  • arise awake and stop not till the goal is reached
    such a shining persona he had
    if we cud ever get close to even a percent of his thought process..
  • everyone has vivekananda inside himself/herself,we need to realise and awaken our vivekananda. B)
  • “There is no chance for the welfare of the world unless the condition of woman is improved. It is not possible for a bird to fly on only one wing.
    There is no hope for that family or country where there is no estimation of women, where they live in sadness. For this reason, they have to be raised first.” – Swamy Vivekanada

    Used it my essay. B)
    Ty and HBD :)
  • Swamiji contributed to the growth of nascent nationalism in India.
    He believed that in service of people is the service of divine. Also one strand of his thought abhorred individualism and supported communitarian ethos.

    Best way to celebrate Swamiji is to contribute to nation-building by tirelessly and selflessly working towards national progress in all spheres. And to shun egoism and hedonistic individualism in dealings with fellow Indians.

    Jai Hind. Jai Bhaarat.
    Ek Bhaarat. Akhand Bhaarat. Shresth Bhaarat.
  • If money help a man to do good to others, it is of some value; but if not, it is simply a mass of evil, and the sooner it is got rid of, the better.

    I tried reading many books on him but couldnt understand why is he so overhyped. Only thing I like is visit to Sri Ramakrishna ashram and meditate. Except few quotes I dont like much about him. Can someone try to explain why youth of today adore him so much? Or is this hypocrisy? Yeah few quotes are good but anyone can nake them. I see his follower and non follower sharing same values most of the time. Is praising Vivekananda symbol of new 'cool' today?

  • Someone made a documentary on Swami Vivekananda:




    It's quite good but one needs to have patience.
