'Within you is the light of the world- the only light that can be shed upon the Path. If you are unable to perceive it within you, it is useless to look for it elsewhere'.

The destiny of the human being is to travel on a path leading to perfection. the Upanishad says this spiritual path is like 'the sharp edge of a razor, difficult to cross and hard to tread. A teacher or a guru may at best give a hint or indicate the direction of the path, but the aspirant has to tread the path by himself.

This little volume describes the nature of the path, the qualifications needed, and the pitfalls encountered. As the theosophical classic Light on the Path says: 'Each man is to him- or herself absolutely the way, the truth and the life'.

From Page 56:

" One of the greatest of Masters, the Lord Buddha, said: 'Be a lamp unto yourself.' He taught: do not make an authority out of tradition, the Scriptures, other people, or me; find out for yourself what is the truth. The importance of enquiry (vichāra) is emphasized also in Vedānta. "
