“Pleasure is not a goal of mankind.
The goal of mankind is knowledge and wisdom.”Swami Vivekananda
This spiritual post is about someone so special that he is called “Prince among men, a man in a million”, who is revered in a way no one else is in today’s India. His influence in his days was so profound that those who met him were instantly captivated by his magnetic and complex personality, his vast knowledge of virtually anything and everything, his wisdom, his ability to speak on any subject without preparation and anywhere, and his legendary, unique memory. He was one of the greatest thinkers of all time, and to get the right perspective and to be able to write about him, I studied all 8 volumes of his work and was greatly impressed by his ideas, his thoughts, and his passionate beliefs. I have already dedicated three lengthy posts to Swamiji’s life and works; today I would like to write more about his philosophy. His legacy will live on because being as familiar with science and logic as with Advaita’s philosophy, he was able to reconnect arguments on both sides. He is recognised in India as one of its greatest sons who virtually conquered the two western continents with his Vedanta movement. There are monuments devoted to his memory in India as well as in other countries, as well as stamps.
