Enriching one's life has always been the central theme of all philosophy. Every person at some point or other will tend to think of some fundamental questions of life like "In a semingly busy and conflicting world, how do I mould my personality to the best, unravelling my hidden potentials ? " , " How can I maintain inner poise in a world that does not seem to wait for me ? " , " What do 'values' mean in the modern context ? ".
One is often told that the grandest and deepest ideas ever thought on Man were in India and that this is her greatest contribution to the world. Can the science of man as thought out here radically enrich our life ? Are the ideas practiced by the sages of the yore relavent in an age of computer and space travel ? India herself is besieged with troubles. What is the way out for her ? Rabindranath Tagore once said " To know India, study Vivekananda. In him everything is positive and nothing negative. " His message makes a refreshing study even today, for he dealt with certain fundamental aspects of our problems.
These are some issues VSC is set out to ponder over through its various activities which include weekly classes, Guided meditation, study of life and teachings of Swami Vivekananda, Lectures and Discussions on topics like Gita, Upanishads etc. , and several other activities such as Special Lectures, Guest Lectures, Debates, Exhibitions, Camps Trips, etc., based on our objectives.

"Like the gentle dew that falls unseen and
unheard, and yet brings into blossom the fairest of the roses has been the
influence of
India
upon the world. Silent, unperceived, yet omnipotent in its effect, it has
revolutionised the thought of the world.............
Its life is
of the same nature of the soul, without beginning and end and we belong to such
a country............. Ye are the children of immortality(Amruthasya Puthraha),
holy and perfect beings. Ye divinities on earth- sinners!!It is a sin to call a
man so; it is a standing libel on human nature. Come up O lions, and shake off
the delusion that you are sheep; you are soul immortal,spirits free and eternal"
