To require of the student that he should swallow the pills of metaphysical theory and theological dogma, without protest, were no better than to pour concentrated carbolic or sulphuric acid on the skin and then to expect the unfortunate victim to keep quiet! These lectures were given under the inspiration of such beliefs, formed partly from personal experience in teaching, and partly derived from the wisdom of our Hindu Rishis and Gurus. Intended especially for beginners, and delivered ea: tempore, they do not claim to be a systematic treatise; they will serve their purpose if they succeed in persuading the reader that he and I are of one blood and one life.
