and provide thought-provoking answers to the burning questions that all students of spirituality grapple with on the journey to Self-discovery.

Swami Chinmayananda travelled the world for forty-two years expounding the teachings of the Vedas through lectures, books and videos. He came to be regarded as one of the most respected teachers of Vedanta. Thousands attended his lectures and devotees often asked him many questions. In 1992, Mananam published Satszmga, which contained answers to many of these queries. Devotees found the original book very helpful in answering questions that came up in their spiritual journey and many asked for a reprint. Part one and two of this book are updated versions of that publication.

Part three of this book includes responses to questions posed to Swami Tejomayananda during Various lectures and satsanga. He is the current spiritual leader of Chinmaya Mission and has published many inspiring writings of his own. From these treasures, we have included additional material, especially from his recently published book in India, You Ask, He Answers.

Combining material from these two great Masters of Vedanta, provides a" powerful source of teachings. As you read this book, you will find that the questions cover a broad spectrum of topics.

The answers are addressed to particular individuals and the responses are according to the level of understanding of each person asking the question. The deeply inspired words of these two Men of Wisdom encourage us all to broaden our vision so that we may live our lives with greater spiritual understanding. As students of Vedanta, we are very grateful to be in the company of these sages, who ensure that this priceless treasure of Knowledge continues to flow from generation to generation.
