Swami Vivekananda was a natural genius. His human aspect, too, was equally manifest and a matter of deep interest for all who aspire to the higher spiritual life.

The author is a scientist who has studied the life and works of Swami Vivekananda for many years,  and periodically published essays concerning the personality traits he observed. The seven traits that Dr. Banerjee has highlighted that make Swami Vivekananda exceptional are: rationalist, artist, scientist, teacher, thinker, patriot and institution-builder.

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.
