Mysterious Knowledge - Vedic Wisdom

Saket Shah

The life of man in this sense-universe is a life of temptation. Man is born for Self-realisation. He is born for leading a religious life. But he is led astray by the temptations of his environments. He is spoiled by society. He has not got the strength of will to resist the temptations. The desire to attain knowledge of the Self will dawn in these proud, egoistic people only when they meet some adversities, calamities, troubles and disappointments. The desire to attain the knowledge of the Self dawns in a person who is free from desires for sense-objects. Such a man, with a pure mind alone, is competent to tread the spiritual path. With my experience in this book I am explaining mystery of creation, world, rebirth, death, liberation, religion, avatar, faith, maya and ego. If the readers of this books get enlighten by my knowledge I will feel happy and bliss. I welcome you all to my journey of sprituality.
Regards,
Saket Shah
