That Historic Moment, in Chicago
September 11 1893 is an important day in history. When Swami Vivekananda went to the 'Parliament of the Worlds Religions in Chicago, USA he did not have any organization supporting him or a grand introduction.. He had one thing. A lot of self-confidence.
When he stood on the stage. Said "Brothers and sisters of America" the whole room applauded for two minutes. This was not just because of his words. Because of his personality and his strong belief in what is right. From that stage he taught the world that Hinduism is not about rituals but about accepting everyone.
The Philosophy of Self-Confidence
Swami Vivekananda said that a true non-believer is not someone who does not believe in God but someone who does not believe in themselves. The main ideas of his life are still inspiring people today:
Get up wake up and do not stop until you reach your goal: this is not just a saying but a call to action.
Do not be afraid: he taught that fear is what makes us fail. If you think you are weak you will be your worst enemy.
Focus on one thing: he said "make one idea your life. Think of it dream of it".
An Inspiration to the Youth
Today when we often give up when things get tough Swami Vivekanandas life reminds us that obstacles are a part of life. When he went back to India he told the people that the country needed people who are strong and brave. He wanted them to stop thinking they are not good enough and to walk with pride.
In his life of 39 years Swami Vivekananda did great things that people will remember for a long time. He showed the world that self-confidence is the key, to success.
Swami Vivekananda said "you are what you think". If you think you are weak you will be weak. If you think you can do something you will be able to do it.
Today his words teach us that to change the world we need to change ourselves and believe in ourselves.
