The Saga of A Great Soul - Life and Work of Swami Shivananda
Swami Vividishananda
Swami Shivananda was a monk of such sublime spiritual realizations that Swami Vivekananda called him Mahapurush, a Great Soul. He was the second President of the Ramakrishna Order. Many observations and reminiscences by Swami Shivananda himself are included in this biography written by one who was long associated with him. Foreword by Christopher Isherwood.
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
