Steps to Happiness

A doctor, outwardly successful and compassionate, Taranatha feels 'sucked dry' - and struggling with the twin demons of depression and alcoholism. His search for a way out involves him in a suicide attempt before his will to live reasserts itself. His path to recovery takes him through AA and anti-depressants, but leaves him with a sense of worthlessness and lack of direction. Fumbling in the dark, a chance encounter with Buddhism illuminates the way and guides his steps on a journey on which he meets himself and starts to find happiness.
