Most people believe that it is almost impossible to find great saints these
days. With changing times, their existence has obliterated ? Should one look
for them in pilgrim places or Himalayas ? How to identify them ? What are
the characteristics of a saintly figure ?
In this book, Shri Yogeshwarji has tried to answer those questions. Well,
some of the incidents narrated in the book highlights so called great
saints, but many incidents depicts not-so-famous people. They live saintly
life, or at least have many of the characteristics of saint. Their
day-to-day life may not be identical to those who dwell in solitary places,
but their detachment, their sense of service to humanity is worth mention.
The book illustrates noteworthy incidents about magnanimous saints like
Siddha Baba Sundarnathji, Bachchidas Maharaj, Santram Maharaj of Nadiad,
Baba Nimkaroli of Kaichii. It also narrates Bahadursingh of Mussoorrie,
Ramkali of Vrindavan, Radha of Mumbai. The point to note is that in ordinary
looking characters lies extraordinary virtues. The author has made a very
good attempt to highlight those qualities and have tried to give a message
that one can also develop those qualities and live a saintly life in midst
of worldly routine.
Irrespective of on whose life they are based or from which place they hail
from, all the characters have great message for the readers : to motivate
and encourage ordinary people to live a meaningful, fulfilling and spiritual
life. The book will sure inspire
spiritual aspirant as well as ordinary readers on how to make their lives
sublime and on how to be a better human being.
