The present book is a compilation of the recorded lectures and statements of Swami Vivekananda on Buddha and Buddhism. Its perusal will give the reader a fairly comprehensive idea of the unique personality of Buddha, his enlightening message, and the historical development of Buddhism. No one can read it without being struck by the power, range, depth and beauty of Swamiji?s thoughts.
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.
