Comparative Religion as a distinct subject of study has evoked much interest in recent times. In the three lectures that comprise this book, the author has tried to answer the following three questions: What exactly does Comparative Religion discuss and aim at? What is its method? What are its data? He believes that religions, in spite of their differences, have an underlying unity.
The important thing is how much less you think of the body, of yourself as matter -- as dead, dull, insentient matter; how much more you think of yourself as shining immortal being. The more you think of yourself as spirit, the more eager you will be to be absolutely free from matter, body and senses. This is the intense desire to be free.
