| Publisher Description: Excerpt from Avataras: Four Lectures Delivered at Me Twenty-Fourth Anniversary, Meeting of the Me Society at Adyar Madras, December, 1899 Our President has truly said that in all the faiths of the world there is belief in such manifestations, and that ancient maxim as to truth - that which is as the hall mark on the silver showing that the metal is pure - that ancient maxim is here valid, that whatever has been believed everywhere, what ever has been believed at every time, and by every one, that is true, that is reality. Religions quarrel over many details; men dispute over many propo sitions; but where human heart and human voice speak a single word, there you have the mark of truth, there you have the sign of spiritual reality. But in dealing with the subject one difficulty faces us, faces you as hearers, faces myself as speaker. In every religion in modern times truth is shorn of her full proportions; the intellect alone cannot grasp the many aspects Of the one truth. SO we have school after school, philosophy after philosophy. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
