This book consists of short essays dealing with various problems which mankind faces in daily life, within organizations, in society and politics, in aspiration towards the spiritual life. The origin of those problems is identified in every case as lying not outside but within human beings themselves, in their 'unrealistic' and self-centred perception of people, things and events. Thus the solution of these problems also lies within each one of us.
