Part 1, The Ego is one of Paul Brunton’s greatest and most unique gifts to the literature of realisation – a truly earth-shaking piece of work for serious spiritual seekers. With no holds barred, it exposes, at an existential level, the most fundamental problems that obstruct achieving a life of unfailing self-integrity. Part 2, From Birth to Rebirth , shows the role of death in the ongoing cycle of life, clarifies beliefs about reincarnation, and explores the creative relationships between fate, destiny, and free will.
