Goswami Tulsidas, the author of the Ramcharitmanas, has written a work so profound that every time I read it, I’m amazed. From a literary standpoint, it uses the finest poetic tools; from a scriptural view, it echoes Upanishadic mantras; and from a bhakti perspective, it’s an endless ocean of devotion.

The perspective of self-improvement empowers us to see grace in both good and bad situations.

Living at ease is the biggest hindrance to progress. It prevents you from pushing your boundaries, developing new perspectives, and creating new skills.
