No One is a Stranger: Dynamics of Nurturing Inter-Personal Relationships with Spiritual Values

If you cannot see God in the human face, how can you see Him in the clouds, or in the images made of dull, dead matter, or in mere fictitious stories of our brain? I shall call you religious from the day you begin to see God in men and women, and then you will understand what is meant by turning the left cheek to the man who strikes you on the right. When you see man as God, everything, even the tiger, will be welcome. Whatever comes to you is but the Lord, the Eternal, the Blessed One, appearing to us in various forms -- as our father and mother, and friend and child --they are our own soul playing with us. Swami VivekanandaThis eclectic anthology brings together talks, essays, poetry and stories in an effort to reinforce to the reader Swami Vivekananda's clear message: We must see each person as Divine.Contributors include Swamis Vivekananda, Ashokananda, Yatiswarananda, Nikhilananda, Pravrajika Vivekaprana and the Dalai Lama, among many others.
