| | Swami Vivekananda |
 | | Swami Vivekananda experienced neo-vedantic culture and evolutionary vision in the wonderful life of Sri Ramakrishna, and he maintained that that was the essential pre-requisite for future survival of civilization. | | | Swami Vivekananda was convinced that the blot of apartheid, caste and racial prejudice, exploitation based on privileges, and slave mentality would vanish from the face of the earth if the teachings of Sri Ramakrishna are put in practice. | | | She taught Narendra--later to be known as Swami Vivekananda--the true meaning of Hindu Religion. |

| | Swami Vivekananda and the Ramakrishna movement |
| | Vivekananda demonstrated India as a tolerant society, which allows different sects to live together under one roof of Hinduism and as a society, which also accepted in it people of other religions. | | | The Ramakrishna movement was established by Swami Vivekananda, who was a disciple of a Hindu saint Ramakrishna. | | | For example Vivekananda preached that the path to realize God was not only worshipping idols in spiritual way but also through intellectual and physical action. |

| | Ali Ihsan Yitik: Swami Vivekananda's Idea of Religious Diversity and Harmony |
| | According to Vivekananda, this fact is the main basis of all the religions of the world. | | | Swami Vivekananda also, by following his teacher's advice, believes that the diversity of religions is created by God himself. | | | We can easily see that Sri Ramakrishna and his disciple Swami Vivekananda were not only good exemplars of this pluralism for us, but also have done a great service by accepting different religions as different paths leading to the same goal. |

| | Like all other great teachers of religion, Swami Vivekananda has a special interest in man’s spiritual life, which leads to the highest Goal; yet he has included in his plan of human regeneration the seekers of the temporal values as well as the seekers of the supreme Good. | | | An insightful comparison of Vivekananda, Buddha, and Shankara, and a classified survey of Vivekananda’s teachings are included. | | | In his scheme of life there is no inherent conflict between faith and reason, between science and religion, between poetry and philosophy, between action and meditation, between social and monastic ideals. |

| | It is interesting to note that many of the early questions regarding caste which Swami Vivekananda first raised in his letter to Pramadadas Mitra in 1889 are answered by Swamiji himself in his final letter to the scholar and longtime friend, written in 1897. | | | Swami Vivekananda once remarked to a disciple in San Francisco, "You know, I may have to be born again. | | | Though he sometimes blamed religion for the modern caste structure, Swamiji's mature opinion seems to have been that religion was not to blame and that the earliest references to caste in the Hindu scriptures do not contain the notion of hereditary caste. |
