Immortality and the Self. “So practically and exhaustively is each phase of the subject treated that it may well serve as a text-book for any one striving for self-development and a deeper understanding of human nature.”--_Toronto Saturday Night_, Dec., 1905. “It will also be welcomed by students of the Vedic Scriptures, since each chapter is based upon some one of the ancient Vedas known as the Upanishads, and many passages are quoted.”--_Chicago Inter-Ocean_, Jan., 1906. “The book, from the gifted pen of the head of the Vedânta Society of New York, presents in a clear manner, calculated to arrest the attention of those not yet familiar with Vedic literature, the principles of self-knowledge as taught by the leaders of that philosophy.... The many passages quoted prove the profound wisdom and practical teaching contained in the early Hindu Scriptures.”--_Washington Evening Star_, Dec., 1905. “A new book which will be welcome to students of Truth, whether it be found in the Eastern religions, in modern thought or elsewhere.”--_Unity_, Nov., 1905. “The book is very well written.”--_San Francisco Chronicle_, Dec., 1905. “In forcefulness and clearness of style it is in every way equal to the other works by the Swâmi Abhedânanda, who has always shown himself in his writings a remarkable master of the English language.”--_Mexican Herald_, Dec., 1905.
“The volume is forcefully written, as are all of this author’s works, and cannot fail to be of great interest to all who have entered this field of thought. A fine portrait of the Swâmi forms the frontispiece.”--_Toledo Blade_, Nov., 1905. Spiritual Unfoldment. I. Self-control. II. Concentration and Meditation. III. God-consciousness. Paper, 35 cents. Cloth, 50 cents. Postage, 2 and 6 cents. “This attractive little volume comprises three lectures on the Vedânta Philosophy. The discourses will be found vitally helpful even by those who know little and care less about the spiritual and ethical teachings of which the Swâmi is an able and popular exponent. As the Vedânta itself is largely a doctrine of universals and ultimates, so also is this book of common utility and significance among all races of believers. Its precepts are susceptible of application by any rational thinker, regardless of religious predilection and inherited prejudices. The principles set forth by this teacher are an excellent corrective of spiritual bias or narrowness, and as such the present work is to be commended. It has already awakened an interest in Oriental literature that augurs well for the cause of human brotherhood, and it merits a wide circulation among all who cherish advanced ideals.”--_Mind_, April, 1902. Reincarnation. New and Enlarged Edition. Paper, 40 cents. Cloth, 60 cents. Postage, 3 and 7 cents. I. What is Reincarnation? II. Heredity and Reincarnation. III. Evolution and Reincarnation. IV. Which is Scientific, Resurrection or Reincarnation? V. Theory of Transmigration.
