Our personal example -- in every aspect of our lives -- is a very powerful instrument of change, more powerful than many of us realize. Renewal is a little book of hope, to lift our spirits and give us courage when we're facing problems, and to offer gentle, sometimes surprising answers to the question But what can I do? In these short readings on themes such as loving relationships, raising children, living simply, and aging wisely, Easwaran presents fresh insights to reveal our fundamental interconnectedness, our unity with all life. This beautifully produced collection includes tales from India, inspiration from Gandhi and the world's saints, engaging anecdotes, and practical suggestions, all of which are accessible to readers of any faith, philosophy, or lifestyle. Together, they demonstrate that small daily efforts to improve our own lives and the lives of those around us can add up to a powerful force for renewal -- for ourselves and for our world.

Eknath Easwaran (1910-1999) is respected around the world as an authentic guide to universal wisdom. Author of the best-selling Classics of Indian Spirituality series, Easwaran had both a deep intuitive knowledge of his own Hindu legacy and a love of English literature. He was chairman of the English department at a major Indian university when he came to the United States on a Fulbright fellowship in 1959. His twenty-seven books on meditation and the classics of world mysticism have been translated into twenty-six languages. Through the Blue Mountain Centre of Meditation and its publishing arm, Nilgiri Press, Easwaran continues to reach an ever-growing audience around the world through publications and retreats.
