The Path of Life

"The Path of Life" by Leo Nikolayevich Tolstoy is a unique spiritual testament created by the author in the last months of his life, which he worked on intensely and with great enthusiasm. Reflecting on the "meaning and good" of... the human path — what it means to live "by conscience and reason", how to fight against temptations, sins, and superstitions, etc. — the author seeks to find a way for the spiritual unity of people with each other and with God. The author's thoughts are intertwined with parables, proverbs, sayings, quotes from great writers, and the teachings of ancient Indian and Chinese thinkers and philosophers. Tolstoy, addressing readers of various ages and interests, writes that this book contains "the most important thoughts of all" and they are arranged in a specially significant order.
