Nikhil Yadav, Ananya Awasthi . Rupa Publications India . English
Why and how is Vivekananda relevant today? Why are his teachings required now more than ever? Why is it important to revisit them?<br><br> <i>Living the Vivekananda Way: Practical Spirituality for Modern India</i> is not just a biography. It goes much beyond that. It explores the depth, relevance and significance of his message, teachings and thoughts. <br><br> In a world increasingly fragmented by materialism, technology and social divides, Vivekananda�s timeless wisdom offers a much-needed compass. His call for unity, self-reliance and compassion is a powerful antidote to the growing sense of disconnection we are experiencing today. This book focuses on how his teachings on strength, fearlessness and holistic well-being can be a guiding light for navigating the complexities of modern life. <br><br> This book is more than an exploration of one man�s journey; it is a timely reminder that his teachings are not relics of the past, but a living, breathing source of inspiration that can be applied to the challenges and opportunities of the modern world.
