Most people exist, but do not live. The marvellous advance of science and technology is showering on us comforts and luxuries galore, but impart no meaning or purpose to life. Poets bewail this 'strange disease of modern life'. The author, who has interacted with young men and women at various levels in India and abroad, argues convincingly about the ways in which the youth can develop their minds and find fulfilment.
Women will work out their destinies -- much better, too, than men can ever do for them. All the mischief to women has come because men undertook to shape the destiny of women.
-Swami Vivekananda
