In this book the author makes the abstract Vedanta living. He does this brilliantly by lifting a purely idolatrous, anthropomorphic concept of godhead, particularly Indian, to an ideal of universal significance, and explains how the awakening of little of Mother-worship can transform the entire world beyond recognition, take women to the highest pinnacle of their glory, make men more sublime, truthful and kind-hearted, and this world itself a better place for living, free of all tension and petty bickering.
Who will bring light to the poor? Who will travel from door to door bringing education to them? Let these people be your God -- think of them, work for them, pray for them incessantly. The Lord will show you the way.
-Swami Vivekananda
