Here are three-hundred and sixty-six meditations-one for each day of the year-each from the heart of a spiritually oriented philosopher from Plato to Emerson to Sri Aurobindo to a host of theosophical students and scholars. Inside of this miniature Quest book is a complete philosophy for living; quiet, short, engaging thoughts, each alive with the spirit of being. In truth this is not a book to be studied. It is a book to be carried in the pocket or purse. It is a book to be treasured.
