Many Christians feel that Christianity is very instructive, but stops there. It tells you what to do and what not to do, but does not give satisfactory answers to "Why"s. Here is a book which explains every word of the "Sermon on the Mount" from basic principles of human existence and purpose. There is a strong fabric of logic based on common undeniable facts of life. Anyone who denounces Christianity as dogmatic should read this book. He is sure to change his views. This book also provides lot of hints on religious life, which can be followed by aspirants of all religions. This is the best commentary on the words of Christ which I have come across.
A book which must be read by anyone who wants to understand and follow the way of Christ.

This wonderful book is essentially a commentary on Christ'sSermon on the Mount written from the viewpoint of a Vedantin who also appears to have an enormous amount of respect for Christianity. Christians and non-Christians alike would be very well served to read this book. My only complaint is that it is written with the assumption that you already believe, to an extent, its main thesis: that Christ's teachings were not exclusivist. I happen to agree with this thesis, but I feel that the book did not argue it thoroughly enough to convince someone who disagrees.

This is a very warm and clear expansion of the Sermon on the Mount, and explains it in simple and readable language. Swami Pramhavananda is a modern writer who can reach you with everyday language and bring through the love of Christ's teaching. This small book is well worth keeping close by and dipping into often.
