Swami Vivekananda (1863–1902) was a great Indian Hindu monk, philosopher, and spiritual leader who played a key role in introducing Indian philosophies of Vedanta and Yoga to the Western world. Born as Narendranath Datta in Kolkata, he was a bright and inquisitive child. He became a disciple of Sri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa, who transformed his spiritual outlook and inspired him to serve humanity.

He founded the Ramakrishna Mission and Ramakrishna Math, organizations dedicated to social service, education, and spiritual growth. Though he passed away at the young age of 39, his teachings continue to inspire millions across the world.
