In the thirteen short biographies the book contains the author brings alive a galaxy of Swami Vivekananda?s principal monastic disciples and shows how, through their spiritual practices and devoted service of God-in-man, they exemplified the neo-monastic ideal. In addition, through the stories of these disciples we get new glimpses of Swamiji?s extraordinary personality and also see him as a loving spiritual trainer of monks. A book sure to inspire one and all.
If a piece of burning charcoal be placed on a man's head, see how he struggles to throw it off. Similar will be the struggle for freedom of those who really understand that they are slaves of nature.
