Guest guest Posted November 23, 2002 Report Share Posted November 23, 2002 Namaste, Swamiji wrote this letter to Josephine McLeod on July 20, 1900 http://www.ramakrishnavivekananda.info/Vivekananda%202.00/Complete% 20Works.htm Volume 8 / Epistles - Fourth Series / CLXXXVI To Miss Josephine MacLeod 102 E. 58TH STREET, NEW YORK, 24th July, 1900. DEAR JOE, The sun = Knowledge. The stormy water = Work. The lotus = Love. The serpent = Yoga. The swan = the Self. The Motto = May the Swan (the Supreme Self) send us that. It is the mind-lake. (This explains the design on the Ramakrishna Math and Mission seal, printed on the title page of this volume — Ed.) How do you like it? May the Swan fill you with all these anyway. I am to start on Thursday next, by the French steamer La Champagne. The books are in the hands of Waldo and Whitmarsh. They are nearly ready. I am well, getting better — and all right till I see you next week. Ever yours in the Lord, VIVEKANANDA. Regards, Sunder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
