This is a lecture delivered by Swami Vivekananda at the Harvard University. It is perfectly suited for all those who are keen to have a bird's eye view of the Vedanta philosophy. Herein Swamiji puts forward the intricacies of Vedanta metaphysics in a lucid style helping the readers comprehend the matter with an ease that would make the best teachers of Vedanta struck with wonder. The value of the book is further enhanced by the incorporation of the interesting question & answer session that follwed the lecture.
Discriminate within yourself between the real and the unreal. Have you not read the Vedanta? Even when you sleep, keep the sword of discrimination at the head of your bed, so that covetousness cannot approach you even in dream. Practicing such strength, renunciation will gradually come, and then you will see the portals of heaven are wide open to you.
