By A Staff Reporter,Kathmandu, Aug. 2: Motivational author and journalist Ghanashyam Khadka has come up with a book on joyful living titled 'Ananda Samhita'. Of late, the book has been a content of complimentary buzz among motivational speakers and readers.
Published by Alchemy Publications, the book offers an insightful exploration of causes of human suffering and ways to eliminate them to bring lasting happiness. Khadka has meticulously shed light on the plight of human suffering which is the product of mankind's efforts to find happiness.
“Although everyone searches for happiness throughout life, most people find the opposite result leading to the general belief that suffering is the truth of life,” Alchemy Publications has written in its blurb. “Illuminated by the truth that happiness is attainable in anyone's life under any circumstances when sought with the right methods, this book is a valuable guide for all those seeking happiness.”
Each chapter of the book presents a simple yet profound exploration of achieving happiness, ending with practical methods for its application. "This thoughtful approach gives readers the unique opportunity to become their own therapists," adds the blurb.
In addition to its practical advice, ‘Aananda Samhita’ delves into the philosophical underpinnings of joy, exploring the intersection of spirituality, psychology and daily living. Khadka draws on his extensive background in spiritualism and philosophy to offer readers a holistic understanding of joy that goes beyond mere surface-level happiness.
"Whether you are seeking to overcome personal challenges, enhance your mental well-being or simply find more meaning in your daily routine, this book offers valuable tools and inspiration", asserts the publisher.
The book is structured to guide readers through a transformative journey, starting with understanding the nature of joy and progressing through actionable steps to cultivate it in their everyday lives. Also, a trainer of Mindfulness Meditation, Khadka's engaging writing style and profound insights make complex concepts accessible, ensuring that readers can apply the wisdom of the book to their own experiences.
"Aananda Samhita is not just a guidebook but a companion for those on a quest for a more fulfilling life," Khadka asserted. By combining personal anecdotes, scientific research and philosophical discourse, Khadka has created a work that resonates on multiple levels.
The 232-page book has chapters with simple and prolific language.
A resident of Dadhikot, Bhaktapur, Khadka had five books to his credit before this, including Nirvana, Putaliko Ghar, Nyayako Awasan and Durbarko Dukhant. Among them, Nirvana was the popular motivational novel which was nominated for Madan Puraskar some years back.
