1. Vivekananda
A concise biography tracing the life, spiritual development, and public work of a charismatic Indian monk who bridged Eastern spirituality and Western thought: it follows his early years and training under his guru, his dramatic emergence on the world stage at the 1893 Chicago Parliament of Religions, his tireless travels and lectures, and the founding of a service-oriented monastic order. The book highlights his core teachings—practical Vedanta, universalism, strength of character, and service to humanity—while using letters, speeches, and contemporary accounts to illuminate his personality, struggles, and lasting influence on modern Hinduism and intercultural religious dialogue.
