This lecture, delivered at Lahore by Swami Vivekananda, is one of his most comprehensive lectures on Advaita Vedanta. It is presented to the public in this booklet form to serve as a compendium of the Advaita doctrine.
This I have seen in life -- those who are overcautious about themselves fall into dangers at every step; those who are afraid of losing honor and respect, get only disgrace; and those who are always afraid of loss, always lose.
-Swami Vivekananda
