The Pran Shakti (the vital power or source of life-force) is Pmanifested as some kind of bioelectrical energy which is
pervaded in the world like air, sky, heat, light, ether and
plasma..... Higher amounts of this power in a living being is reflected
in greater courage, alacrity, vitality and brilliance. This is a source of
vitality and vigor in the body and of sagacity and talents in the mind.
It accounts for the ojas (splendor or of energy and strength) of the
gross body and tejas (eminence and creativity) of the subtle body
(mind).
The author has brilliantly described the modern scientific and
spiritual facets of the supernormal powers of premonition,
clairvoyance, prophesy, telepathy, transformation of matter in
empty space, discoveries by intuition, ....etc. Most importantly, he
has emphasized that presence of such powers alone is not a sign of
greatness of personality. These powers are natural consequence of
activation of the otherwise dormant or unused prarña shakti. In his
views, praiseworthy are the sincere endeavors to prevent the
onward flow or loss of this power and gravitate it for creative
refinement of the self devoted to the altruistic welfare of all. Success
of such endeavors may lead to the transmutation of the vital force up
to the highest realms of divinity..... Aspirant readers would find
practical guidance in this regard as well.
