A lecture given by Dr. A.P. Gnatyuk-Danil'chuk (Professor of Bengali Language and Literature, Moscow University) in Bengali on Tolstoy and Vivekananda at the Institute in December 1985. ISBN
Be strong! ... You talk of ghosts and devils. We are the living devils. The sign of life is strength and growth. The sign of death is weakness. Whatever is weak, avoid! It is death. If it is strength, go down into hell and get hold of it! There is salvation only for the brave. None but the brave deserves the fair. None but the bravest deserves salvation.
-Swami Vivekananda
