New Delhi, Aug 1 (SocialNews.XYZ) Prime Minister Narendra Modi will inaugurate the Swami Vivekananda Cultural Youth Centre – Viveka Smaraka at the Sri Ramakrishna Ashrama in Mysuru, Karnataka, on Saturday, with the centre set to serve as a platform for youth empowerment through value-based education, leadership development, personality building and the promotion of the spirit of nation-building.
Ahead of the inauguration, Swami Tyagishwarananda, Secretary of Ramakrishna Ashrama, Davanagere, said the centre’s main objective is to educate and inspire young people by following the ideals of Swami Vivekananda.
“It is certainly empowering, without any doubt. Looking at the achievements of Prime Minister Narendra Modi as the Prime Minister of this country, we can see that he has focussed on strengthening the fundamentals, improving education, expanding access to learning, promoting India’s culture and reinforcing the country’s Sanatan Dharma heritage. He has been working tirelessly towards these goals,” Swami Tyagishwarananda told IANS.
The Viveka Smaraka has been developed to commemorate Swami Vivekananda’s historic visit to Mysuru in November 1892 during his journey across India. The centre aims to carry forward his message of character building, knowledge, service and youth leadership by creating opportunities for learning, reflection and personal development.
Speaking about the vision behind the project, Swami Tyagishwarananda said, “That is the main objective of the Viveka Smaraka — to educate and inspire the youth. Everything we do is guided by our core principles and our motto. Today’s young generation is the future of India, and our role is to motivate and guide them.”
He added, “Our aim is to remove ignorance through the ideal of ‘Atmano Mokshartham Jagat Hitaya Cha’, to seek one’s own spiritual growth while working for the welfare of the world.”
Meanwhile, Swami Muktidananda, President of Mysuru Ramakrishna Ashrama, welcomed Prime Minister Modi’s visit and said, “Today, Hon’ble Prime Minister Narendra Modi ji is arriving in Mysuru on the occasion of the inauguration of the Swami Vivekananda Cultural Youth Centre. We extend our heartfelt welcome to him.”
The centre has been designed as a comprehensive facility focussed on youth development and cultural learning. It includes spaces for educational activities, leadership programmes and initiatives aimed at encouraging young people to contribute towards society and nation-building.
Ahead of the Prime Minister’s arrival, security arrangements have been strengthened across Mysuru. Police have deployed additional personnel along key routes, including Narayana Shastri Road, and barricades have been placed around the Viveka Smaraka premises. Final preparations have been completed at the Ramakrishna Ashrama, with authorities maintaining high alert along the Prime Minister’s route. Public vehicles have been restricted from operating on the designated route from noon as part of the security arrangements.
The inauguration of the Viveka Smaraka is expected to mark a significant step towards promoting Swami Vivekananda’s vision of youth empowerment, education, self-development and service to society.
