  A Friend of Youth
A Frirnd of Youth
Despite the age difference, Pramukh Swami Maharaj effectively bridges the gap in his interaction with youths of all backgrounds and from all walks of life. Such is his love for them and understanding of their psyche that his approach to their specific problems and the solutions he suggests to overcome them are readily accepted. These incidents provide essential guidance for anyone who has to deal with the youths of today.
