SWAMI'S LIBRARY WISH LIST

Many students have asked whether they could bring a small gift for Swami Vivekananda when they come to visit, or specifically whether they could send him some books. The truth is that Agama now has a fairly extensive library and at time students bring books which Swami already has. To couple the beautiful gesture of extending a gift with what remain practical needs, we have put together the wish list here – some standard books, others difficult to find or out of print and available through rare book dealers or antiquarian shops. We highly recommend www.abebooks.com.

Please know that, if you have it in your means and heart to purchase any of these books, your donations are deeply appreciated. Books may be sent to:

Swami Vivekananda Saraswati
Ananda Yoga Resort
16/3, M-6
Ao Hin Kong
Koh Phangan 84280
Surat Thani, THAILAND
