The Attainment of the Infinite

by Swami Krishnananda

Publishers' Note

His Holiness Sri Swami Krishnanandaji Maharaj, one of the greatest philosophers and mystics of all time, has illumined countless seekers all over the world through personal contact, and through Swamiji's innumerable talks, discourses and lectures, many of which have been published in book form.

Sri Swamiji Maharaj always took great care in editing the manuscripts of transcribed discourses before they were published, with the view that reading a subject is different from hearing it spoken.

The Attainment of the Infinite is the first publication by Brahmaleen Sri Swami Krishnanandaji Maharaj to be released since Swamiji attained Mahasamadhi in November 2001. This book is a series of discourses given during the Ashram's annual Sadhana Week in 1996, and is being presented to the reader almost exactly as it was spoken, since none other than the Master himself can edit his ideas.

It is certain that Swamiji's loving and heartfelt style of expression, combined with the profundity and depth of Swamiji's thoughts, will be a great delight to spiritual seekers everywhere.
