Swami Vivekananda: An Inspiration to the Modern Youth

He once had said "To all women every man save her husband should be as her son. To all men every woman save his own wife should be as his mother. When I look about me and see what you call gallantry, my soul is filled with disgust. Not until you learn to ignore the question of sex and to meet on a ground of common humanity will your women really develop. Until then they are playthings, nothing more.”

The right direction to guide the youth from straying

In recent times the increasing crime rate by the juveniles in the country has alarmed the nation. It was noted that in 2011, around 34,000 criminals held were juvenile, which is a 10 percent jump from 2010.

The Government of India was quoted saying “it was felt that the philosophy of Swamiji and the ideals for which he lived and worked could be a great source of inspiration for the Indian Youth.”

Swami Vivekananda was a youth saint and is an example to the world with the teachings he shared. The youth can know and learn about his ideals, life and achievements.
