A VERY BRIEF Self-Help Book for the Religious,
By
This review is from: Self-Mastery (Hardcover)
The main idea of this book is the need and means to be the master of ownself. It explains how Man can be his own friend and foe, the need to discipline and control body and mind, conquest of our lower nature (fear, jealousy, hatred, ignorance, greed, lust, etc.), conserve engergies, and lastly, explains what he means by "self-help" and "self-surrender"; the latter which he refers as "surrendering oneself to God".This is a small book with only 84 pages, which one can finish reading easily within a couple of hours. It may not be suitable for all as it uses a "religious" tone, referring to words of Buddha, Christ, etc. and the word "God" appears here and there. Atheists may feel completely (upset) by it.... for others, it may be acceptable but there are better books (which stress the need and teach us how to be Master of Self) out there than this one. |
