"Patience
is the ornament of the brave," Eknath Easwaran's wise grandmother used
to say. Patience is also the mark of love, says Easwaran - with our
children, our parents, our partners, our colleagues, and our
communities.

Easwaran is one of the twentieth century's great
spiritual teachers and an authentic guide to timeless wisdom. In this
little book, Easwaran lifts our spirits and gives us courage, with
insights and advice, stories, and inspiration from the world's saints
and sages.

Just keep trying, Easwaran says, and you'll find
there's no end to your patience - no end to the wisdom, love, and
compassion in your heart.
