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.
They alone live whose lives are in the whole universe, and the more we concentrate our lives on limited things, the faster we go towards death. Those moments alone we live when our lives are in the universe, in others; and living this little life is death, simply death, and that is why the fear of death comes.
-Swami Vivekananda
