Response to welcome At the World's Parliament of Religions, Chicago 11th Sept...Ravi Ramakrishnan
Swami Vivekananda thanks the audience at the World's Parliament of Religions in Chicago for their warm welcome. He represents Hinduism, the most ancient religion, and is proud that Hinduism has sheltered persecuted peoples of all religions, including remnants of the Israelites and Zoroastrians. He quotes a Hindu hymn that says the different paths that men take lead ultimately to God, just as the rivers converge in the sea, reflecting the conference's theme of religious tolerance and unity. He hopes this convention signals the end of sectarianism, fanaticism, and religious persecution.
Narendranath Datta was born in 1863 in Calcutta, India. As a young man, he had doubts about God's existence until meeting the spiritual leader Sri Ramakrishna, who became his guru. He changed his name to Swami Vivekananda and went to Chicago in 1893 to represent Hinduism at the World's Parliament of Religions, where his speech was very well received. After gaining fame in the West, Vivekananda returned to India in 1897 and passed away in 1902 at the age of 39 in Belur Math, India.
SWAMI VIVEKANANDA’S SPEECH AT WORLD PARLIAMENT OF RELIGION, CHICAGODokka Srinivasu
Swami Vivekananda gave a speech at the World's Parliament of Religions in Chicago in 1893 where he:
1) Thanked the audience on behalf of Hinduism and millions of Hindus, praising their acceptance of different religions.
2) Explained that Hinduism believes in universal toleration and acceptance of all religions as true, sheltering persecuted people of all faiths throughout history.
3) Argued that religious fanaticism has caused violence throughout history but its time is coming to an end, hoping the convention signals the death of fanaticism and persecution between those following different faiths to the same goal.
Swami Vivekananda thanks the audience of 7,000 for their warm welcome on behalf of Hinduism and millions of Hindus. He is proud to belong to Hinduism, which has taught tolerance of all religions and has sheltered persecuted groups throughout history such as remnants of the Israelites and Zoroastrians. Vivekananda quotes a Hindu hymn that different paths may appear different but ultimately lead to the same truth. He hopes that the convention celebrating religious tolerance marks the end of sectarianism, bigotry, fanaticism and violence between those of different faiths who are all striving for the same spiritual truths.
Swami #Vivekananda Bengali: , Shāmi Bibekānondo; 12 January 1863 – 4 July 1902), born #Narendranath Datta, was an Indian Hindu monk, a chief disciple of the 19th-century Indian mystic Ramakrishna. He was a key figure in the introduction of the Indian philosophies of# Vedanta and #Yoga to the Western world and is credited with raising #interfaith awareness, bringing Hinduism to the status of a major world religion during the late 19th century. He was a major force in the revival of Hinduism in India, and contributed to the concept of nationalism in colonial India. Vivekananda founded the #Ramakrishna Math and the Ramakrishna Mission. He is perhaps best known for his speech which began, "Sisters and brothers of America ...," in which he introduced Hinduism at the Parliament of the World's Religions in Chicago in 1893.
Born into an aristocratic Bengali family of Calcutta, Vivekananda was inclined towards spirituality. He was influenced by his Guru, Ramakrishna Deva, from whom he learnt that all living beings were an embodiment of the divine self; therefore, service to God could be rendered by service to mankind. After Ramakrishna's death, Vivekananda toured the Indian subcontinent extensively and acquired first-hand knowledge of the conditions prevailing in British India. He later traveled to the United States, representing India at the 1893 Parliament of the World Religions. Vivekananda conducted hundreds of public and private lectures and classes, disseminating tenets of Hindu philosophy in the United States, England and Europe. In India, Vivekananda is regarded as a patriotic saint and his birthday is celebrated there as National Youth Day.
Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam is a Sanskrit phrase meaning "the world is one family." The document discusses the origins and meaning of this phrase, as well as how it has been interpreted and promoted by various figures throughout history. It advocates seeing all people and living things as part of one family. Swami Vivekananda helped revive this concept of universal brotherhood. Modern leaders still reference the ideal of seeing the whole world as an interconnected family.

This document is an excerpt from Swami Vivekananda's lecture "What is Religion?". In the excerpt, Vivekananda discusses the universal human desire for freedom and how this desire underlies all forms of worship and religion. He explains that even in the lowest forms of worship, people are seeking to propitiate higher powers to gain more freedom. Vivekananda also discusses how the conception of God as a perfectly free being arises from humanity's struggle against bondage. Finally, he explains how true freedom and salvation can only be achieved by facing difficulties directly rather than fleeing from them, and by seeing the divine in all aspects of life, both pleasant and unpleasant.

This document is an encyclical letter from Pope Francis titled "Fratelli Tutti" on fraternity and social friendship. In the introduction, Pope Francis discusses how Saint Francis of Assisi called for a love that transcends boundaries. He notes that Saint Francis inspired him to write this encyclical to promote fraternity and social friendship. The document will examine the universal scope of human fraternity and how we can overcome attempts to eliminate or ignore others.
The document discusses unity and diversity in India. It states that India is described as a "unity in diversity" country because it contains a wide variety of people from different religions, languages, traditions, castes, etc. Although there are these differences, the people of India live together in peace and harmony under one central authority. Some of the key aspects that contribute to unity in diversity in India include having one Prime Minister and central government, the majority practice of Hinduism along with other religions, celebration of shared festivals and cultural events, and Sanskrit maintaining influence despite other languages being spoken.

He encouraged investing in education to empower the people and develop the nation from within.
This document summarizes a speech given by Dr. Zakir Naik on the topic of "Focus on Islam". The key points are:
1. Islam has existed since the first man set foot on Earth, and many prophets were sent over time to different peoples and nations with revelations from God. The final prophet was Muhammad, who brought the final revelation, the Quran.
2. Islam's core meaning is "submitting one's will to God". Those who follow Islam are called Muslims.

