The book is seen as a practical guide to attaining success. Unlike other self help books that enumerate the hard work that should precede success, this book exhorts the readers to delve into their own true nature and finding the fount of success from within themselves. Unless we are one with the nature that made us, as it made the trees and mountains, we cannot achieve anything. Some of the seven laws are being aware of your potentiality and being non-judgemental, law of least resistance, detachment and dharma. Following the mantras set down by chopra lead the prac-titioners to success. The best part is that the success will not come from struggling and toiling, but by being at peace with oneself.
