Advaita Vedanta is not a mere intellectual system or just a philosophy but a fact of experience. Advaita, with its message of oneness of Existence, may truly be called the real basis of brotherhood of man. The present book provides an outline of various schools of Advaita in a plain and lucid manner.
Pray all the time, read all the scriptures in the world, and worship all the gods there are ...[but] unless you realize the Self (atman), there is no freedom.
-Swami Vivekananda
