Udupi, 14 Jan 2013: Swami Vivekanand is a great visionary that the world had ever seen.  He was a practical person and never dwelled in illusions.  He had greater trust in youth.  He dreamt of free-India that would become a super power in the nearest future.  He had travelled across the country and neighbouring country Sri Lanka and set the foundation of stronger nation by inspiring youth.  His teachings are ever relevant and helpful for youth to develop good cultural upbringing, said Professor Kokkarne Surendranat Shetty.

 

 

Professor Shetty was speaking at 150th birth anniversary celebration of Swami Vivekananda held at St Mary’s College campus, Shirva, near here on Saturday January 12.