3. The Quran is

Why Psychological Safety Matters for Software Teams - ACE 2024 - Ben Linders.pdfBen Linders
Psychological safety in teams is important; team members must feel safe and able to communicate and collaborate effectively to deliver value. It’s also necessary to build long-lasting teams since things will happen and relationships will be strained.
But, how safe is a team? How can we determine if there are any factors that make the team unsafe or have an impact on the team’s culture?
In this mini-workshop, we’ll play games for psychological safety and team culture utilizing a deck of coaching cards, The Psychological Safety Cards. We will learn how to use gamification to gain a better understanding of what’s going on in teams. Individuals share what they have learned from working in teams, what has impacted the team’s safety and culture, and what has led to positive change.
Different game formats will be played in groups in parallel. Examples are an ice-breaker to get people talking about psychological safety, a constellation where people take positions about aspects of psychological safety in their team or organization, and collaborative card games where people work together to create an environment that fosters psychological safety.

1.) Introduction
Our Movement is not new; it is the same as it was for Freedom, Justice, and Equality since we were labeled as slaves. However, this movement at its core must entail economics.
2.) Historical Context
This is the same movement because none of the previous movements, such as boycotts, were ever completed. For some, maybe, but for the most part, it’s just a place to keep your stable until you’re ready to assimilate them into your system. The rest of the crabs are left in the world’s worst parts, begging for scraps.
3.) Economic Empowerment
Our Movement aims to show that it is indeed possible for the less fortunate to establish their economic system. Everyone else – Caucasian, Asian, Mexican, Israeli, Jews, etc. – has their systems, and they all set up and usurp money from the less fortunate. So, the less fortunate buy from every one of them, yet none of them buy from the less fortunate. Moreover, the less fortunate really don’t have anything to sell.
4.) Collaboration with Organizations
Our Movement will demonstrate how organizations such as the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, National Urban League, Black Lives Matter, and others can assist in creating a much more indestructible Black Wall Street.
5.) Vision for the Future
Our Movement will not settle for less than those who came before us and stopped before the rights were equal. The economy, jobs, healthcare, education, housing, incarceration – everything is unfair, and what isn’t is rigged for the less fortunate to fail, as evidenced in society.
6.) Call to Action
Our movement has started and implemented everything needed for the advancement of the economic system. There are positions for only those who understand the importance of this movement, as failure to address it will continue the degradation of the people deemed less fortunate.
No, this isn’t Noah’s Ark, nor am I a Prophet. I’m just a man who wrote a couple of books, created a magnificent website: http://www.thearkproject.llc, and who truly hopes to try and initiate a truly sustainable economic system for deprived people. We may not all have the same beliefs, but if our methods are tried, tested, and proven, we can come together and help others. My website: http://www.thearkproject.llc is very informative and considerably controversial. Please check it out, and if you are afraid, leave immediately; it’s no place for cowards. The last Prophet said: “Whoever among you sees an evil action, then let him change it with his hand [by taking action]; if he cannot, then with his tongue [by speaking out]; and if he cannot, then, with his heart – and that is the weakest of faith.” [Sahih Muslim] If we all, or even some of us, did this, there would be significant change. We are able to witness it on small and grand scales, for example, from climate control to business partnerships. I encourage, invite, and challenge you all to support me by visiting my website.

Carrer goals.pptx and their importance in real lifeartemacademy2
Career goals serve as a roadmap for individuals, guiding them toward achieving long-term professional aspirations and personal fulfillment. Establishing clear career goals enables professionals to focus their efforts on developing specific skills, gaining relevant experience, and making strategic decisions that align with their desired career trajectory. By setting both short-term and long-term objectives, individuals can systematically track their progress, make necessary adjustments, and stay motivated. Short-term goals often include acquiring new qualifications, mastering particular competencies, or securing a specific role, while long-term goals might encompass reaching executive positions, becoming industry experts, or launching entrepreneurial ventures.
Moreover, having well-defined career goals fosters a sense of purpose and direction, enhancing job satisfaction and overall productivity. It encourages continuous learning and adaptation, as professionals remain attuned to industry trends and evolving job market demands. Career goals also facilitate better time management and resource allocation, as individuals prioritize tasks and opportunities that advance their professional growth. In addition, articulating career goals can aid in networking and mentorship, as it allows individuals to communicate their aspirations clearly to potential mentors, colleagues, and employers, thereby opening doors to valuable guidance and support. Ultimately, career goals are integral to personal and professional development, driving individuals toward sustained success and fulfillment in their chosen fields.

Swami Vivekananda - Inspirational Speech for kids – Mocomi.com
1. At theWorld's Parliament of Religions
Sept 11, 1893
Sisters and Brothers of America,
It fills my heart with joy unspeakable to rise in response to
the warm and cordial welcome which you have given us.
I thank you in the name of the most ancient order of monks
in the world; I thank you in the name of the mother of
religions; and I thank you in the name of the millions and
millions of Hindu people of all classes and sects.
My thanks, also, to some of the speakers on this platform
who, referring to the delegates from the Orient, have told
you that these men from far-off nations may well claim the
honor of bearing to different lands the idea of toleration.
I am proud to belong to a religion which has taught the
world both tolerance and universal acceptance. We believe
not only in universal toleration, but we accept all religions as
true.
I am proud to belong to a nation which has sheltered the
persecuted and the refugees of all religions and all nations
of the earth.
Swami Vivekananda
Swami Vivekananda was a
Hindu philosopher and
founder of the Ram-
akrishna mission. The
learned swami spoke at
the convention even
though it was required
for all delegates to have
apt credentials and he
had none.
