Publisher's Synopsis
This is a book of questions and answers written specially to inspire students across the globe. It has attempted to document Swami Vivekananda's historic voyage from Bombay to Chicago in 1893, introducing Spiritual India to the Materialistic West. The authors meticulously researched every minute detail of that memorable journey that influenced Indian and global history.
It was his famous lectures at the Chicago World Parliament of Religions in September 1893, and later the foundation of Vedanta Society (still thriving) in New York in 1894 that paved the way for yoga in the USA and the birth of modern yoga (including Pranayama and meditation) as a transnational movement.
