Swami Vivekananda was born on 12 January 1863 in a Kayastha family in Calcutta. His childhood name was Narendranath Dutt. Father Vishwanath Dutt was a noted lawyer of the Calcutta High Court. Mata Bhuvaneshwari Devi was a woman of very simple and religious views.Vivekananda was intelligent from childhood. Due to the religious and spiritual atmosphere of the family, the rites of religion and spirituality deepened in the child's mind from childhood. Due to the rites of parents, there was a desire in the child's mind to know and receive God from his childhood.At the age of 25, Narendra started wearing Gerua clothes and went on a world tour. Representing Sanatan Dharma on behalf of India at the World Religion General Assembly held in 1893, he enchanted thousands of people present there with his 20-minute lecture. Impressed by the lecture, many people present there became his disciples. The situation became such that when there was noise in the assembly, they were pacified by assuring them to listen to Swami ji's speech. In his speech, Swamiji proved that Hinduism has the ability to integrate all religions.Swami ji's pithy lectures are famous all over the world today. In the last moments of his life, he explained Shukla Yajurveda and said - want one more Vivekananda, to understand what this Vivekananda has done so far.On July 4, 1902, Swamiji's supernatural body merged with the divine in meditation. He was cremated on the pyre of sandalwood along the Ganges in Belur. The followers built a temple there in his memory and established more than 130 centers to spread the message of Swamiji and his Guru Swami Ramakrishna Paramahamsa all over the world.Swami ji's ideal-human service is the service of God
