Swami Vivekananda chose the orthodox Swami Ramakrishnananda to establish Sri Ramakrishna?s teachings in southern India, because he felt that he was 'unsurpassed in his worship and meditation on God'. This book contains his life and work, reminiscences about him, and a selection of his sayings.
Take up one idea. Make that one idea your life -- think of it, dream of it, live on that idea. Let the brain, muscles, nerves, every part of your body, be full of that idea, and just leave every other idea alone. This is the way to success, and this is the way great spiritual giants are produced. Others are mere talking machines.
-Swami Vivekananda
