This book, a compilation of the great Swami�s ideas on education, will serve as a handbook for students, teachers, parents and all educationists, and inspire them to imbibe and impart real education in our society.
The important thing is how much less you think of the body, of yourself as matter -- as dead, dull, insentient matter; how much more you think of yourself as shining immortal being. The more you think of yourself as spirit, the more eager you will be to be absolutely free from matter, body and senses. This is the intense desire to be free.
-Swami Vivekananda
