No One Is a Stranger

The title of the book is taken from the last message of Sri Sarada Devi to the world —“Learn to make the whole world your own. No one is a stranger, my child. The whole world is your own.” In keeping with the message, this compilation of articles contains several insightful ideas on how to nurture inter-personal relationships with spiritual values, the stress being on the word ‘spiritual’.

Reminiscences and anecdotes highlight the practical ways the thoughts in the book can be translated into action. An English rendering of a Bengali poem by Swami Vivekananda and an article by The Dalai Lama find place. The opinions of a cross-section of people, mainly youth, on the subject of the book have also been published.

Individuals and organisations all over the world aiming to enhance the quality of their inter-personal relationships will benefit from reading this book.
