Ananda

Why do success and satisfaction tend to be empty experiences? Or rather, why does happiness seem to be so fleeting that just when you think you have it captured, it slips out of your fingers? 

Author Rup Rani in Ananda: Indian Philosophy of Art of Fulfillment does not only unearth the forgotten wisdom of India; she reveals the ancient insights, The Lost Secret of Happiness, that are timeless and shows us just why our ceaseless pursuit of happiness keeps us unfulfilled, directing us toward understanding that true joy is beyond simple pleasure. In direct ancient philosophy and modern reflections, this book will guide you as you journey to recover Ananda-the deep, unshakable fulfillment existing beyond outer achievement. 

By combining profound teachings from the Bhagavad Gita, the Upanishads, and the wisdom of Indian sages with thought-provoking storytelling, Ananda seeks to intrude upon conventional notions of success, ambition, or love. It probes:

✔ Why none of the material or emotional highs ever lead to lasting happiness 

✔ The secret of Nishkama Karma-acting unselfishly 

✔ How to detach oneself, not to lose concern 

✔ The balance in everyday life between effort and surrender 

This isn't a self-help book. Ananda is a remembrance. If you are prepared to break the fetters of illusion around happiness and regain true fulfillment, this is your guide. 

Are you ready to recollect that which was never really lost?
