Soham Tattva describes the journey of the seeker of transcendental knowledge. The author of the book tries to share his experience and attempts to recount the state of super-consciousness that is almost impossible to narrate with the help of human language, human feelings, and human knowledge. After overcoming the numerous obstacles scattered across the path of Yoga, the Yogi can reach the supreme goal of Ātma Jnana. Soham Tattva provides a glimpse of the different stages the Yogi passes through in his transcendental journey. It tells how the Yogi should differentiate between the various phases of Yoga and reject the unreal states until he attains Samadhi. First published in 1910, Soham Swami composed this collection of articles in Bengali. The English translation of the articles is now available for the readers.
