This book does not offer all the answers to leading a happy life but it comes pretty close. It covers topics ranging from emotional security, dealing with crisis, managing stress and spirituality amongst others. Lucidly the author picks up various problems that once face in the modern world, how to deal with unexpected occurrences, personal and family problems and most importantly, how to learn to let the past go.

This book teaches one to the strong, from the inside, to look life in the face and be brave despite the fear and anxiety. Interspersed with illuminating examples, verse and anecdotes, Windmills of the Mind draws on the enlightened philosophies of Aurobindo and the Mother, the Bhagvad Gita and the Mahabharata
