Profound in its Truth

A profound guide to one’s journey on the path to truth. I liked the simplicity and clarity of the guidance, making a deep and profound topic easy to understand, Deepak provides a pragmatic set of steps and actions to achieve life’s most sought after goal. I feel I need to read the book again, more slowly….and perhaps again.
