Phillip Jones developed his Four Stages of Life Model while helping people of all ages successfully navigate the rite of passage from birth to death. Drawing from ancient Vedic culture and based on India's venerable Varnasrama system, this model can help anyone balance the conflicting tasks of each stage of life. Jones reveals specific ways to live a spiritual and psychologically sound life in a materialistic culture, and explains, with sensitivity and insight, how to attain peace during life's final transition.
