About this listen
"After so much tapasya I have understood this as the highest truth: God is present in every being. There is no other God besides that. He who serves all beings serves God indeed." (Swami Vivekananda)
A journey through the life of Swami Vivekananda is a study of the Indian civilization, its ethos and value system. Not only did his message of tolerance, based on knowledge, make him an exemplary spokesperson of the country, but his life's mission of creating an order of monks who dedicated their lives for others made him a prophet and a leader. His teachings continue to be relevant even today, especially in the light of the prevailing intolerance and fanaticism in the nation, and the increasing turmoil in the world.

Good book; bad narration
The narrator’s pronunciation of Indian words is abysmal. There were also several instances where he paused at wrong places, making the sentence confusing.
The story itself is not so much about Swamy Vivekananda’s teachings, but about his travels and life in general.

Good book but bad narration
The narrator’s pronunciations of Indian names and other words spoils it for such a wonderful book. Sharada as स र द, math as माथ, samadhi as सामदी , tapasya as तपास्या :((
I completed listening to the book only for the awe and respect for Swami Vivekanand.
