This is a book about how spiritual development does not require leaving an ordinary life, that it isinstead about living an ordinary life in a particular way that is both easy and practical for everyone.Dr Badrinarayan Shankar Pawar (PhD, Oklahoma State University) writes about witnessing thepractical spirituality of Baai, his mother. The book looks at pain, happiness, relationships andsuffering through the lens of someone who, without following any spiritual master, had imbibedthe teachings of ancient holy scriptures in her ordinary life, but with extraordinary outcomes. Hecorrelates different aspects of Baai’s life—including her demise, when Baai was experiencing serenityand peace despite her body being riddled with ailments—with specific verses from the BhagavadGita and Dnyaaneswhari as well as scientific literature on spirituality. Her last moments resembled the descriptions of liberation or self-realization in the scriptures.This book is for anyone with an urge for spiritual development while still living a life filled withduties, dilemmas, challenges, adversities and changes.
