“Take up one idea. Make that one idea
your life - think of it, dream of it; live on that idea. Let the brain,
muscles, nerves, every part of your body, be full of that idea, and just leave
every other idea alone. This is the way to success - that is the way great
spiritual giants are produced." – Swami Vivekananda.
I attended a seminar on Swami
Vivekananda organized by Vivekananda Institute of Human Excellence as I am
follower of Swami Vivekananda. I read his books 25 years ago and acquired lots
of knowledge and share it with my students regularly. I attended the seminar to
find out the latest developments and how Swami Vivekananda’s messages are
spread across the country.
Swami Vivekananda needs no
introduction as every Indian knows him and most of the Indian youth follow into
his footsteps. He was the proud son of
India who awakened great interest on India and Indians at Chicago Conference. He conquered America without any bullet.
Swami Vivekananda believed in
character building among Indian youth. He preached Indians to be original and implored
to enhance their concentration to achieve great success. He emphasized not only
on good Indians but also on strong Indians who can preserve Indian civilization
and values forever.
Currently Indian youth are flooded
with western culture and technology and it is time for them to change their
mindset. It is unfortunate that they believe more in ‘cell-confidence’ rather
than ‘self-confidence’. They must
emphasize on inspiration, intuition and innovation to grow India as a strong
nation. They must respect and love our culture and at the same time they must
take the best from western culture as all cultures have unique advantages to
understand and apply.
As you love your mother you must love
your motherland. As you love your own brothers and sisters you must love all
Indian citizens as brothers and sisters. It is time for Indian youth to take up
the challenge and lead from the front to make an economically vibrant India.
Future of India is in your hands.
Swami Vivekananda dedicated his entire life for religious toleration and
universal brotherhood. He emphasized values among Indian youth and as a result,
he is remembered forever as a youth leader. He is a legend who lived beyond his
times and continues to live forever in the history of India. India celebrates
his birth anniversary as a Youth Day. Therefore, the present youth must understand
his ideas and ideals, and principles and philosophies to create a vibrant and
great India.
Remember, when you awaken youth you
awaken India. Therefore, all stakeholders including educators, parents, elders
and NGOs must guide youth in a right direction to become good and strong
citizens and leaders so that they can lead this nation with confidence.
“A few heart-whole, sincere, and
energetic men and women can do more in a year than a mob in a century.” – Swami
Vivekananda
Life is great!
