Spiritual Treasures - Letters by Swami Turiyananda
Swami Chetanananda
Swami Turiyananda was, without doubt, one of the spiritual giants of twentieth century India. This collection of letters of the great Swami will appeal both to the spiritual seeker and the more academically inclined student of Hindu spirituality. The former will find in these pages inspiration and practical instruction, especially for dealing with periods of spiritual dryness. The latter will gain insight into the Vedantic path and methods of spiritual direction. The words of these letters resonate with extraordinary power and compassion arising out of the Swami's profound God-experience, of which they are profound evidence.
There is only one sin -- and that sin is weakness. When I was a boy, I read Milton's Paradise Lost. The only good man I had any respect for was Satan. The only saint is the soul who never weakens, faces everything, and determines to die game.
-Swami Vivekananda
