Review:

A sensitive and perceptive examination of a profoundly important subject by one of the authentic teachers of our time. --Huston Smith

Occasionally we come across a book whose simple, direct yet meaningful language instantly appeals. Such expression is a dominant characteristic of those who are attuned to spiritual consciousness: the simple words of Christ being a supreme example. Swami Satprakashananda here inspires a recall to our true destiny the way to God which he sees in the teachings of Hinduism and Christianity. A book that can be taken as a constant companion. --Hinduism
