What is it about Swami Vivekananda that makes him a great spiritual teacher? The obvious answer would be his spiritual realizations. But other great saints, too, have had such spiritual experiences and yet have not become world famous or made the kind of impact that the Swami did. The answer to this question comes from his Master, Sri Ramakrishna. The Swami was born with a divine mission. What that mission was, how the Swami fulfilled it, how he lived his life — these are some of the subjects dealt with in the thirty-nine illuminating articles of this volume. A highly valuable anthology for all the lovers of the great Swami.
Your Atman is the support of the universe -- whose support do you stand in need of? Wait with patience and love and strength. If helpers are not ready now, they will come in time. Why should we be in a hurry? The real working force of all great work is in its almost unperceived beginnings.
