This is a compilation of 134 reminiscences of Swami Ranganathananda, presenting his multi-faceted personality in an inspiring as well as interesting manner. The Swami, in his long monastic career of about eight decades, had contributed in diverse fields, of which the most significant and notable one, for which he was reputed all over the world, was his contribution as the cultural and spiritual ambassador of India to the world. A very colourful picture of the Swami thus emerges out of the pages of this book.
Nature, body, mind go to death, not we. We neither go nor come. The man Vivekananda is in nature, is born and dies; but the Self we see as Vivekananda is never born and never dies. It is the eternal and unchangeable Reality.
-Swami Vivekananda
