Customer Reviews

Lead to by Spirit....
This book has so much spiritual information that it can not be absorbed in one, two or many readings. When I was contacted by my spirit guides many years ago enlightening information was passed on to me, but I did not understand one very definate "word" which could have several meanings until I was guided to this book which explained exactly the meaning and to my knowledge does not exist in any other book I have read or researched. This is one of the reasons I hold this book in such high esteem. I would recommend that people wanting to understand information in it to first try ready "Autobiography of a Yogi" by Paramahansa Yogananda, who was taught by Sri Yuktswar.

Fantastic
This book is excellent. Sri Yukteswar's writing style is very easy to read (I think I prefer it to Yogananda's) and he manages to explain a great deal of truth in a short space. A clear account of the similarities between Hindu and Christian scriptures, this book will be useful for any spiritual seeker.

A spiritual Gem for any traveler on The Journey of Life
For a readied spiritual practitioner, reading this book may lead to a direct experience of divine love within. A sacred book indeed, although I'm not acquianted with the astrology information in one chapter, the word Holy is only proper. Reflecting the Truth in both some biblical scriptures as well as other wisdom sources, the sacredness of the world is reflected as a uniting force, a Source to be found by many methods and in many sources. This is a gem.
