Swami Vivekananda traveled to India after embarking on his journey and went to Kanyakumari, where he came to know that a gathering of all religions of the world is happening in the US city of Chicago. So in 1893, with great difficulty, he went to America with his own efforts. It was good for Hindutva and Bharat Varsha(India) that Swamiji could go in, where he had promoted such a high favor in favor of Hindutva, as never before, nor has he been able to till this day Swamiji participated as a representative ofcat the All-religion conference in Chicago city. In the conference, the way Swamiji introduced the knowledge, generosity and the prudence , the people there became spellbound. When he addressed the Americans with the words of the “Brothers and Sisters” in his first speech, the conference received a huge reception-sound welcome. While highlighting the generosity of Hindu religion, he said that there is no intolerance in the dictionary of Hindutva. He also explained that the foundation of Hindu religion is not exploitation, bloodshed or violence but love. Swamiji also highlighted the truth of Vedanta until the conference ended,.Swamiji had established himself and the influence of India in America. In praise of Swami ji’s speeches, the American newspaper The New York Herald wrote, “Vivekananda is the greatest person in the all-religion conference. On hearing his speech, this question arises unintentionally that how foolish it is to send a missionary to reform such a knowledgeable nation.
This conference made Swami ji the world famous. He traveled to many US cities, where he was welcomed. They went to Paris from America and in many cities of Europe they spoke on Hinduism and Vedanta philosophy. They roamed abroad for almost three years. In this short period, the prestige of Hindu religion and culture was established in Europe and America by their speeches, conversations, articles and statements. In September 1895, he went to London and also there propagated religion. He went to America again and in February 1896, he founded the Vedanta Society in New York, whose goal was to promote Vedanta. Many of his followers became followers in America. They wanted some Indian propagators to propagate the Indian philosophy in America i.e. Vedanta and their American disciples teach the importance of science and organization by visiting the India.
