The late Swami Vireswaranandaji, President of the Ramakrishna Math and Mission, though a nonagenarian, was very youthful in spirit and took active interest in all youth movements. In this booklet is the English translation of his stirring appeal to the youth to rebuild India. This message in Bengali was distributed as a booklet on the occasion of the first National Youth Day celebrated on 12 January 1985 at the Belur Math, the headquarters of the Ramakrishna Order.
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
