Learning to Love

by Eknath Easwaran

Overview

How can we build loving, lasting relationships? Not by listening to the media, Easwaran writes, but by learning to love. It’s a skill, one that we all need urgently to acquire - both for our personal happiness and for the welfare of the world. With quiet humor and practical wisdom, this much-respected spiritual author offers insights and advice for readers of all ages and backgrounds. True romance lies not in roses and candlelight, but in developing the patience, selflessness, and strength we need for rich relationships and for making a wiser, more meaningful contribution to life.


This short ebook is compiled from excerpts from a number of books by Eknath Easwaran.

Editorial Reviews

learning to love is easier said than done. However, Easwaran's down to earth, practical approach to the idea is enjoyable to read on many levels. He uses every day examples to drive home the most lofty spiritual goal: love is the answer. Then he tells you how to move in that direction. My church is struggling right now to get through a divisive issue. I will be recommending it as a small group book discussion. Lots of gems to pick through!
