The author, a Sanskrit scholar from South Africa, has selected 108 gems from the Upanishadic mine and strung them into a fascinating array. The selections have been arranged under suitable headings in an attempt to systematize the thought of the Upanishads.
Live for an ideal, and that one ideal alone. Let it be so great, so strong, that there may be nothing else left in the mind; no place for anything else, no time for anything else.
-Swami Vivekananda
