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.
Understanding human nature is the highest knowledge, and only by knowing it can we know God. It is also a fact that the knowledge of God is the highest knowledge, and only by knowing God can we understand human nature.
-Swami Vivekananda
