Poems of Swami Vivekananda
Although Swamiji's poems are written in simple language, be it Sanskrit, Bengali or English, in some cases it is not easy to comprehend their meaning. The reason may be that Swamiji penned them in a highly elevated state of mind. They echo the profound wisdom enshrined in the Upanishads, motivating even an ordinary man to strive for the highest goal of spiritual perfection. The poems are significant, moreover, on account of the light they shed on the emotional life of this great monk and his capacity for giving artistic expression to his emotions. Here is a compilation of Swamiji’s Poems followed by commentary in prose that was greeted with warm reception at the time of its first appearance in Bengali. The present volume is an English version of the earlier work.
