Publishers' Preface

The Yoga-Vedanta Forest Academy of The Divine Life Society conducts two-month residential courses on Yoga and Vedanta and various other subjects which are of value to the spiritual aspirant. During the course that was held in March and April 1995, Swamiji gave a series of 17 lectures which cover all aspects of understanding and practice for seekers on the spiritual path. Each lecture is complete yet still progressive in content in that it builds on the previous lecture towards the apex of understanding – the heart and soul of spiritual practice.
