Some are born great. Some have greatness thrust upon them. This book is for those who want to achieve it.
We are all programmed to achieve greatness. We just have to run the programme accurately. Unveil Your Greatness: The Teachings of Acharya Mahapragya, a selection of the Jaina master's sayings, helps us to do so. From that which is petty to that which is abstract, Acharya Mahapragya, the tenth head of the Svetambar Terapanth order of Jainism, approached all problems with a rare practicality. He said that truth was multidimensional, and this formed the crux of Anekanta, the concept of one and many, or pluralism, that he believed in. Alongside is a form of meditation, Preksha Dhyan, that helps make the goal of self-actualization more attainable.Compiled by Sudhamahi Regunathan, this handbook offers readers tried and tested wisdom that can help bring value to their lives.
