The Self and Its Sheaths: Four Lectures (1895)

The Self And Its Sheaths: Four Lectures is a philosophical book written by Annie Wood Besant in 1895. The book explores the concept of the self and its relationship with the physical body and the world around it. Besant presents a detailed analysis of the different layers or sheaths that make up the human being, including the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual sheaths. She argues that each of these sheaths plays a vital role in shaping our experiences and perceptions of reality. The book draws on Eastern and Western philosophical traditions, including Hinduism, Buddhism, and Theosophy, to provide a comprehensive understanding of the self and its sheaths. It is a thought-provoking and insightful read for anyone interested in philosophy, spirituality, and the nature of human existence.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
