In its precise and beautiful language, and in that of the other writings of the Sage, which are included in this volume, is presented his brilliant synthesis of all that is best in the Upanishads--the reality of Spirit.

The image of the supreme Self, stained by the dust of imaginings, dwelling inwardly, endless, evil, comes forth pure, by the stirring power of enlightenment, as the scent of sandalwood comes clear. . . And thus clearly, in lucidity and grace, comes forth Śankarâchârya's instruction to all who have sensed the possibility of a better world, and will have it so. With the stirring power of enlightenment, the cleansing power of truth, he removes the veils from before the eyes of those who will follow him. A textbook of spirituality is perhaps an impossibility, but this book makes a very close approach to it.
