The Philosophical and Religious Lectures of Swami Vivekananda
Swami Tapasyananda
A précis of the lectures is made in about one third of the size of the originals, with appropriate paragraph headings that serve as landmarks to guide the reader through the thought-content of the lectures. :
Let each one of us pray day and night for the downtrodden millions, who are held fast by poverty, priestcraft, and tyranny. Pray day and night for them. I care more to preach religion to them than to the high and the rich. I am no metaphysician, no philosopher, nay, no saint. But I am poor and I love the poor.
-Swami Vivekananda
