About the Book:
This book explores the spiritual philosophy based on two essential elements: knowledge and wisdom. It delves into the concept of two levels of knowledge as described in scriptures:
- Apara Vidya: The lower knowledge, which deals with virtue, vice, means, and ends.
- Para Vidya: The higher knowledge, also known as Brahma Vidya, which leads to wisdom and the realization of the supreme Self (Brahman).
The first part of the book outlines the different aspects of knowledge, ending with a detailed description of the five gods. The second part focuses on the path of wisdom that ultimately leads to the understanding of Brahman. The book is an introduction to India’s priceless spiritual heritage and aims to make these profound teachings accessible to the common person.
