Masters And Mystics

The Seers and Saints belong to all: they are the monopoly of no nation, religion or race.

They are attuned to cosmic forces and the cosmic will. Their values of life are not the values of this world, — money, honours, earthly goods. The truly great ones value the invisible treasures fo the Eternal.

They fear not the power of men. They fear not death. For they have looked into the radiant face of life. They have learnt to renounce the goods of time and all ambition and all reputation.

They hate none and they harm none. For to them every creature, — human and sub-human, — is a brother, a sister, in the one Kingdom of Life. They see the very atoms illuminated with Light and every planet and every sun and every star is to them flooded with love in the one Sea of Life.

They are all rich in reverence of the poor and forlorn. And they bear witness to the spirit of sacrifice. The immeasurable breaks through their life and teaching. Their words once heard are not easily forgotten : they linger in the heart. Not without reason has their teaching been treasured in the memory of Humanity.

Sadhu Vaswani saw the Light in all Prophets, in all Saints, in all Mystics. He has written on hundreds of the world's Sages and Seers. The present volume contains some of Sadhu Vaswani's writings on some Great Ones of Humanity.
