The book is fairly a comprehensive study of the Social Philosophy of Swami Vivekananda, who is hailed today as a prophet of human emancipation in many parts of the world. The author shows that Vivekananda’s Social Philosophy based on Vedanta (recognized by many as the background philosophy of modern science) contains a revolutionary concept of ‘Man’, a revolutionary concept of ‘Religion’ and a revolutionary concept of ‘Revolution’ itself.
Learning and wisdom are superfluities, the surface glitter merely, but it is the heart that is the seat of all power. It is not in the brain but in the heart that the Atman, possessed of knowledge, power, and activity, has its seat.
-Swami Vivekananda
