This excellent compilation from the works of Swami Vivekananda is not merely instructive but also provocative in the sense that it makes the readers feel, with a compelling sense of urgency, that they ought to be on the road to Personality Development. For is not a developed personality a sine quo non for success in all the fields of human life and endeavour? How to attain it? What are its means? The readers will find these questions answered in these illuminating pages. Here is a book which can make the readers view themselves in a new light.
Be brave! Be strong! Be fearless! Once you have taken up the spiritual life, fight as long as there is any life in you. Even though you know you are going to be killed, fight till you are killed. Don't die of fright. Die fighting. Don't go down till you are knocked down.
-Swami Vivekananda
