must look within ourselves tor the answers, but to begin, it is best to find an example to follow. Books and teachings may help us appreciate and comprehend different philosophies, but if we want the experience of our profound reality, there can be no substitute for the example of a person who is living in harmony with his noblest ideals, who is realizing in his everyday conduct the best in himself, and who is able to lead others to find their way.
For me, Gurudev Shree Chitrabhanu is such a person. I have studied him, his life, and his teaching for almost ten years and have found in his gentle loving approach to living the epitome of reverence, health, courage, and peace. This book is about his life, his transformation, his consciousness. Because he has inspired me and guided me to change my life so that it has become happier, calmer, and more meaningful in every way, I am glad to have this opportunity to encourage you to read his story and let it benefit you on your own journey.
