Celebration  of National youth day on 12th January (birthday of Vivekananda)

We are celebrating National youth day on the birth day of swami Vivekananda  because of the following reasons:

As we all already know that the swami Vivekananda was born and grown up in a religious family. So, he had studied many religious text and gain too  many knowledge. Then his knowledge leded a question in his mind about the existence of God. That's Is God exists in real life or not? For that he believed in agnosticism. He joined with Keenan Chandra arm's Nava vidhan in 1880.Became a member of Sadharan brahmo samaj led by Leah's Chandra sent and Devendranath Tagore



There were lots of question running in the mind of Vivekananda and he wanted the answer of these questions for the relaxation of his mind. Then he heard about the shri Ramakrishna paramhansha by William Hattie the principal of Scottish church. Then he asked to William Hattie about the address of Ramakrishna paramhansha for a meeting. Hattie replied  him to met with Ramakrishna at dakshineshwari Mandir. So swami Vivekananda met with Ramakrishna paramhansha at dakshineshwariandir Kali Mandir and asked him a question that  "Have you ever seen God" which he already asked to many spiritual leader but he never satisfied with their answers. After asking the question Ramkrishna paramhansha replied in such a simple way that"Yes, I have. I can see as clearly as I can see you"but in a depth sence. After he was getting the answer of this question he started visit the Dakshineshwari Kali Mandir and got the answer of many others such question.

Understanding yourself  a weak person is a great guilt. 
                         -swami Vivekananda 


After the death of Vivekananda's father

The time came when Vivekananda's father(vishwanath Dutta) died who was the only income source for their family. Therefor the responsibility of whole family were came on the solder of Vivekananda. So his family facing a financial problems.
He didn't know what to do next. Then he decided to go to Ramakrishna paramhansha for requesting him to prey Maa Kali for the financial support of Vivekananda. Then Vivekananda arrived to Dakshineshwari Kali Mandir and requested to Ramakrishna for pray to kali for Vivekananda. But he said that "I can't pray to Kali for these things like money. If you want, you can. Then Vivekananda prey to Kali for wisdom and revision. And got spiritual awak from Ramakrishna paramhansha. From that day he was started the life of ascetic and make Ramakrishna paramhansha as his Guru.


You have to grow from the inside out. None can teach you, none can make you spiritual. There is no other teacher but your own soul. 
                     -swami Vivekananda
