The Complete Works of Swami Vivekananda Vol. 1
About This Book
The first volume of Vivekananda's nine-volume collected works, containing the famous addresses at the Parliament of the World's Religions in Chicago (1893), lectures on Raja Yoga and Vedanta, and miscellaneous early writings. His Chicago address — "Sisters and Brothers of America" — electrified the audience and marked the beginning of the West's serious engagement with Hindu philosophy.
What You'll Learn
Every religion is a different path up the same mountain; tolerance is not merely a virtue but a recognition of the unity underlying all spiritual traditions. Strength, not weakness, is the basis of true spirituality — Vivekananda consistently preached a muscular, active, world-engaging religion. The Vedantic truth that man is essentially divine — not a sinner — is the most radical and empowering religious idea.
