5 Minute Speech On Swami Vivekananda

Speech On Swami Vivekananda: Spiritual scriptures like Vedas, Upanishads and Bhagavad Gita have the power to influence people which nothing else has. This is what made Swami Vivekananda travel all four directions to spread the teachings of these scriptures.

Swami Vivekananda was one of India’s leading philosophers who rediscovered Indian philosophy through ancient Hindu scriptures and carried them to each corner of the world. He was such a great personality and had higher thinking but lived a simple life. The more we describe his greatness the less it will be.

Most Reputable teachers and principle and loved friends. first of all, I want to wish you all the best wishes for the day. Also, I am very grateful for having a chance to deliver a speech on “Swami Vivekananda”.

“Greatness lies in simplicity”. This is what you learn after knowing about such a great personality like Swami Vivekananda. He has no comparison at all. In a life span of only 39 years, Swami Vivekananda spread the message of India’s spiritual heritage across the world.

His best-known presence in the West is his speech at the World Religion Conference in Chicago in 1893. This speech made everyone emotional when he opened his speech by addressing the people as his sisters and brothers. Swami Vivekananda was a spiritual leader, philosopher and social reformist of the 18th century.

Swami Vivekananda was born on 12th January 1863 in Calcutta. His childhood name was Narendranath Datta. His father Vishwanath Datta was an attorney at Calcutta high court. His mother, Bhubaneswari Devi, was a devout housewife. His mother believed in God which influenced Narendra to be inspired towards spirituality.

Swami Vivekananda had a curious nature from his infancy. He used to believe in facts that were backed by sensible reason. This mindset made him even question the existence of God. He met many saints to seek an answer to this question.

His search ends up when he met his guru Ramakrishna Paramahansa who brought him from darkness to light. His guru taught him how to meditate and answered him God lives within every human being. So, if we serve mankind, then we can serve God. After getting an answer to this question, he turned into a monk.

The teaching of his guru and Hinduism influenced him to an extent that he travelled all four directions to spread these teachings. When he returned to India he observed the condition of poor and downtrodden people making him sensitive.

He established the “Ramakrishna Mission” which provides spiritual training and service to the poor and economically weaker section. His spiritual training centres are spread all over the world. He also established “Ramakrishna Math” & “Belur Math”.

Whatever he did or said was an exceptional act. He inspires not only Indians but also the world. He wrote a lot of books including Raj yoga, Jnana yoga, Bhakti yoga, karma yoga etc. We can learn a lot from his books.

To sum it up, Swami Vivekananda was one of India’s leading philosophers who rediscovered Indian philosophy through ancient Hindu scriptures and carried them to each corner of the world. Swamiji breathed his last at Belur Math, West Bengal on the 4th of July, 1902. According to his disciples, Vivekananda attained mahasamādhi.
