This beautifully produced book is a labour of love. Sister Gargi, well known for her works on Swami Vivekananda, was initiated by and served Swami Ashokananda for the last years of his life. It tells the story of an extraordinary life of dedication?wholehearted and complete dedication to the mission started by Swami Vivekananda on behalf of Sri Ramakrishna. Highly readable and deeply inspiring.
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
