Mind vs Intellect
Theme of this book is derived from the holy book titled Bhagvadgita for elaborating different aspects of knowledge and wisdom needed for ensuring Knowing The Self . It has some other sources like Vedas, Upanishads, Old Scriptures, Epics and some other writings of philosophers and thinkers of olden times. We often rely upon some of the prominent sources of philosophy for making aspirants enriched in terms of knowledge and wisdom; as such kind of mental stability will facilitate the fellow aspirant to experience the Divine Omnipresence. We even come across different epics and scriptures and try to imbibe different examples in our daily life. If we talk about the divine then it will definitely become prominent that the realm of such a supreme power is united and widely distributed. We cannot categorise various electro-magnetic waves in terms of their origin and propagation. Similar is the situation regarding origin and development of the Sanatan Philosophy and core of the Spirituality which ensures our integrity to the supreme Divine master. It is beyond the scope of any argument, beyond the accessibility of senses; off the shores of mental awareness.

Brian Black draws attention to these literary elements and demonstrates that they are fundamental to understanding the philosophical claims of the text. Focusing on the Upanisadic notion of the self (ātman), the book is organized into four main sections that feature a lesson taught by a brahmin teacher to a...
