The Best of Speaking Tree Volume-4

‘The Best of Speaking Tree’ presents a selection of articles from the column, ‘The Speaking Tree’, that appears daily on the edit page of The Times of India. Ever since the column began in 1995, its open, non-denominational approach to spirituality has been widely read and appreciated. Indeed, for many TOI readers, the Speaking Tree has grown to become a place of retreat and contemplation amidst the death, deceit and destruction that populates the rest of the newspaper. Articles in this column are essentially timeless, and can be read anytime, anywhere, since they talk of issues and ideas that evoke our higher consciousness and so are eternal.
