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.
When we have become free, we need not go mad and throw up society and rush off to die in the forest or the cave; we shall remain where we were but we shall understand the whole thing. The same phenomena will remain but with a new meaning.
-Swami Vivekananda
