    SWAMI VIVEKANANDA’S SPEECH AT WORLD PARLIAMENT OF RELIGION, CHICAGO RESPONSE TO WELCOME Sisters and Brothers of America, It fills my heart with joy unspeakable to rise in response to the warm and cordial welcome which you have given us. I thank you in the name of the most ancient order of monks in the world; I thank you in the name of the mother of religions; and I thank you in the name of millions and millions of Hindu people of all classes and sects. My thanks, also, to some of the speakers on this platform who, referring to the delegates from the Orient, have told you that these men from far-off nations may well claim the honour of bearing to different lands the idea of toleration. I am proud to belong to a religion which has taught the world both tolerance and universal acceptance. We believe not only in universal toleration, but we accept all religions as true. I am proud to belong to a nation which has sheltered the persecuted and the refugees of all religions and all nations of the earth. I am proud to tell you that we have gathered in our bosom the purest remnant of the Israelites, who came to Southern India and took refuge with us in the very year in which their holy temple was shattered to pieces by Roman tyranny. I am proud to belong to the religion which has sheltered and is still fostering remnant Zoroastrian nation. I will quote to you, brethren, a few lines from a hymn which I remember to have repeated from my earliest boyhood, which is every day repeated by millions of human beings: "As the different streams having their

  • Swamiji's Vision on Regeneration of Rural India
    Regeneration of Rural India and the Activities of Ramakrishna Mission Swami Bhaveshananda Ramakrishna Mission Vivekananda University, Belur Math The real nation who lives in cottage have forgotten their manhood, their individuality. Swamiji 2 India in Villages • "The soul of India lives in its villages", declared M. K. Gandhi • The villages are the soul of India and cities are the centre of power-- Rabindranath Tagore • According to the 2011 census of India, 68.84% of Indians (around 833.1 million people) live in 640,867 different villages. 3 Rural India • The development of India cannot be thought of without the development of about 84 crores rural people. • We may assume, rural India as the second largest country of the world. • If we can develop this India, automatically, whole India will be developed. 4 “So long as the millions live in hunger and ignorance, I hold every man a traitor who, having been educated at their expense, pays not the least heed to them!” Swamiji 5 Swami Vivekanada was the first Indian who realised and propagated the importance of mass education and mass awareness. Famous Historian Ramesh Ch Majumdar 6 • Why Regeneration? 7 Glorious Ancient India • Swamiji was having proud respect for rich glorious past of India. • India was so rich in resources and our society was so rich in different fields of knowledge that people from different countries used to come India for business purpose and acquiring knowledge from pre-historic period. 8 Glorious Ancient India • Dhanwantari , the Pioneer of surgory of c.1000 BC, Ayurvedic expert like Charak of c 200BC, Physician Surgeon Bagbhatta of c.600 BC, Pediatrician & Gyneobstrecian like Kashyap in c200 BC, Nurologist Jivak in c.600 BC, Nagarjuna, a medical alchemist & metallurgist of c.800 BC and many other contributed not only to Indian civilisation but to the civilisation of whole world.

  • Aspects of Indian Modernity: a Personal Perspective
    ASPECTS OF INDIAN MODERNITY: A PERSONAL PERSPECTIVE MOHAN RAMANAN University of Hyderabad, India [email protected] 75 I There are two Indias. One is called Bharat, after a legendary King. This represents a traditional culture strongly rooted in religion. The other is India, the creation of a modern set of circumstances. It has to do with British rule and the modernities set in motion by that phenomenon. India as a nation is very much a creation of the encounter between an ancient people and a western discourse. The British unified the geographical space we call India in a manner never done before. Only Asoka the Great and Akbar the Great had brought large parts of the Indian sub- continent under their control, but their empires were not as potent or as organized as the British Empire. The British gave India communications, railways, the telegraph and telephones; they organized their knowledge of India systematically by surveying the landscape, categorizing the flora and fauna and by dividing the population into castes and religious groupings. Edward Said has shown in his well- known general studies of the colonial enterprise how this accumulation of knowledge is a way of establishing power. In India the British engaged themselves in this knowledge accumulation to give themselves an Empire and a free market and a site to work their experiments in social engineering. This command of the land also translated into command of the languages of the people. British scholars like G.U. Pope and C.P. Brown, to name only two, miscelánea: a journal of english and american studies 34 (2006): pp.

