Humanism from the Perspective of Swami Vivekananda: A Philosophical Analysis Joydev Hazra, Research Scholar, Department of Philosophy, Kazi Nazrul University, Asansol, India | ||
ABSTRACT | ||
This research article explores the comprehensive nature of Humanism in Vivekananda’s philosophy. The study highlights that to him, religion is not mere ritualism but the manifestation of divinity through the service of humanity. The discussion is primarily divided into three segments: 1. A shift from the idea of ‘helping’ to ‘serving’ others, viewing every individual as a manifestation of the Divine (Nara-Narayana). 2. An analysis of his three-fold model of service—physical (feeding the hungry), intellectual (spreading education), and spiritual (awakening the inherent soul-power). 3. Vivekananda’s vision of social progress through female education, asserting that a nation’s greatness is measured by its treatment of women. In conclusion, the paper argues that Vivekananda’s humanistic philosophy transcends geographical and religious boundaries, offering a universal solution to the crises of the modern world by fostering empathy, equality, and global brotherhood. | ||
