Religion Philosophy And Spirituality

This book is brought out from Swami Anubhavananda's talks delivered to the students and staff of Birla Institute Of Technology & Science (BITS), Pilani, Rajasthan. The topic given to me for these talks was so general that anything could be included as content of the speech. However, when I saw the young, intelligent, bright and eager students and their teachers of BITS Pilani, it was felt that these three topics viz., Religion, Philosophy and Spirituality need special and clear-cut treatment to avoid already existing confusion regarding them. Religion is divorced from God and Philosophy lacks wisdom. Hence one must guard oneself from these two elements. Spirituality is a path leading to God under the umbrella of wisdom. Various aspects of these areas of investigation form the contents of this book. It is hoped that this will help many young aspirants to follow the path of spirituality and protect themselves from the segregating attitude of religion and noisy arguments of philosophy.
