Contains a bouquet of thought-provoking essays by Swami Swahananda of the Ramakrishna Order. All the essays are remarkable for their clarity of thought, depth of insight, comprehensiveness of vision and lucidity of expression. They cover quite a wide spectrum of the problems confronting the truth seekers in these days and will amply repay careful study.
Discriminate within yourself between the real and the unreal. Have you not read the Vedanta? Even when you sleep, keep the sword of discrimination at the head of your bed, so that covetousness cannot approach you even in dream. Practicing such strength, renunciation will gradually come, and then you will see the portals of heaven are wide open to you.
-Swami Vivekananda
