An interesting polytheistic analysis on the nature of Soul as preached by Buddhism in comparison to Western Religions like Christianity. A lot of nuanced discussions although what the author understood seems to be on flawed basis with some questionable takes on the concept of Ego itself within the framework of Buddhism. Didn’t expect much from a book that’s like 100 years old and it proved me within expectations.

At certain points it was hard to follow. I expected more information about buddhas teachings. The middle chapters were insightful about the process of the soul.
