"The only true teacher is he
who can immediately come down to the level of the student, and transfer
his soul to the student's soul and see through the students's eyes
and hear through his ears and under stand through his mind. Such a teacher
can relly teach and none else."
The Ministry of Human Resource Development, Government of India, accorded
permission to the Ramakrishna Mission to start a deemed university named
the Ramakrishna Mission Vivekananda Educational and Research Institute
by a Gazette Notification dated 5 January 2005. Later, the University was
renamed as ‘Ramakrishna Mission Vivekananda University’. The
formal inauguration took place on 4 July 2005, in memory of Swami Vivekananda’s
passing away on 4th July 1902.
The
first convocation of the university was held on 2 September 2006 at its
first off-campus Faculty centre of Disability Management and Special Education
at Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, India.
Swami
Vivekananda envisioned that Belur Math would be a centre of great harmony
and synthesis, not only of all religious beliefs and traditions, but also
of arts and sciences and the various branches of knowledge, both secular
and spiritual. It would be the centre of great spiritual and cultural awakening.
