PRACTICAL VEDANTA, THE REAL MESSAGE OF SWAMI VIVEKANANDA
According to Vedanta, the essence of all science and religion is the knowledge of oneself in one's deeper nature as pure consciousness transcending all time' space and material embodiment. Vivekananda emphasized Jnana Yoga or the Yoga of knowledge, which is the same as Vedanta, the meditation path leading to Self-knowledge.

Bhakti Yoga, the Yoga of devotion, was also very important to him and he was proficient in chants to the different deities of Hinduism like Shiva and Devi. Raja Yoga, emphasizing the development of the will, was significant for him as well. He saw that the gaining control of the will and developing the power of self-determination was key to the growth of mind and character.
