Do you find comfort from the guidance of the spiritually wise, or have you set spiritual goals to gain awareness of what the Ancient Asian wisdom traditions have to say?

In this book, you will find 1361 citations and quotations from nine different spiritual scriptures in an assorted order, some containing multiple teachings in themselves, and if you are a spiritually conscious, lover of wisdom or otherwise a thoughtful person, you will find long companionship from this book.
