This book Monastic Disciples of Swami Vivekananda is an English translation of the Bengali work Swamijir Padaprante by Swami Abjayananda. It profiles thirteen principal monastic disciples of Swami Vivekananda, illustrating how they embodied the "neo-monastic ideal." This ideal blends traditional Indian monasticism with a modern focus on the spiritual regeneration of humanity through the "service of God-in-man."

The biographies offer unique glimpses into Vivekananda’s extraordinary personality as a "loving spiritual trainer." Translated by Mrs. Chhaya Ghosh, the work includes a foreword by Swami Madhavananda and was coordinated by Advaita Ashrama to inspire readers with noble aspirations.
