This book covers the entire range of Vedantic thoughts and findings over three topics viz.

(i) What is life?

(ii) Mental Harmony: the True Spiritual Attainment; and

(iii) Secret of Self-Realization

It also gives a full description of the practical saadhana, which the seeker has to undertake and pursue for getting a direct realization of what he seeks. Even though it is faith and acceptance that are normally considered paramount in religion, the role of reason and knowledge can in no way be denied even in a fruitful religious life.

The book begins with enquiry into the common beliefs and practices. Then using simple but irrefutable logic, in a step-by-step approach, it is clearly shown that what we call life or living is in fact a revelation of our own inner SELF. This Self is indeed not different from what the religionists call "God", the philosophers call "Ultimate Reality", and the spiritualists call "Spirit" or "Consciousness". The great secret behind samaadhi "the direct experience of the Self within" is explained. For a genuine seeker, this is the divine key to Ultimate Freedom, Immortality and Bliss. It is to such seekers that this book is dedicated..

The book exposes what is Spiritual harmony consists of in reality and how to attain it in our daily lives, and where the means and finale of all spiritual practices lies. Finally, the great secret of Samadhi- the direct experience of the Self within is explained. This book is dedicated to genuine seekers for whom this will be a divine key to Ultimate freedom, immortality and bliss.

Extracts from the Book:

Whenever you feel like seeking protection in any walk of life, turn to the Supreme Consciousness, which fills your body. Whenever you feel tempted to enquire into the Ultimate Reality, turn your attention to nowhere else but within. Similarly, identify constantly your being and existence not with the perishable body, the mass of flesh, but the Imperishable Self within…

So, dear Souls, this is the truth about the mind. When the mind suffers from ‘disharmony’ with respect to anything, it is in bondage. When it is established in ‘harmony’ whatever be the surroundings, then it is liberated. If the thought of the Soul and the saadhana pursued on the basis of that thought help you towards achieving harmony of the mind, well and good. The entire talk of the Soul, God etc. is really with a view to bring about the mind’s harmony. It is to make the mind work for salvation, which means abiding harmony….

The spiritual realm within your personality is not one of mysticism or miracles. Instead, it is one of sentience. Scientific thinking cannot afford to neglect this supra-scientific sphere, the basis and support of your very life. Take up, therefore, this vital enquiry, namely ‘what is life’. Pursue it wholeheartedly until you know for certain what you are. Thus establish your birthright. Justify your human-hood, the status that you have as a rational and knowing creature. Discover the one ultimate discoverer of all and thereby fulfill your life’s mission of finding and radiating peace, freedom and immortality…
