Many have said that the Hindu religion is the only one that teaches its followers to respect all religions, not just their own. This is something that is practiced throughout India, and is why this great spiritual book can appeal to anyone. Tagore takes the very best wisdom from the Upanishads, the Bhagavad Gita, Buddhism and even Christianity to reveal a powerful, common theme that can bring everyone together. The author was not only a great poet, but won the Nobel Prize for literature in 1913. Albert Schweitzer called him one of the greatest thinkers of mankind and this book does well to prove it. What can be found within these pages is what one would call the wisdom of the ages. It is a spiritual classic that has helped transform many readers. It is recommended for all who seek truth, spiritual growth and self-realization in their lives.

Written by Nobel Prize Laureate Rabindranath Tagore and available in paperback for the first time, "Sadhana is a profound, highly accessible introduction to India's ancient spiritual heritage.
Few figures in history have been as important as Rabindranath Tagore in bringing Indian philosophy and spiritual teachings to the West. Although he was known primarily as a poet, his work is deeply religious, imbued with his belief that God can be found through personal purity and service to others. "Sadhana (sometimes translated from the Sanskrit as "spiritual practice" or "spiritual discipline") is a beautifully written, concise distillation of the great resources of Indian philosophy. With the surge of interest in Indian spirituality, it will be welcomed with enthusiasm by readers everywhere.
Rabindranath Tagore wurde am 7. Mai 1861 in Kalkutta geboren und starb am 7. August 1941 ebendort. Er war ein bengalischer Dichter, Philosoph, Maler, Komponist und Musiker. 1913 erhielt er den Nobelpreis für Literatur und war damit der erste asiatische Nobelpreisträger.
