To Thine Own Self Be True

by Swami Krishnananda

Publshers' Preface

The present publication is significantly titled as 'To Thine Own Self Be True,' since the main undercurrent of the message in these seven lectures is an emphasis on the need to search for one's True Self through an acute analysis of the variety of psychological involvements in which the essential Selfhood of Being seems to be enmeshed. These discourses were delivered extempore during the seven-day annual function at the Headquarters of the Divine Life Society subsequent to the Sri Guru-Purnima celebration in the year 1993. It is hoped that this veritable treatise will ever remain as a handbook of guidance to lovers of Truth.
