CONCLUSION

From the foregoing pages it will be seen that the Hindu teachers of all ages and schools of thought have insisted on certain fundamentals which may be expressed in modem terms thus: -

1. That our ultimate authority in religion is neither a miraculous revelation nor individual reason, neither the single teaching of any Founder nor mere tradition but the spiritual experience of a host of seers which every man can make his own by undergoing the necessary discipline.  

2. That, as there is a law of causation in the physical world, there is a law of consequence called the. Law of Karma in the moral world, according to which a man reaps as he sows, his present life  being determined by the past and his future by the present. 

3. That out of this region of the Law of Karma there is a way called Yoga which leads man to the ineffable perfection of God and which has three important aspects, namely, Karma-yoga or the way of selfless action, Bhakti-yoga or the way of self-forgetting devotion and Jnana-yoga or the way of self - transcending knowledge.
