In this talk, we study Swami Vivekananda’s “Breaker of This World’s Chain” as a subject for meditation. The Swami wrote and sang this hymn (in Sanskrit, Khandana Bhava Bandhana) to Sri Ramakrishna. It is recited in English after the evening Arati ceremony. Br. Shankara discusses Swamiji’s deeply moving portrait of his Master, and its potentially very great significance to us as spiritual seekers.
