This booklet comprises an illuminating talk given by Swami Ranganathananda in 1980. The author has shown in this talk that the success and achievement of our democracy depends to the extent our citizens are men and women of sound character enlightened with noble qualities of head and heart.
Pray all the time, read all the scriptures in the world, and worship all the gods there are ...[but] unless you realize the Self (atman), there is no freedom.
-Swami Vivekananda
