Swami Vivekananda was the first to infuse the spirit of revolt into the Indian mind; revolt not only against political subjugation, but against all kinds of social evils and exploitation. He was also the first to give the call to work among the asses where the real power of the nation lay. Prof Hiren Mukherjee deals with the subject 'Vivekananda and Indian Freedom' in a refreshing way by delving into history and bringing out facts often under-rated, if not altogether ignored.
The less passion there is, the better we work. The calmer we are, the better for us and the more the amount of work we can do. When we let loose our feelings, we waste so much energy, shatter our nerves, disturb our minds, and accomplish very little work.
-Swami Vivekananda
