The intelligent, educated youth in India are confused about the purpose of life, and what to do and how to progress well in life. They ask various questions, but do not get convincing answers. A few think of committing suicide and some others of drugs.
India has a great culture and heritage cultivated and maintained through thousands of years by ancient sages of this land, but not known by many of the recent generations.
This book contains more than a hundred questions put forward by well educated young men and women and their responses reflect their eagerness to gain wisdom and happiness. It is more a kind of pleasant surprise to know that among the readers the parents are happier than the youth.
This book would lead the readers on to live a better and happier life and to be useful to society and the nation.
