Disciple of Ramakrishna Vivekananda; one of the founders of the Ramakrishna order. He taught Vedantic philosophy in Europe, America, and India. (Glossary for the Vahinis)

Vivekananda has come again; he is growing up in Ceylon; he will come to Me and join in My task... The man who wrote the first English biography of Vivekananda was born last night in a thatched hut on the seashore on the West Coast at Kuttipuram. It is a charming baby, with bright big eyes. (SSSm Vol.2, p. 130)

Narendra (Swami Vivekananda) tried his best to control his thoughts, when he was a youth. When he finally succeeded, he acquired a pure heart. He constantly reminded himself, ‘I am very proud of my birth as Bharatiya. How great and sacred is this country Bharat! How pure it is! ‘To whichever country he travelled, he used to teach the people of that country about the greatness of Bharat. The very thought of the sacredness of Bharat would make you great. Hence, you must constantly remind yourself of the greatness of Bharat. The students of the present time are not all reading the life history of the great people like Ramakrishn Paramahamsa and Swami Vivekananda. They read all trash novels. They consider them as great literature. I want that you should throw away such cheap literature. (SSS Vol.39, p.22)
