A Zen-Master-like puzzle sums up the journey of the book: âThere is a cabinet with wealth in it. The owner happened to lock the cabinet, but left the key within the cabinet in the process. Now how do you open the cabinet without breaking it?â The answer to this is totally illogical if taken literally, but is completely true when seen as an analogy of life. The answer is â âKeep an open cabinet in front of the closed one. The closed cabinet will automatically open up.â This is a story of one such closed cabinet that comes in contact with âThe One Aboveâ, who is open and free. In the presence of a true Master, even a locked cabinet whose key has been locked within, can open up and reveal the wealth of happiness within. Various truths with increasing clarity dawn on the person during the journey. The journey begins with seeking solutions to daily problems, but progresses to not seeking solutions to outside problems but transforming oneself. The journey of self analysis goes deeper under the subtle but deep guidance of the The One Above (TAO). The guidance and teachings of TAO are put to daily test and great insights emerge through these experiences. Gradually the protagonist learns through these experiences that nothing outside needs to change for him to become or remain happy, thus yielding the way to permanent happiness.
