The life and teachings of Swami Vivekananda have inspired millions of people across the world.
In 1985, the Government of India declared Swami Vivekananda’s birthday – 12 January – as the National Youth Day in honor of the great philosopher and monk. Since 1985, this day is celebrated all over India as National Youth Day.
As we celebrate National Youth Day on the birth anniversary of Swami Vivekananda today, let us remember him and his teachings that changed our lives for good:
Swami Vivekananda was born Narendranath Dutta on January 12, 1863 in Kolkata, West Bengal. His inclination was always towards spirituality. He practiced meditation from a very young age and also joined the Brahmo Samaj movement for a certain period. One of the greatest patriots, he is also credited with introducing the Indian philosophy of Vedanta and Yoga to the Western world.
Although he was devastated by the demise of his father, Sri Ramakrishna, he embarked on a long journey to explore and discover every part of India.
A true karma yogi, he had full faith in the youth of this country. He firmly believed that youth could change the destiny of India through their hard work, dedication and spiritual strength.
His message to the youth was, “What I want are the muscles of iron and the nerves of steel, inside which resides the brain of the same material that makes up the thunderbolt.” Through such messages, he wished to instill basic values in the youth.
confident personality
He always inspired the youth to have a confident attitude. The reason behind this – People are always afraid of the challenges presented by life when they do not believe in themselves.
optimistic attitude
Swami Vivekananda believed that whatever makes us weak spiritually, physically or mentally, it should be rejected like poison. Weak thoughts should be replaced with optimism with the help of yoga and meditation.
