Publisher's Note

"What is Knowledge" is a series of 10 discourses that Swami Krishnananda gave in the Ashram's Academy during April-May 1983.

During these courses Swamiji would take up various subjects of a philosophical, spiritual and sometimes historical nature. A number of the books on this website consist of the courses that were given to students in the Academy

In this series, Swamiji explains what real knowledge is, its importance especially to seekers of Truth, and how to attain that understanding which liberates the soul.
