PREFACE
After Swami Vivekananda had succeeded in
rousing interest in the Vedanta amongst the
people of the New World, he sent some of his
brother-disciples there, so that the Vedanta
movement might be put on a sure basis. The
following pages give the history of the pioneer
Vedanta work in America. But it may be called
the history of the transformation of many lives
under the influence of the personality of those
who started the work. In the present volume
will be found vividly described how that wonder-
ful transformation took place, and as such it is
likely to be of great help to those who aspire after
the same goal.
As the " Disciple " came into closer contact
with Swami Turiyananda than with any other
Swami, his work is described in greater detail.
Swami Vivekananda used to say that Swami.
Turiyananda was the living embodiment of
Vedanta. Indeed he was a blazing fire of
spirituality, and whomsoever he touched was
metamorphosed into pure gold. His personality
has become living in these descriptions, and we
feel no doubt that they will give inspiration to
many who had not the privilege of meeting the
Swami while he was in his physical body.
