Impressed by the spiritual mettle of a young monastic disciple named Swami Kalyanananda, Swami Vivekananda once said to him, ?Kalyan, one day you will be a Paramahamsa.? The book contains inspiring reminiscences of this disciple of Swamiji that reveal how he wonderfully exemplified Swamiji?s great ideal of service by showing in his own life the immesurable love, care, sympathy, and self-sacrifice that are required of one who wants to truly serve others.
Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and everything shall be added unto you. This is the one great duty, this is renunciation. Live for an ideal, and leave no place in the mind for anything else. Let us put forth all our energies to acquire that which never fails--our spiritual perfection. If we have true yearning for realization, we must struggle, and through struggle growth will come. We shall make mistakes, but they may be angels unawares.
-Swami Vivekananda
