Swami Paramananda, an enlightened mystic, has once more met the
challenge of bridging the gap between science and spirituality. In his
30th book, The Self Beyond Psychology, he has not only brilliantly
exposed the limitations of psychology, but also revealed the true nature
of the self, which so far has proved to be beyond its scope. As he so
rightly states, "Psychology, which boasts of being a science of human
behaviour, has, like mainstream science, failed to understand the
fundamental nature of man."
The reader will be marvelled to travel in the inner universe, far beyond
the limits of contemporary psychology, to probe into the mystery of the
self, skilfully revealed by the light of wisdom of Swamiji. From this
novel standpoint, humanity will no doubt be empowered with the precious
knowledge it so badly needs to free itself from the quagmire of
confusion and ignorance in which it is presently enmeshed.
This laudable endeavour of Swami Paramananda indeed provides a true
holistic understanding of human nature in contrast with the fragmentary
and partial understanding of mainstream science and psychology.
