"Sisters and brothers of America..." With those four words, Swami Vivekananda ignited a civilizational dialogue 133 years ago. Today, the India-US relationship is a lot more than just trade, defence or tech; it’s a legacy of intellectual exchange and spiritual synergy that Swamiji pioneered. Appreciate the city of Seattle for honoring this legacy in the grand form that it deserves!

More than 130 years since his historic address in Chicago, Swami Vivekananda finds a new home in the heart of downtown Seattle!
