About the Book Swami Vivekananda's homecoming revived India and gave her back her self-respect. He made it clear to the Indians that India may be poor in respect of worldly treasures, but in the domain of thought she is the wealthiest. And in the art of showing how noble and beautiful human being can be, India is the most skilled in the world. This self-awareness, this new insight, was Swamiji's contribution to India. It eventually gave rise to a nation-wide regeneration which resulted in the struggle for independence and finally in its attainment.

Romain Rolland said that just as, at the call of Jesus, the dead Lazarus came to life, so also, at Swamiji's call, a moribund India was infused with new life. C. Rajago- palachari rightly said: 'But for him we would have lost our religion and would not have gained our freedom. We therefore owe everything to Swami Vivekananda.'

Swamiji's return to India was, therefore, not just the homecoming of a successful individual. It was the return of the very soul of India.
