But for that the leading persons – the elite in the country should be confident of the purpose of India and her Sanatana Dharma, which unfortunately is not the case. Mananeeya Eknathji named the celebration of 11 September – the day Swami Vivekananda spoke first in the Parliament of Religions - as Universal Brotherhood Day. Why did he do so? Eknathji started Vivekananda Kendra as a thought movement. The work of Vedanta: The Vivekananda Kendra should add to the efforts of correcting the thinking of the basis of Universal Macaulayites in our society as they are in Brotherhood the forefront and also dominate the intellectual space in our country.

We have to give back to the nation its lost individuality and raise the masses.” (In a letter written to Swami Ramakrishnananda on 19 March 1894) Swami Vivekananda’s mission for rejuvenation of Bharat began with the plan he had hit upon when he sat on “the last bit of Indian rock”. Now, thanks to the invaluable contribution from all of you, a beautiful memorial - to recall Swami Vivekananda beginning his mission for India - now stands on that last bit of rock. The Memorial, built by a truly national effort put together by the monumental work of Sri Eknath Ranade; the man behind the mighty work, was dedicated to the nation in September 1970. 3 As Swami Vivekananda had his inspiration from the rock, Eknath Ranade took inspiration from the memorial built on the rock to found the Vivekananda Kendra which has now grown into a mighty spiritually oriented service mission manned by thousands of karyakartas.

  • Address by the Hon'ble President of India Shri Ram
    ADDRESS BY THE HON’BLE PRESIDENT OF INDIA SHRI RAM NATH KOVIND AT THE VIVEKANANDA KENDRA Kanyakumari, December 25/26, 2019 1. My greetings to all of you! I feel blessed here, as coming to the Vivekananda Rock Memorial and the Vivekanand Kendra is a very special pilgrimage indeed. We have gathered at a place which continuously emits to us highly positive vibes. The Vivekananda Rock Memorial and the Kendra are among those few spots which are naturally endowed with an ambience of extraordinary serenity. They bring the unquiet mind to rest and lead it to ponder perennial questions. 2. It was this spiritual power of the rock at the very feet of Bharat Mata which drew Swami Vivekananda to Kanyakumari in his quest for inner peace. On this day 127 years ago, in 1892, Swamiji began deep meditation on this sacred spot. In three days and three nights, a simple monk transformed himself into an enlightened being and a global messenger of Bharatiya Sanskriti. Swamiji attained enlightenment here and sparked a unique spiritual revolution. It was not for an individual‟s own salvation; it was for the rejuvenation of the spiritual values of the motherland and service of its people. More recently I have gone through the wonderful experience of watching a play on the life of Swami Vivekanand at Parliament and was mesmerised by his evolution as a “realised soul”. 3. In this context, let me recall a letter written by him on 19th March, 1894 in which Swamiji wrote about his plans. He envisioned selfless sannyasins going from village to village, educating people and working to improve their condition.

He came to Kanyakumari and sat on the mid-sea rock, meditating on India’s past, present and the future. It was on this rock that he discovered the mission for glorious India and later shook the world by Vedanta Philosophy and all-inclusive spiritual ideas. On this sanctified rock, late Mananeeya Eknathji Ranade, with the participation of millions of people of India, constructed Vivekananda Rock Memorial, which symbolizes the glorious mission, as seen by Swami Vivekananda in his meditation, to restore Bharat Mata on the throne of ‘Jagatguru’. Vivekananda Rock Memorial was inaugurated in 1970 and has since become a point of National Convergence. Over the years, this concrete symbol of inspiration has drawn millions of pilgrims and provided them inspiration to serve the society. Service Mission As the Vivekananda Rock Memorial was taking shape, Mananeeya Shri Eknathji Ranade also envisaged a mission that would manifest the idea of Man-making and Nation-building.
