Women must be put in a position to solve their own problems in their own way. And the Indian women are as capable of doing it as any in the world.
Swami Vivekananda Said : “ My faith is in the younger generation, the modern generation; out of them will come my workers. They will work out the whole problem, like lion.”.
"An aggregate or a congregation of men does not make a nation, nor do the geographical area and duration of time qualify a society to be known as a nation. A government formed on such a basis can be called a state, but not a nation. It is common goal or mission that makes a nation. All the constituents strive collectively for something noble. Service with spiritual orientation results in man-making which invariably and inseparably connected with nation building." It is the core of all the thoughts behind Vivekananda Kendra.
In Orissa, Vivkeananda Kendra has branch centers in Baleswar, Bhubaneshwar, Baripada, Keonjhar and Brahmapur.
