This is a selection of Professor R. K. Dasgupta's papers and speeches on philosophy and philosophers �ranging from Dante Alighieri to Swami Vivekananda. A profound scholar with a versatile mind, the professor is well-versed as much in philosophy as in literature, and the reader is sure to benefit by his lucid exposition of abstruse topics.
Learning and wisdom are superfluities, the surface glitter merely, but it is the heart that is the seat of all power. It is not in the brain but in the heart that the Atman, possessed of knowledge, power, and activity, has its seat.
-Swami Vivekananda
