This book is a compilation of some of the important writings and lectures of Swami Virajananda who was one of those first four monks to be initiated into sannyasa by Swami Vivekananda, and later, the sixth President of the Ramakrishna Order. These thought-provoking writings display the author's deep reflection on the Ramakrishna Movement, its great founders, some of its pioneers, and its guiding principles. Many of them also throw light on some aspects of the glorious spiritual heritage of India.
Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and everything shall be added unto you. This is the one great duty, this is renunciation. Live for an ideal, and leave no place in the mind for anything else. Let us put forth all our energies to acquire that which never fails--our spiritual perfection. If we have true yearning for realization, we must struggle, and through struggle growth will come. We shall make mistakes, but they may be angels unawares.
-Swami Vivekananda
