Perhaps no other subject has haunted the human mind, right from the hoary past, with such unerring consistency like the one regarding life and death. Is man mortal or immortal? What is reincarnation? What happens when a man dies? Every man is forced to ask these questions at some juncture of his life. This booklet provides brief but clear answers to these fundamental questions.
Let each one of us pray day and night for the downtrodden millions, who are held fast by poverty, priestcraft, and tyranny. Pray day and night for them. I care more to preach religion to them than to the high and the rich. I am no metaphysician, no philosopher, nay, no saint. But I am poor and I love the poor.
-Swami Vivekananda
