About This Book

A personal spiritual handbook urging cultivation and outward expression of inner goodness through deliberate habits and attitudes. The author offers reflections and practical counsel on cultivating radiancies — from nature's influence and the personal aura to joy, will, cheerfulness, toleration, moral courage, service, humor, and acceptance of death — arguing that positive action and character are more important than mere abstention from wrong. Written as personal meditations, exhortations, and suggested attitudes, it blends prayerful aspiration with everyday guidance aimed at making sympathy, unselfishness, and steady usefulness habitual in daily life.
