A unique mythological ‘self-help’ book that is a companion to Hope
Who made contentment a bad word?
Hunger, commonly marketed as ambition and aspiration,fuels growth without accountability, resilience or kindness.
This is the Bakasura trap. This is where our world is.
Contentment, commonly misunderstood as complacency or compromise, fuels growth with accountability, resilience and kindness. That is the Bhima escape. That is where our world can be.
This book re-discovers this path, first revealed by Hanuman in the Mahabharata. Insightful and inspiring, Escape the Bakasura Trap is another classic from one of our great mythologists and thinkers.
