REVIEWS
The Pourings of a Struggling Soul By R. I. Shuh, Ahmedabad.
These are out-pourings, 80 in nun ber, in poetic prose, from a heart tossing between despair and hope, and aspiring to reach eternal everlasting happiness. The musings would re.echo in many a heart, und set into reverberations similar chords. "Music is sweet, weeping is extraordinary sweet", 'The Joys of Poverty are ever enjoyed by the poor, rich in spiritual treasures of Goddess Saraswati.” “O Sages and philosophers, rise from your graves to celebrate my blessed union with my charming, blissful and bewitching be loved of the Eternal City" are some speci. mens of the thoughts contained in the 80 effusions. The Reality of life, by R. V. Shah
"From darkness lead me unto light, from untruth unto Truth”, “Life is nothing to the selfish persons of the worla”, “Truth endures for ever." "The virtuous and learned are not generally rich,' are the basic thoughts pervading this booklet. Wife, by R. V. Shah
It is a fine portrayal in charming words of the ideal of a Hindu wife. "Wife is the harbinger of Faradise, the stepping stone to climb the sublime ladder of spiritual enlightenment, Chastity is her price: less treasure," "Poverty teaches the sublime lessons of love and Bhakti to both the husband and the wife." “Life without wife or without husband means a big zero in the big world." "The wife's kingdom is within the home and not without." The above quotations from this nice little book will give some idea of its usefulness and beauty to those who are united in nedlcck, and to such as are in the enjoyment of single blessedness, but propose to acquire the greater bliss of a married life,
