The present volume is a collection of Swami Satprakashananda's talks on different aspects of Vedanta. His exposition of the subtle nuances of Vedanta is charming and reader-friendly. In an almost conversational tone he discusses the why and wherefore of morality, the role of the spiritual teacher, the aura of meditation, the dichotomy of good and evil, the enigma of Maya, the inter-relation between reason, volition, and emotion, the use of symbols, the significance of spiritual visions, the power of mantras, and also explores the question of what happens after death.
By the Vedas no books are meant. They mean the accumulated treasury of spiritual laws discovered by different persons in different times. Just as the law of gravitation existed before its discovery, and would exist if all humanity forgot it, so is it with the laws that govern the spiritual world
