The sacred subject of the eternal, living spiritual culture of the Upanishads and their journey to the West deserves attention of a wider public. This book is a comprehensive treatment of the broad achievements of India's civilization and spiritual culture as it is revealed through the works of Western scholars.
This world is nothing. It is at best only a hideous caricature, a shadow of the Reality. We must go to the Reality. Renunciation will take us to It.
-Swami Vivekananda
