely places for a Christian-raised atheist. He turned to the Hindu Advaita philosophy, Buddhism, Zen, philosophy and even became a disciple of gurus. This ardent search revealed to him the essential teachings that were common amongst the world's greatest spiritual traditions. But it also highlighted a lot of the clutter, noise and misconceptions present in each of them. This book came as a result of his wish to distil the wisdom that enlightens one in the fewest and simplest words possible. It is truly a handbook for the eager.
