Inspired Talks

All who had the blessing of personal contact with Swami Vivekananda are of one accord that those who knew him on the lecture platform only, had but a small measure of his true power and greatness. It was in familiar conversation with chosen friends and disciples that came his most brilliant flashes of illumination, his loftiest flights of eloquence and his utterances of profoundest wisdom. Unfortunately, however, his printed works so far have shown us only Vivekananda the lecturer; Vivekananda the friend, the teacher, the loving master, was known only to the happy few who had the rare privilege of sitting at his feet. Glimpses of this side of the great spiritual genius are revealed to us, it is true, in his published letters; but the present volume is the first to give us words spoken by him in the intimacy of an inner circle.
