The
Holy Science is a book of theology written by
Swami Sri
Yukteswar Giri in 1894. The text provides a close comparison of parts of the Christian Bible to the Hindu Upanishads, meant to show as clearly as possible that there is an essential unity in all religions...and that there is but one Goal admitted by all scriptures.

The final chapter is called The Revelation, and discusses the end of the path for those who are near the three ideals of life. Swami Sri
Yukteswar also displays his impressive knowledge and understanding of astrology by proposing his theory of the Yuga Cycle.
