The plants flower, the trees bear fruit and the seeds are dispersed but effortlessly. In the effortless ease of performance and tranquillity, both action and inaction merge into oneness leaving no imprints but only the untainted presence of Divine.
Just as the mirage of a water body can be seen from afar in hot sandy areas and appears real but when one approaches the illusory water body, it disappears into nothingness, in the same manner, the unreal has no existence. The truth, on the other hand, exists under all circumstances.
The seer says that when one is devoted either to manifest or to the unmanifest, he remains in darkness but when one takes all the worlds together, the material and the spiritual, the multiplicity and the singularity of creation, the manifest and the unmanifest, then one transcends the material world and attains immortality. By fulfilling one's duties in this world and by following the spiritual quest, one reaches the Supreme goal.
Thus, all the wealth of this world, this earth cannot bring immortality. But by meditation on the Self, that which cannot be known is known. By transcending the three gunas and detachment to the Prakriti, the Self is known.
When the incessant internal chattering of the mind is silenced to achieve a quiet mind, one is able to observe the facts as they exist, one is in tune with nature and one is able to observe the flow of life in its true essence. In such a state, the mind becomes a powerful instrument to acquire True Knowledge. There are one hundred and one vital tracks that radiate from the heart, one of which goes to the crown of head which leads to immortality. The realised souls leave the body from the crown of the head to merge in the Brahman.
Both the authors are senior government servants and are also deeply interested in spirituality, especially the timeless Sanatan Scriptures. They have spent many years reading the spiritual books of the East and have sought to understand, practice and internalise the spiritual streams. The book is a result of deep thought given by them to the Srimad Bhagavad Gita and the associated scriptures. They have not limited their study only to Sanatan scriptures but have incorporated various other religious thoughts in this work.
