Exceptional Traits of Swami Vivekananda by Dr. Sudhish Chandra Banerjee

Swami Vivekananda was a natural genius with a multi-dimensional personality. Though usually considered a spiritual leader or a prophet of modern India, his human aspect, too, was equally manifest and a matter of deep interest for all who aspire to the higher spiritual life. Studying the life and works of Swami Vivekananda for many years, Dr. Banerjee has periodically published essays concerning the various personality traits he has observed through his readings. Seven of these essays have been collected in this book, Exceptional Traits of Swami Vivekananda. The seven traits of Swamiji that Dr. Banerjee has highlighted are: rationalist, artist, scientist, teacher, thinker, patriot and institution-builder.

But the book is more than a discussion of these aspects of Swami Vivekananda's personality. In order to delve into these traits, Dr. Banerjee gives the reader background information in science, philosophy, politics, etc. in order to show how Swami Vivekananda's views on these subjects made him the unique spiritual leader that he was.
