Indian Wisdom 365 Days celebrates those who live in harmony with the forces of earth and sky, who aspire to nirvana - the highest level of heart-, body- and mind-consciousness. This beautiful daybook by Danielle and Olivier Follmi presents the wise words of a great master, philosopher or poet for every day of the year, accompanied by Olivier's sensitive and moving photographs of Indian people and places. The effect is transformative, awakening our senses and preparing our souls to receive these simple yet profound teachings. Contemporary specialists on Indian culture have also contributed to Indian Wisdom 365 Days, which draws on such ancient yet timeless sources as poems by Rabindranath Tagore and Krishnamurti; the longest epic in world literature, the Mahabarata; and the most significant of the Hindu sacred writings, the Veda. A treasure in both content and form, this insprational book artfully conveys the essence of India.

FAVOURITE BOOK EVER!,
By
This review is from: Indian Wisdom (Hardcover)
Must clarify- this book is amazing! It is a gorgeous book filled with lovely photographs and a lovely montage of spiritual wisdom, I can't believe it was rated "1 star" by someone. This book is a piece of art, as someone who has spent 3 years in Sri Lanka, 21 in Africa and studied Indian Classical Dance and the arts for 5 years, this book is a piece of work, a MUST have.

This review is from: Indian Wisdom (Hardcover)
This work is an embarrassment! India has a rich heritage and culture emenating powerful and meaningful pearls of wisdom. This book does an appalling job of trying to capture this timeless wisdom.
