The dots in 'The Complete Works of Swami Vivekananda' are simply exasperating. The Ramakrishna Mission forthwith must fill them up, where they have unduly edited them. The rest may have been words lost and irrecoverable, and we may only keep guessing as to what they might have been. But where the words and phrases and clauses and passages have been edited to extinction, it would be historical justice to reinsert them where they belong to lend wholeness to the Swami's words which were never so fractional.
