Dear and Respected Divine Souls,
Namaste. At the outset I offer my humble pranams at the Lotus Feet of Sri Ramakrishna Deva, Holy
Mother Sharada Devi and Swami Vivekananda along with my prayers for the welfare of you all. May them
illumine the hearts of you all and fill them with Divine Love, Eternal Peace and Everlasting Joy. Please
accept my heartfelt love and best wishes to you and your family.
The Triple Institutions of Bailur Math, viz., - Sri Ramakrishna Ashrama (the Men Monastic wing),
Sharada Foundation (the Women Monastic wing) and Sri Ramakrishna Sharada Ashrama (the Missionary
and Service wing) were established around the year 2004 by a group of renunciates and devotees of the
peace loving and prosperity invoking great Ramakrishna Tradition with Service and Sacrifice as their
motto. Since then the Triple Institutions have been involved in various service activities in and around
Udupi District.
As you know very well that Swami Vivekananda's legacy envelops the entire humanity of the
present generation and generations to come, for it ever seeks universal Love, Peace and Harmony. His
philosophy has a global impact, global awakening. Swami Vivekananda preached and brought to
daylight the grandest and the highest human ideal of – “ÍzÉuÉ ¥ÉÉlÉå eÉÏuÉ xÉåuÉÉ” i.e. “serving all beings seeing God
in them”; and “AÉiqÉlÉÉå qÉÉå¤ÉÉjÉïÇ eÉaÉSè ÌWûiÉÉrÉ cÉ” i.e. “For one's own salvation and for welfare of humanity”, which
was demonstrated by his Guru Sri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa in his own life. Sri Ramakrishna lived and
recognized that in spite of the differences, all religions lead to the same ultimate goal, hence all are valid
and true.
The present need of the hour is one world of peace, love and harmony in which every human being
accepts other irrespective of his caste, creed, and religion and lives in harmony peacefully. Our youths
and younger generations are in need of the jñāna (wisdom) which will uplift and free them from the ever
sinking spiral of technological delusions they have been driven into. The time is ripe that the ideas and
ideology of Sri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa which was preached by Swami Vivekananda should be made
to reach the present generation and be preserved to flow through the future generations.
Thus not only to commemorate Swami Vivekananda's immense contribution to mankind, but
mainly to keep the humanity inspired at all times and make them aware of their Divinity, this project of
“Viveka-Darshan – a place for awakening of the mind” - a Cultural, Spiritual and Educational Theme
park on Swami Vivekananda has been conceptualized.
The focal point of the proposed Viveka-Darshan will be the grand Global Monument of Swami
Vivekananda a 100feet tall monolithic figure of the monk making which as the epicentre the entire
heritage park will be developed. Page 1 of 2
The entire set up would be designed in such a way as to bring about transformation in the
human consciousness of the visitor at large by its own existence and reaching people through
electronic media to touch the minds and hearts of the people visiting the place. A detailed account of
Viveka-Darshan and units coming up is given in the brochure attached along with this letter.
Necessary sanctions from Government is underway and the Trust is in the process of acquiring a
total of 31acres of land around the place where the Monolithic Statue of Swami Vivekananda is going to
be sculptured. We are in a need of Rs.9.5crores (nine crores and fifty lakhs) to be raised for completing
the land acquisition of 31acres of land and doing the basic infrastructure, DPR (detailed project
