As suggested by the title, the book deals with the subject of Truth from the vantage point of Vedanta. The author, well known for his flair for expounding the eternal truths in terms of the scientific and rational thought patterns of the present day, successfully makes the readers apprise how in the light of those eternal truths human life and society can be elevated to a higher level of culture, harmony, and fulfilment
Nature grinds all of us. Keep count of the ounce of pleasure you get. In the long run, nature did her work through you, and when you die your body will make other plants grow. Yet we think all the time that we are getting pleasure ourselves. Thus the wheel goes round.
-Swami Vivekananda
