Publisher's Synopsis
Rare indeed is the mahatmas (great souls) endowed with the vision of seeing the entire universe within the Atman (Self ), and the Atman within the universe. Even if they are recognized, they may not be inclined to communicate with usor counsel us, immersed as they are in the eternal silence of the Self. Therefore, it is our great fortune when a fully realizedmahatma is ready to advise and discipline us with the tender love of a mother, and the inexplicable compassion of a guru.
