description: The first volume of Mr. Sri Ram’s Thoughts for Aspirants (see below) was so enthusiastically received, that this second series was compiled for publication. The author was working on revisions when he passed away in 1973. Although he was unable to complete what he intended to do, the unrevised parts retain his clarity of thought, and the poetic but precise expression which was characteristic of all his writing.The first edition of Thoughts for Aspirants was compiled in 1950, for the most part from unpublished notes and writings of Mr. N. Sri Ram. The author, President of the international Theosophical Society from 1953-1973, wrote numerous articles and gave lectures in many countries between 1950 and the early 1970s. He was revered for the depth and richness of his understanding and wisdom, as well as for his eloquence.The “thoughts” are short quotes gathered into themes such as Love, Peace, Humility and Simplicity, Brotherhood, and Spirituality. About Unity, he writes, “Whether in a speck of dust, or in a leaf or flower, or in the least living thing, it is the One Life which exists as the innermost reality, the Truth of truths.”
