Description
A collection of extraordinarily thoughtful, thought-provoking, and deeply inspiring fourteen essays relevant to present-day India as they were on their first appearance.
Swami Ashokananda served as editor of Prabhuddha Bharata from 1926 through 1930. In those, when India was still under British rule, his monthly editorials created much interest, and sometimes, controversy, among India's intellectual, nationalist, and religious circles. Even today, these editorials are remembered as they deal essentially with the broad sweep of the modern age and with the vital role, both spiritual and practical, that India must play in this age if she is to attain her full potential.
