I rewrote the blurb a couple of times yesterday. Do you think it is attractive enough to make someone want to open the book and see what is in it, if they find it in a book store? Thanks for all answers in advance! If you have any comments or tips on improving it, they are welcome as well!
Title:
Nirvana: Absolute Freedom
Genre: non-fiction / new age/ spirituality
Back cover blurb:
Everyone loves freedom and fulfillment, but few seem to have it. Even those that seem to have it, are afraid of losing it and are unsure of what the future holds.
When you question and challenge traditionally held views, you discover that to realize true and lasting freedom, you don't need to be super rich, lucky or powerful; nor do you need to strive endlessly and compete with others; nor do you need to wait for an after-life in anticipation of some reward for good behavior.
In Nirvana, you learn about a much simpler but effective way to reconnect with your true Self and rediscover the forgotten treasure that lay buried deep within you. Once you learn to tap into this inner treasure, you begin to experience a state of freedom from thought, freedom from dependence, freedom from suffering; a state so deeply fulfilling that no objective experience can even come close. Thus commences our journey to absolute freedom, Nirvana.
Would this be a better first sentence "Everyone loves freedom and fulfillment, but why do only few seem to have it?"
