Learning from Loss: Lessons from Our Gurus

Those of us who have not had to face death, hardship and tragedy in our lives are indeed fortunate. We have all experienced hard times. We have all had to struggle through pain and grief. How did India’s great spiritual teachers talk about these moments? What stories did they tell their followers to console them? In this beautiful book, Renuka Narayanan selects some of India’s most compelling stories that deal with the subject, from the Jataka Tales and Sri Ramakrishna’s parables to the retelling of the lives of our saints like Surdas and Tukaram. Wise and moving, Learning from Loss will be your trusted companion through the ups and downs of your life.
