I find it hard to believe that no one has yet reviewed this excellent little book. Written in 1934 it is probably more relevant today than it was when it was first published. The book discusses the nature of man and his soul without being overly religious or psychoanalytic. Paul Brunton provides a series of practical mental excercises and guidance, which are described in successive chapters. What for? The answer is simply that the excercises are designed to help the reader to answer the most difficult question that a person can pose to himself. - "Who am I?". There are no answers from Paul, but he does give some interesting insights into how difficult it is to find the answer for yourself. If you have ever wondered what life is all about, if you are interested in who you really are or if you have ever asked what a "soul" is, then this book is probably in the right ball park for you.

This is an excellent book which I am very glad to have purchased after stumbling across various references to Paul Brunton whilst browsing for articles on meditation, controlling the ego etc.
Although the language is a little old fashioned I found the descriptive phraseology extremely satisfying to read. It added a great deal to my enjoyment of the book. The ideas presented are, however, very accessible and totally relevant to today's society - perhaps even more so than when they were written.
All in all a book that I would heartily recommend to all fans of the books of Eckhart Tolle and for people looking for practical advice in this area of self improvement.

I became a fan of Mr Brunton after reading about the time he spend with Ramana Maharishi.
He is a great writer...and his books are brilliant - some of them quite difficult to get through...
Secret Path is a good read - wish it was printed in a normal sized book...this is probably 4 inches by 2 inches...size...fits in a pocket comfortably though...
