Summary: THE BEGINNING OF A GREAT TRILOGY!
Comment: How can I out do the review by ASTRAL? His review is a work of poetry. And yes, I did vote for it. I read this book many years ago. I found it deeply inspiring. I have seen the spiritual eye many times (as I've stated many times!). Please read the chapter titled "Jesus: A Christ of East and West" to find out a description about it by Yogananda. It is THE most beautiful thing that YOU will ever see. I'm a kriyan or Self-Realizationist yogi. This book is truly a gem. But I follow all of Master's (NOTE: "MASTER" means one who is able to deal with all of life's situations - not like Frankenstein! ) teachings. If you really want to get into Yogananda's teachings, here is the book for for you. Okay. BUT IF YOU ARE A SELF-REALIZATIONIST, PLEASE STICK WITH THE SRF LESSONS BEFORE JUMPING INTO OTHER BOOKS. Yes, you can read them if you have the time. Brother Bhaktananda clipped my wings a little. He was a devotee of Yogananda's while Yogananda was still living. I sent him some of my reviews. I especially wanted him to hear about his reaction to my review, "God Talks to Arjuna", which was translated by Yogananda. It's over a thousand pages and my favorite book. Brother Bhaktananda said, "It's very good! Now what are you going to do with it?" Ouch! So this book is wonderful for those who want to jump right into Yogananda's teachings BUT ARE NOT SELF-REALIZATIONISTS. First study the lessons. Then the service readings. Then the books and recordings. I think the recordings and videos can be very inspiring if you live half-way across the world. If this book tastes good, then buy the second in the trilogy, "The Divine Romance". Then "Journey to Self-Realization". I've been very lucky. SRF, which is my church, has given me permission to practice Insight Meditation for psychotherapeutic reasons along with any other spiritual paths that may help my depressive disorder. SRF is not a "cult" simply because they do not believe that thier way is the ONLY way. This is another reason to buy Man's Eternal Quest. You can dip your beak wherever you want with SRF! It's not a closed system. Please read Astral's review for more details on this book.

Summary: A PRACTICAL- COMMONSENSE VIEW OF LIFE AND RELIGION
Comment: In "MAN'S ETERNAL QUEST" The author shows a special talent and wisdom in his explanation of life's deepest questions in a straight and clear manner. Such precise use of the English language by a foreigner on spiritual material is remarkable.
These talks gave me understrandings that changed my outlook and my life. One can feel that His source of every word is truly from the Living experience of God's reality. And the energy of divine light and love shines through it.This book deepened my Quietest moments.
Among the many areas dealt with in this book, the author has some serious ideas about world peace and brotherhood,"We have everything necessary in the world today to bring about the millennium........A federation of all religions and all nations is necessary. But such a union will come only when every individual engages in that meditation which leads to direct contact with God". So Yogananda places great importance on the practice of MEDITATION in these talks, as well as how to live life more abundantly inevery way.
His knowledge stands out in practical matters as diet also- here talks in the 20's and 30's he gives us ahead of time the accurate knowledge of proper diet that science has only recently (in the 90's) been verifying from years of research. What was the source of his precise wisdom in all these matters??? Is this what comes from "contact with God"? The author proves the value of his own teaching in this and many other ways. I loved the originality and directness of the authors open and intelligent dealings in such a wide range of subjects...

Summary: Best Book One can find on this planet
Comment: I am not looking for any other book. This book was the end of my search. I love it. It's my Guru. Go and read seriously for yourself. You will become a different person. Even though we petty readers should not even try to Judge such a great book, I would give this book 10 Star. I am going through Other books "Divine Romance" & "Journey To Self Realization". But I think reading this one is all that one needs to improve his or her life. Go and Enjoy your reading. Good Luck.
