Description
This volume of about two hundred and fifty pages dealing with the four Yolgas-Karma Yoga, raja Yoga, Bhakti Yoga and Jnana Yoga – is a précis of swami Vivekananda’s great lectures on these subjects published originally in four volumes, here condensed into about one third of the original.
The object of this book is two-fold – on the one hand, to help new students of Swami Vivekananda literature with a general survey of the teachings which they are going to study in detail in the original, and on the other hand, to give those who have already studied them in the original, a brief Note to help refresh their memory. Every effort has been made to be very faithful to the original, as also to interest the reader in the original speeches of the great Swami through their summarized presentation, interspersed with appropriate quotations.
