Yoga Vasishta is one of the greatest knowledge on earth. This is the conversation between Sage Vasishta and Rama. At about 16 years of age, Rama as a Prince goes around his Country only to find people's distress. Seeing people's sufferings, he gets dejected and after he returns to the palace, he is very depressed and refuses to even take food. He starts thinking why to live in the first place and what is the purpose of living when anyway people are going to die. At that point, he is summoned by Sage Vasishta and seeing his condition, the Sage asks the reason for his depressed state and then starts the beautiful conversation between them.
The book recommended by Sri Sri Ravi Shankar is "The Supreme Yoga - Yoga Vasishta" by Swami Venkatesananda. I have read this once. This is a wonderful book.
