About the Book Dedicated to the hallowed memory of the erudite monk Swami Prajnanananda Ex-President, Sri Ramakrishna Vedanta Math, Kolkata, the selected collection of Research Articles by more than seventy scholars is presented as a humble tribute to him in celebration of his hundredth Birthday. With a number of articles on the life and spiritual legacy of him and his great preceptors, Sri Ramakrishnadev and Swami Abhedananda, starting as the initial homage, the collection is categori zed into twelve Sections with eightyone Chapters in all. These Sections are endeavoured to be comprising of the different facets of Indian Culture. Even if these Sections subject-wise are not all comprehensive, the Chapters in all totality are considered to be reasonably exhaustive. Among the Sections, some specially on Arts and Music are very relevantly to be appreciated as those most dear to the Swamiji whose written contribution in these spheres remains still unique and invaluable. In selecting the contributors for some of the articles, special care has been taken to include those that were imbued with his spiritual message by personal contact in life, The compendium, after all, is only meant to be a fitting homage to that great soul, rather than as a fruitful storage of reports on researches on the subjects uptodate. Herein lies the justification for a planned and selective treatise as this and the fulfilment of the purpose for which it is meant.
