A Manual of Self Unfoldment Paperback – February 1, 2010

I’ve been searching for a book that can summarize the Vedantic philosophy in simply and pragmatically. This book does that. It is also written beautifully and with encouragement for the reader. Highly recommended.

This goes well with the Gita 365 app which shows the video clips of Swami Chinmayananda explaining the Bhagavat Gita.

Swami Chinmayananda provides an excellent introductory framework for understanding Vedanta in clear, simple and practical language. Every sentence in this book is powerful and requires contemplation so that you can truly internalize the concepts in it. At the end of the book, the author also prescribes a self-study curriculum for more in-depth study of Indian scriptures.

I highly recommend this product to someone who wants to know the truth of life. It is so enlightening..! One can lead a better life after reading this, I am sure

I am more unfamiliar with Hindu philosophy, and my friend, who is a Chinmaya devotee, suggested this book to me. It was a fairly quick and easy read, but also quite enjoyable. Definitely recommend.

Wonderful and insightful book. Take your time reading it, connect with it, process and apply to your life as you go through.

everyone must read this. stimulating

I love this book great for people who are on a spritual outlook in life like myself.

Vedanta is explained very clearly. Very easy to understand all the basic concepts of Vedanta. This book gives solid foundation for higher studies of Vedanta.

Book is a good and helpful read

Exceptional book on how and why bringing spirtuality into our lives means we progress both spiritually and in the world. Thank you Gurudev for such a inspiring and life changing book.

This is book number two in the "study scheme" advocated by Swami Chinmayanand. Book number one is "KINDLE LIFE".These two books are best introductory books of Vedānta/Philosophy of Hinduism/Sanātana dharma.Very suitable for modern university educated, scientifically tempered modern person. The logic is fantastic.It is very thrilling to realise that we can understand the basics of Vedānta without any knowledge of sanskrit.I strongly recommend these two books to all intellectuals who want to know about Hinduism! Even if one is a sceptic or an atheist, this book clears one's doubts about Philosophy! Vedānta philosophy is actually subjective science which teaches art of living, living in harmony "within and without", final goal being "Self Realisation"!DO READ THESE TWO BOOKS FRIENDS!

FAntastic read, very enlightening.
