The Complete Works of Swami Vivekananda/Volume 8/Epistles - Fourth Series/LXXVIII Blessed and Beloved

To Mr. E. T. Sturdy

. . . I am reading a little, starving a good deal, and practising a good deal more. The strolls in the woods are simply delicious. We are now situated under three huge glaciers, and the scenery is very beautiful.

By the by, whatever scruples I may have had as to the Swiss-lake origin of the Aryans have been taken clean off my mind. The Swiss is a Tartar minus a pigtail. . ..

Yours ever affectionately,

VIVEKANANDA.
