Swami Vivekananda in America: New Findings is the thirdwork in a series on “new information” about Swami Vivekananda. The author of this work has unearthedsome new information from various newspapers, reports, articles, and other writings that fill in some of the lacunas in Swamiji’'s life left vacant in the other two works. Here we find more information regarding the setting in which Swamiji had to work in America, the forces that opposed him and those that stood behind him, as also some places that were sanctified by the touch of his feet. Admirers of Swamiji will be delighted at the large number of photographs in color in this work, as they will appreciate the exhaustive references and the detailed index it contains.
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.
