Religion:
Its Methods and Purpose
(21 pages, Paper $.75)
From inside: You must remember the
one theme that runs through all the Vedas--"Just
as by the knowledge of one lump of clay we know all
the clay that is in the universe, so what is that, knowing
which we know everything else?"--This, expressed
more or less clearly, is the theme of all human knowledge.
It is the finding of a Unity towards which we are all
going. |

The
Nature of the Soul and Its Goal
(21 pages, Paper $.75)
From inside: This bright body, fine
body, however fine it might be, was a body after all;
and all bodies must be made up of materials, either
gross or fine. Whatever had form or shape must be limited,
and could not be eternal. Change is inherent in every
form. How coudl that which is changeful be eternal?
So behind this bright body, as it were, they found something
which was the soul. It was called the Atman, the Self. |

Christ
the Messenger
(23 pages, Paper $.75)
From inside: Now what you see in the
life of Christ is the life of all the past. The life
of every person is, in a manner, the life of the past.
It comes to him through heredity, through surroundings,
through education, through his own reincarnation,--the
past of the race. In a way, the past of the earth, the
past of the whole world in there, upon every soul. What
are we, in the present, but a result, an effect, in
the hands of the infinite past? |

Sleep
and Samadhi
Sister Devamata
(13 pages, Paper $.75)
From inside: Sleep is not merely a
physiological fact. It is something more than a simple
state of inactivity, a time of passive forgetting. It
has a deep spiritual significance and value....It is
Nature's chief restorative, the refuge she offers to
every creature.

The
Practice of Devotion
Sister Devamata
(25 pages, Paper $.75)
Practical instruction in Bhakti Yoga.
From inside: Some people think, most
people work, very few philosophize, but all people love;
and as life has moved further and further away from
the centre towards the circumference, more and more
has it been shaped by this play of desire and emotion.
There are very few to-day who can focus their energies
and turn them inward. |
