One of my favorite series of books! I read from them in class very often, esp., Raja Yoga, but in Jnana, I love his very direct review of man's ignorance toward non-human animals, and how he puts people in their place when they try to support that ignorance on their religion: "A God who is partial to his children called men, and cruel to his children called brute beasts, is worse than a demon. I would rather die a hundred times than worship such a God." (lol)
