Welcome to the Directory

An all-inclusive compilation, recording the impact of the works of the great Spiritual Masters from India who, in the wake of Swami Vivekananda’s historic visit to the West, spread the Spiritual Heritage of India worldwide.

But One Ideal: "DHARMA" &  One Mission: "SEVA"

Benediction

Swami Vivekananda once stated: “That I went to America was not my doing or your doing; but the God of India who is guiding her destiny sent me, and will send hundreds of such to all the nations of the world. No power on earth can resist it. You must go out and preach it to every nation under the sun, and preach your religion, preach it to every people.” It was in fulfilment of this great exhortation that the Vedanta Movement and other spiritual movements came into existence in the West and in several other countries. I am glad to know that Swami Jyotirmayananda....

Preface by the CONVENER

By P. Parameswaran,

President, Vivekananda Kendra, Kanyakumari, Convener.

At the very outset, we felt that we should seek the guidance of a small, informal committee, to write to all spiritual organisations originating in Bharat or outside, which are expounding and spreading the Indian spiritual world view exemplified by Swami Vivekananda, appealing to them to co-operate in this huge and critical task which is necessary in the larger interest of rising India’s global spiritual and geo-cultural mission. Hence we communicated with some of the institutions of light and leading, seeking their guidance and co-operation. ( Read More )

When an idea exclusively occupies the mind, it is transformed into an actual physical or mental state.

Thought of the day

India’s gift to the world is the light spiritual…The whole world requires light. It is expectant! India alone has the light of the highest spiritual truth… The mission given to us is to conserve, to preserve, to accumulate as it were into a dynamo, all the spiritual energy of the race and that concentrated energy is to pour forth in a deluge on the world whenever circumstances are propitious…

- Swami Vivekananda.
