I have read through this pioneering work of research by the editors and the contributions of various researchers, bringing together views of four distinct dimensions of spirituality - putting forward the God Centric Spirituality, Nature Centric Spirituality, Inner-Self Centric Spirituality and Cosmic View of Spirituality. Thereafter, the book continues to unfold another pioneering concept called "HOPE" - Higher Order Purpose of Existence. It is a very simple and heart-touching articulation, making Corporate Spiritual Responsibility one of the easily acceptable and adaptable paradigms of CSR for every kind of enterprise, small, big, and mega-corporations.
