This is the evening of the most spectacular moon of the year, the "Supermoon" to photographers here in the States. Here is a quote from Nivedita's book:

"Notes of Some Wanderings with the Swami Vivekananda"

"And then, looking up, he saw the young moon shining above us, and he said, "The Mohammedans think much of the new moon. Let us also, with the new moon, begin a new life!" And he blessed his daughter with a great blessing so that she, thinking that her old relationship was broken, nor dreaming that a new and deeper life was being given to it, knew only that the hour was strange and passing sweet. . . ."
