About Ramakrishna Vivekananda Centre

The Ramakrishna - Vivekananda Center, is a branch of the Ramakrishna Order of India. Incorporated in 1933 as a non-profit religious organization under the laws of New York State, it maintains a temple in Manhattan (New York, NY) and a summer cottage at Thousand Island Park, New York where Swami Vivekananda lived and taught in 1895. The Ramakrishna-Vivekananda Center seeks to stimulate the growth of the individual's innate spirituality through lectures, discourses, publications, and individual guidance according to the universal principles of Yoga and Vedanta. The disciplines the Center provides are suited to individual needs and temperaments. It does not deal with the occult or sensational and offers no easy shortcuts.
