A Colossus Named Vivekananda: Whose Mission Awaits Completion

 
Romain Rolland (Author)
Synopsis ‘Vivekananda has serenely wedded the West and the East. He saw that his first duty was towards his first neighbour, his own people. His universal soul was rooted in its human soul and the smallest pang suffered by its inarticulate flesh sent a repercussion through the whole tree. His claim to greatness lies in the fact that he not only proved its unity by reason, but stamped it upon the heart of India in flashes of illumination. He had a genius for arresting words and burning phrases hammered out white hot I the forge of his soul so that they transpierced thousands. It may justly be said that India’s destiny was changed by him, and that this teaching re-echoed throughout humanity.’

About the author

Romain Rolland

Romain Rolland (1866-1944) was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature two years after Rabindrarnath Tagore did – in 1915 – for his already famous novel Jean Christophe. A musician and a pacifist, he was much attracted by Vivekananda’s Advaita and ideas of a World Religion, and, disturbed by the First World War, he decided to learn more and write about not only him but also his Master. He also wrote the life-stories of Leo Tolstoy and Mahatma Gandhi. For a while he worked with the Red Cross to serve the suffering. His literary writings set new Red Cross to serve the suffering. His literary writings set new trends in world literature. Romain Rolland’s reputation as an idealist and free-thinkers made him welcome all over the world.
