Youth is a tremendous power. It is only in youth that the best energies of a person can be put to best use. But this power needs to be channeled in the right direction, for which guidance, right effort, and constant care are necessary. This book contains twenty-four articles that explore the various facets of Youth Power and how it can be guided in the right direction.
Those who have succeeded in attaching or detaching their minds at will have succeeded in Pratyahara, which means gathering towards, checking the outgoing powers of the mind, freeing it from the thralldom of the senses. When we can do this, we shall really possess character; then alone we shall have taken a long step towards freedom. Before that, we are mere machines.
-Swami Vivekananda
