An Approach to Reality P/b

An Approach to Reality is based on addresses delivered by N. Sri Ram, international Presi-dent of the Theosophical Society, Adyar. from 1953 to 1973, in different places over a period of years. 'The subject of Reality is a difficult one', says the author, and the contents of this book are an attempt by him to define his own understanding, from the standpoint of a student of Theosophy. Mr Sri Ram 'To one who seeks true understanding without that dog-matism which ever negates the seeking, there is no finality. Seeking implies discovery, and fundamentally, each [person] must come to the truth himself. But there is a value in exchange of views, and even if the comments of readers do not all reach the writer, the calling forth of those comments is in itself part of the process of exchange. . . . If what is said represents the truth to any extent, it can be no one's property or invention. Truth has no owners.'
