Mysteries of Death, Fate, Karma and Rebirth

Publishers' Note

We are happy to bring to the reading public a seventh research work from the pen of Jugal Kishore Mukherjee who happens to be a senior faculty member of the Higher Course of Sri Aurobindo International Centre of Education, Pondicherry. We have already published six of his previous English works which are:

1.The Destiny of the Body (The Vision and Realisation in Sri Aurobindo's Yoga).

2.From Man Human to Man Divine (Sri Aurobindo's Vision of the Evolutionary Destiny of Man).

3.Sri Aurobindo Ashram: Its Role, Responsibility and Future Destiny.

4.Sri Aurobindo: The Smiling Master (Humour in Sri Aurobindo's Writings).

5.Sri Aurobindo's Poetry and Sanskrit Rhetoric.

6.The Practice of the Integral Yoga (with copious hints for the Pilgrims of the Path).

His readers are aware that Jugal Kishore selects a new non-conventional field of research for each one of his books and gives painstaking attention to its composition. All his books have found favour with his perceptive readers.

The present book is no exception to his general principle. Its very title is significant: Mysteries of Death, Fate, Karma and Rebirth. In this book the author seeks to explore a field which is of universal interest but about which little is known with certainty. "By Way of Explanation" following this "Note" clarifies the rationale of this new book.

We hope the Mysteries will not fail to interest all discerning readers.
