Much could be said and written about Vivekananda, many arguments could be advanced upholding different standpoints in an effort to explain his intricate and inimitable world outlook. More works about him will no doubt be written both in India in other countries and this is fine if they help understand more fully and deeply the ideas of the great patriot. We can safely say that many years will pass, many generations will come and go, Vivekananda and his time will become the distant past, but never will there fade the memory of the man who all his life dreamed of a better future for his people, who did so much to awaken his compatriots and move India forward, to defend his much suffering people from injustice and brutality. Like a rocky cliff protecting a coastal valley from storm and bad weather; from the blows of ill winds and waves, Vivekananda fought courageously and selflessly against the enemies of his motherland. Together with the Indian people, Soviet people who already know some of the works of Vivekananda published in USSR, Highly revere the memory of the Great Indian patriot, humanist and democrat, impassioned fighter for a better future for his people and all mankind.
