Following a Swami, even Vivekananda, can mean a lot of things that don't
necessarily translate into Glass family fiction...I don't think Salinger
had a mission to get the good Swami's word out (perhaps though it was the
Swami's mission to get the word in?) so much as become a Yogi in his own
way...and I still subscribe to that having less to do with his writing
(published) than we're guessing...Salinger's sense of spirtuality is
strong in his writing, but his religious allusions, though direct, do not
strike me as abundant.
