This little book is an attempt to answer some of the typical questions posed by students as well as critics. These answers help remove misconceptions by offering explanations indicative of the origin of familiar ideas and institutions.
Brave, bold men and women, these are what we want. What we want is vigor in the blood, strength in the nerves, iron muscles and nerves of steel, not softening namby-pamby ideas. Avoid all these. Avoid all mystery. There is no mystery in religion.
-Swami Vivekananda
