  1. Thank you for sharing Swami Vivekananda's works on Hinduism. Trained under the vigilant eyes of Shri Ramakrishna Paramhansa, Swamiji was trained to impart knowledge and wisdom of the Sanatana Dharma to humanity. His letters, his interpretation of Bhagvat Gita, his speeches including the one made at the Parliament of Religion convey this all encompassing unifying message of Sanatana Dharma. Swamiji had asked his master Sri Ramakrishna have you seen God? Master had replied, " not only I have seen him, I can show you too." Swamiji passed on this message and learning. God is not a matter of faith alone, it can be realised through Sadhana. It is the science. It is yoga. Swami ji taught this. He also taught one cannot attain God in an empty stomach. So feeding the poor is akin worship of God.

  4. Long, long time back, in 1994, someone gifted me his biography. Sadly, I didn't read it then. But as I visited an ashram dedicated to him in Uttarakhand some years back, my interest in his philosophy has risen. I shall try and get one of the book from your list.

  5. Shifali , being a Bengali and born and brought up in West Bengal I grew up hearing the stories of Swami Vivekananda and Ramkrishna Paramansha. Very few has the vision and mission like SWami ji at that time. My mother in law is a follower of Swamiji, Ramakrishna and Sarada Ma. My husband also studied for few years in RamKrishna Mission Medinipore and I also read the works of SWamiji .... if not all but for few throught processes I also admire and respect SWamiji.

    1. Just curious, Aishwarya. Why is the font difficult to read? I thought they are big and easy on the eye. Just asking to know if I'm missing something. Hope you don't mind me asking. :)

Taming the Turbulent Mind: Yogic Meditation and Mindfulness by Deekay

 Taming the Turbulent Mind: Yogic Meditation and Mindfulness for Combating Overthinking, Achieving Stress Relief, and Attaining Absolute Peace  Deekay | Book Review What is turbulence? Any thoughts, or have you ever tried to tame any animal? I remember watching circus shows organised once a year in the city's open area for all the locals to enjoy. There I used to cherish the person who tamed the elephants or the lion (if any). But today I thought of taming my mind. Every second our thoughts are randomly moving and giving us goosebumps. Nowadays people have so many threads of work looming in their minds that they feel like completing but fail to prioritise. To dive into a river is not easy. But only a few people have the calibre to do that. The same is true with diving in your mind. This practice needs calmness of mind and anxiety levels to be very low. I had heard about meditation and its techniques to apply in your daily routine, but when I stumbled upon this book, my myths w...

This book is a straightforward, simple way to deal with setting your well-being and funds up. It's a very fun read stacked with significant counsel. The writers work hard at building trust by sh...
