Complete Works of Swami Vivekananda: All 9 Volumes

In these volumes, we have what is not only a gospel to the world at large, but also, to its own children, the Charter of the Hindu Faith. What Hinduism needed, amidst the general disintegration of the modern era, was a rock where she could lie at anchor, an authoritative utterance in which she might recognise herself. What the world had needed was a faith that had no fear of truth. Both these are found in the words and writing of Swami Vivekananda.-- For the first time in history hinduism itself forms here the subject of generalisation of a Hindu mind of the highest order. For ages to come the Hindu man who would verify, the Hindu mother who would teach her children, what was the faith of their ancestors will turn to the pages of these books for assurance and light. Long after the english language has disappeared from India, the gift that has here been made, through that language, to the world, will remain and bear its fruit in East and West alike.
