Vedanta: Glas slobode

Vedanta: Glas slobode

Swami Vivekananda

A collection of writings by the Indian philosopher and spiritual teacher, published posthumously, based on his speeches and writings. Svāmī Ćetanananda selected 104 essays from the mature period of Svāmī Vivekānanda, from 1893 to his death in 1902.

The book presents the essence of Vedanta, an ancient Indian philosophical tradition that emphasizes the unity of the soul (Atman) and the absolute reality (Brahman). Vivekananda, a key propagator of Hinduism in the West, especially after his speech at the 1893 World Parliament of Religions in Chicago, presents Vedanta in this work as a universal spiritual philosophy accessible to all, regardless of faith.

The book covers topics such as the nature of the soul, divine unity, karma, reincarnation, and liberation (moksha). Vivekananda emphasizes the practical application of Vedanta through yoga (jnana, bhakti, karma, and raja), calling for spiritual development and self-realization. He criticizes dogmatism and materialism, promoting freedom of the spirit and universal love. His style is clear, inspiring, and adapted to a Western audience, thus connecting Eastern spirituality with modern rationalism.

The collection includes speeches, essays, and letters, reflecting Vivekananda's vision of a world in which different religions lead to the same goal - the realization of truth. The book is significant for understanding Vedanta as a universal spiritual system and remains a key work for the study of Hindu philosophy and interreligious dialogue.
