SWAMI VIVEKANANDA - A GREATEST GURU



On a holy day like GURUPURNIMA, what can be better pick by chachu than SWAMI VIVEKANANDA.

Swami Vivekananda (12 January 1863 – 4 July 1902), born Narendra Nath Datta, was an Indian Hindu monk and chief disciple of the 19th-century saint Ramakrishna. He was a key figure in the introduction of the Indian philosophies of Vedanta and Yoga to the Western worldand is credited with raising interfaith awareness, bringing Hinduism to the status of a major world religion during the late 19th century. He was a major force in the revival of Hinduism in India, and contributed to the concept of nationalism in colonial India. Vivekananda founded the Ramakrishna Math and the Ramakrishna Mission. He is perhaps best known for his speech which began, "Sisters and brothers of America . in which he introduced Hinduism at the Parliament of the World's Religions in Chicago in 1893.




Where can we go to find God if we cannot see Him in our own hearts and in every living being.

BY the study of different religions we find that in essence they are one. 
Like me or Hate me,
both are in my favor,
If you like me I am in your Heart,
If you hate me I am in your mind. 
Where can we go to find God if we cannot see Him in our own hearts and in every living being.
