Approach to Reality, An

An Approach to Reality is based on addresses delivered by N.Sri Ram, International President of the Theosophical Society, adyar, from 1953 to 1973, in different places over a period of years. ' The subject of Reality is a difficult one', says the author, and the contents of this  book are an attempt by him to define his own understanding, from the standpoint of a student of Theosophy. Mr. Sri Ram continues : ' To one who seeks true understanding without the dogmatism which ever negates the seeking, there is no finality. Seeking implies discovery, and fundamentally, each (person) must come to the truth himself. But there is a value in exchange of views, and even if the comment of readers do not all reach the writer, the calling forth of those comments is in itself a part of the process of exchange.......... If what is said represents the truth to any extent, it can be no one's property or invention. Truth has no owners.'
