Swami Vivekananda, born Narendranath Datta, was a key figure in the introduction of Indian philosophies of Vedanta and Yoga to the Western world. He is best remembered for his speech at the Parliament of the World's Religions in Chicago in 1893, where he addressed the audience as "Sisters and Brothers of America." In "Messenger Of Indian Wisdom," Sushmita Dutta delves deep into the life and teachings of Vivekananda, portraying his profound influence both in India and abroad. The biography traces Vivekananda's journey from his early life in Kolkata to his travels in America and Europe, emphasizing his role in revitalizing Indian spirituality and introducing Vedanta philosophy to the world.