  • The Neo-Vedanta Philosophy of Swami Vivekananda
    VEDA’S JOURNAL OF ENGLISH LANGUAGE AND LITERATURE (JOELL) Vol.6 Issue 4 An International Peer Reviewed (Refereed) Journal 2019 Impact Factor (SJIF) 4.092 http://www.joell.in RESEARCH ARTICLE THE NEO-VEDANTA PHILOSOPHY OF SWAMI VIVEKANANDA Tania Baloria (Ph.D Research Scholar, Jaipur National University, Jagatpura, Jaipur.) doi: https://doi.org/10.33329/joell.64.19.108 ABSTRACT This paper aims to evaluate the interpretation of Swami Vivekananda‘s Neo-Vedanta philosophy.Vedanta is the philosophy of Vedas, those Indian scriptures which are the most ancient religious writings now known to the world. It is the philosophy of the self. And the self is unchangeable. It cannot be called old self and new self because it is changeless and ultimate. So the theory is also changeless. Neo- Vedanta is just like the traditional Vedanta interpreted with the perspective of modern man and applied in practical-life. By the Neo-Vedanta of Swami Vivekananda is meant the New-Vedanta as distinguished from the old traditional Vedanta developed by Sankaracharya (c.788 820AD). Neo-Vedantism is a re- establishment and reinterpretation Of the Advaita Vedanta of Sankara with modern arguments, in modern language, suited to modern man, adjusting it with all the modern challenges. In the later nineteenth century and early twentieth century many masters used Vedanta philosophy for human welfare. Some of them were Rajarammohan Roy, Swami DayanandaSaraswati, Sri CattampiSwamikal, Sri Narayana Guru, Rabindranath Tagore, Mahatma Gandhi, Sri Aurobindo, and Ramana Maharsi.

    Vivekananda Shila Smarak Ek Bharat Vijayi Bharat Vivekananda Kendra Gratefully Remembers and Invites the Hundreds and Thousands Who or Whose Families Had Contributed to the Building of The Grand Vivekananda Rock Memorial at Kanyakumari in 1970 To Celebrate the 50th Year of the Memorial [1970-2020] And Renew the Association Swami Vivekananda on the last bit of Indian Rock “Sitting on the last bit of Indian rock—I hit upon a plan: Suppose some disinterested sannyasins, bent on doing good to others, go from village to village, disseminating education and seeking in various ways to better the condition of all, down to the last person—can’t that bring forth good in time?” “We, as a nation, have lost our individuality, and that is the cause of all mischief in India. 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.

  • Phenomenological Materiality in Introspection, with a Reference to Advaita Vedanta
    Open Theology 2017; 3: 257–273 Phenomenology of Religious Experience Open Access Olga Louchakova-Schwartz* Qualia of God: Phenomenological Materiality in Introspection, with a Reference to Advaita Vedanta DOI 10.1515/opth-2017-0021 Received March 14, 2017; accepted April 26, 2017 Abstract: Applying Michel Henry’s philosophical framework to the phenomenological analysis of religious experience, the author introduces a concept of material introspection and a new theory of the constitution of religious experience in phenomenologically material interiority. As opposed to ordinary mental self-scrutiny, material introspection happens when the usual outgoing attention is reverted onto embodied self-awareness in search of mystical self-knowledge or union with God. Such reversal posits the internal field of consciousness with the self-disclosure of phenomenological materiality. As shown by the example of Vedantic self-inquiry, material introspection is conditioned on the attitude ‘I “see” myself’ and employs reductions which relieve phenomenological materiality from the structuring influence of intentionality; the telos of material introspection is expressed by the inward self-transcendence of intentional consciousness into purified phenomenological materiality. Experience in material introspection is constituted by the self-affection and self-luminosity of phenomenological materiality; experience is recognized as religious due to such essential properties as the capacity of being self- fulfilled, and specific qualitative “what it’s like”(s).

    2 Message from Pujya Sri Swamiji 2020 2 Message from Pujya Sri Swamiji 2020 Swami Dayananda Saraswati 1930-2015 “Accommodation is a beautiful and saintly quality. Among all the qualities, ahiṁsā and kṣamā constitute the qualities of a saint. The minimum qualifications for a saint are these two qualities. One need not have wisdom, one need not have scriptural learning to be a saint, but one must have these two values. A saint is a person who never consciously hurts another person by action, word, or thought, and who accepts people – good or bad – just as they are. A saint is he who has an endless capacity to be accommodative, forgiving, and merciful.” -Pujya Sri Swami Dayananda Arsha Vidya Pitham Programs 3 & Special Events 2020 AVG Events Calendar ......................................................................................................... 0 Spring Vedānta Programs ................................................................................................... 0 Summer Vedānta Programs ................................................................................................ 0 Children’s Programs ............................................................................................................ 0 Fall Vedānta Programs ........................................................................................................ 0 Special Vedānta Programs .................................................................................................. 0 Vedānta Teaching Centers .................................................................................................
