Remembering Swami Vivekananda
An important lesson on how to banish misery
This year, we celebrate the 150th birth anniversary (12th January) of one of the greatest Indians of all time—Swami Vivekananda. There is so much one can learn from the life of Swamiji. If one has to understand the full implications of his teachings, it is imperative to read the Complete Works of Swami Vivekananda that run into several volumes—a huge task. This article is an attempt to pay a tribute to Swamiji, by delineating some of the subjects close to his heart. One subject that holds great relevance even today is: Why does man feel miserable?
In chapter III Part I of the Complete Works, under the heading “The Secret of Work”, Swamiji states, “Helping others physically, by removing their physical needs, is indeed great, but the help is great according as the need is greater and according as the help is far reaching. If a man’s wants can be removed for an hour, it is helping him indeed; if his wants can be removed for a year, it will be more help to him; but if his wants can be removed for ever, it is surely the greatest help that can be given (to) him.” For more visit: Moneylife.in
