"This is the gist of all worship—to be pure and to do good to others. He who sees Shiva in the poor, in the weak, and in the diseased, really worships Shiva; and if he sees Shiva only in the image, his worship is but preliminary."
Swami Vivekananda
Founder, Ramakrishna Mission
Our educational institutions, homes for boys and girls, charitable dispensary, medical camps, disaster relief works, rural development and other welfare services undertaken by the Mission are expressions of selfless service done in the spirit of ‘service of God in man’ as envisaged by Swami Vivekananda.
