RELEVANCE OF SWAMI VIVEKANANDA’S CONCEPT OF NATION BUILDING

Abstract

The world has witnessed many marvels of science and technology over the last two centuries.
The West, by dint of concentrated study of the external world has been inaugurating new vistas
of inventions. As a result, there has been a rapid change in other fields too. Especially the rapid
changes in the economic and commercial fields resulted in the rise of corporate culture and
globalization. This situation calls for a new culture which is acceptable and applicable to
humanity across the world. The spiritual masters have been addressing the world to strike a
balance between the material and spiritual achievements.
