“A word spoken in season,” says the wise man, “how good it is!” If this be true regarding the utterances of uninspired lips, with what devout and paramount interest must we invest the sayings of Incarnate Truth—“the WORDS OF JESUS!” We have, in the motto-verses which head the succeeding pages a few comforting responses from the Oracle of heavenly Wisdom—a few grapes plucked from the... more...

Each and every human being has the capacity to identify his Soul and attain salvation. However, one severe obstacle on this path could be sexual attraction/ infatuation. None other than a Gnani Purush (the enlightened one) can help us understand the science behind sexual attraction and help us get rid of it.

In the lull, which we hope is soon to break the storm of party strife in England, it may not perhaps be impossible to direct public attention to the rapid growth of questions which for the last few years have been agitating the religious mind of Asia, and which are certain before long to present themselves as a very serious perplexity to British statesmen;... more...

Dieses Leben ist ganz zerrüttet. Man weiß noch nicht einmal mehr, warum man dieses Leben lebt. Ein Leben ohne Ziel ist ohne Bedeutung.

Nachdem man als Mensch geboren wurde, was sollte man tun, um das Ziel... more...

The book presented here reveals the properties of the Self and identifies the problems because of which we are unable to realize the Self. The book is divided into two subparts: Part 2 This part discusses the six elements (soul, matter, gatisahayak, sthitisahayak ,kaal and akash) in details and how the whole world is a combination of these elements, and explains the characteristics of matter, property... more...

We have been accustomed to regard with affectionate veneration the life-work of the Reformers, and the theology of the Reformation.
