Any Guru Will Do : A Modern Man’s Search for Meaning [EPUB ebook] 
A Modern Man’s Search for Meaning

A humorous look at a usually lofty and intimidating topic?he meaning of life?his book documents one man’s uphill journey to enlightenment. Explaining the attractions (and pitfalls) of a pick-and-choose approach, the discussion covers Eastern and Western beliefs, all the while elucidating their practices through personal anecdotes. An attack of existentialism, a dogged attempt to discover God through poetry, a doomed ’holiday’ at a health farm, and time spent at a ritual Egyptian dance workshop are some of the instructive stories offered, complete with such odd characters as a saffron-turbaned Dadaji, the poet Les Murray, and a Catholic priest who stops taking the author’s calls.
