The writings and speeches of Swami Abhedananda, a direct disciple of Sri Ramakrishna, were spread over a long period of ministration both in America and in India. His deep philosophical insight and unfathomed spirituality greatly attracted learned people all over the world. All his writings and speeches are available in this set of eleven volumes.
Discriminate within yourself between the real and the unreal. Have you not read the Vedanta? Even when you sleep, keep the sword of discrimination at the head of your bed, so that covetousness cannot approach you even in dream. Practicing such strength, renunciation will gradually come, and then you will see the portals of heaven are wide open to you.
-Swami Vivekananda
