‘Vishadathil ninnu Vivekathilekku’ means
‘the journey from depression to autonomy.’
The very goal of human life is to do creative service to oneself and to
the world. The fast and advanced technology has gone very far deteriorating
human relationship. Eye contact is missing now days in all fields and finger
tips are working in this era. Even in a home it is surprising to see that texts
are being sent to inform dinner is ready like that. Return text will come soon
‘shall come after half an hour or don’t wait for me’ like that. What’s
happening? Family members are missing the beautiful conversation of the day
around the dining table. Everywhere business touch and business sessions only,
there is 24 hours in a day but due to the lackadaisical 24/7 working pattern,
no time to spare with the dear ones in home. This results in anxiety and
depression in individuals. This phenomenon is becoming common today. The sad
thing is that it is not being identified in time because of lack of
relationship at home or in office.
Authors, Smt. Suma Pillai and Sri. Rajendran Pillai, the couple have
made a detailed study and laid out clearly the chart of the journey from the
dark depths of depression and anxiety to the light of awareness, wisdom and
peace. Human relationship is so important to lead a healthy and happy life to

better with stressful situations. Once depression
is identified then let their response to relationship, work stress, financial
matters etc. to be taken with special care and train them to have more adaptive
response to the hurdles to manage. The practice of selfishness and
acquisitiveness are the primary factors that derange the mind. This book is a
real guide to make one aware that freedom from selfishness and acquisitiveness

‘action phase’ to cure self and cure others. While going through the pages it
visualizes the words of the great philosopher, George Bernard Shaw that
“Life is no brief candle for me. It is a sort
of splendid torch which I have got hold of for the moment, and I want to make
it burn as brightly as possible before handing it on to future generations.
