By Nilakanta Sri Ram (1889 - 1973).

233 Pages | Second reprint, 2004 | Softcover |Theosophical Publishing House, Adyar | ISBN: 8170590701.

From Chapter I - 'Seeking Wisdom':

" In the 'Dialogue' dealing with the death of Socrates, Plato explains that the true philosopher meets death as a friend and not as an enemy., because he understands the nature of the change, which death brings about. It is a natural and happy change. One's attitude towards death depends on one's understanding of life, the true nature of which is inseparable from the truth with regard to death. Philosophy means literally 'Love of the Wisdom'. These are two words, each of which has an extraordinary and beautiful meaning. It would be well worth while for us to try to understand what the true nature of Love is, and what is really meant by Wisdom, which of course is not mere knowledge. "
