Narayana Guru was a mystic poet and social visionary of the early 20th century, whose seminal poem, written in his native Malayalam language was Atmopadesa Satakam, One Hundred Verses of Self Instruction. This current book takes that poem as a basis, along with its two masterful commentaries by Narayana Guru’s immediate successors, and uses them to shed light and offer guidance on many day-to-day conundrums and universal life challenges. Almost as if by magic, there emerges a rare combination of profundity and playfulness that has the potential to elevate our spirit in joyfulness and orient our behavior and pursuit of a rich and meaningful life.
