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.
This world is nothing. It is at best only a hideous caricature, a shadow of the Real. We must go to the Real. Renunciation will take us to It. Renunciation is the very basis of our true life; every moment of goodness and real life that we enjoy is when we do not think of ourselves. - Swami Vivekananda
