Grihastha Mein Kaise Rahen? is a spiritual guide by Swami Ramsukhdas Ji Maharaj that addresses the challenges of leading a householder (grihastha) life in modern times, while preserving spiritual values. The core theme of the book is how one can live in the world—fulfilling familial, societal, and material responsibilities—yet remain unattached (anāsakt) and spiritually centered.
Swami Ramsukhdas uses a clear, didactic style, drawing from Hindu dharma and traditional teaching. The book offers both principles (like the philosophy of detachment, character building, virtues) and practical advice—how to resolve everyday tensions and maintain harmony in family life. It acknowledges that many people are caught in stress, unrest, and confusion in domestic life, and it aims to give them tools to lead more peaceful, balanced lives. pustak.org+2gitapress.org+2
