This book contains the life (in brief) and teachings of an extraordinary personality, Swami Premananda, a direct disciple of Sri Ramakrishna. He was, indeed, a man of God, and was the very personification of prema, love. He drew others to him by his extraordinary love and breadth of heart. Those who came in touch with him were completely transformed. His was a life that is sure to inspire one and all even now .
Bless people when they revile you. Think how much good they are doing by helping to stamp out the false ego. Hold fast to the real Self. Think only pure thoughts, and you will accomplish more than a regiment of mere preachers. Out of purity and silence comes the word of power.
-Swami Vivekananda
