In this special selection from the Resurgence bookshop, we invite you to explore the words of lifelong campaigner and former Jain monk Satish Kumar: stories of pilgrimage, peace and ecological wisdom that inform the conversations we will be celebrating at our 60th anniversary event this September, One with the Earth.

Spiritual Compass
by Satish Kumar
In our modern, materialistic world it is easy to separate spirituality from everyday life. But Satish emphasises that spirituality is not just for saints, nor is it confined to religious services or holy books. It must be a part of our ordinary, everyday existence: it needs to be implicitly present in business, politics, farming, cooking — and in our relationships.
