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.
Why are people so afraid? The answer is that they have made themselves helpless and dependent on others. We are so lazy, we do not want to do anything ourselves. We want a Personal God, a Savior or a Prophet to do everything for us.
-Swami Vivekananda
