Meditation: Its Process, Practice, and Culmination
Swami Satprakashananda
A practical approach to the path and practice of meditation. Included in this study are meditations the swami directed during his scriptural classes, an examination of the four yogas, and a discussion on their culmination in the realization of the non-dual Brahman.
What the world wants is character. The world is in need of those whose life is one burning love--selfless. That love will make every word tell like a thunderbolt. Awake, awake, great souls! The world is burning in misery. Can you sleep? Work unto death--I am with you, and when I am gone, my spirit will work with you. This life comes and goes--wealth, fame, enjoyments are only of a few days. It is better, far better, to die on the field of duty, preaching the truth than to die like a worldly worm. Advance!
-Swami Vivekananda
