Swami Vivekananda has been hailed as the greatest teacher of humanity. His concept, method, scope of education is known to be very comprehensive as it is not confined to the limits of time and space. Being universal, his methods and approaches are being adopted though may be in a modified manner throughout the universe. He is a monk who furnished ample inrush of information on education that is quite enough to change it for the better. He renders education as the life changing process and in a sense it transforms itself into preparation of life. He is a great monk of humanity who worked painstakingly for the amelioration of the society. He has deep and profound insights to be given to the modern educators for modifying the very process of education. One of the contributions that Swami Vivekananda has rendered in education is the very linking of religion with education as he was of the view that religion is the fundamental element in the very education process as without religion, no one can actually improve his character. Hence in order to make an individual a better human being, religion has been termed as a foundation for basing education. Many of the educators have discussed the issue of education and seen it as a divorced from religious linkage. This paper however focuses on Swami Vivekananda’s very concept of education, providing a brief review of his educational perspective and trying to evaluate his education as a correlated form of religion, education in co-existence with religious inputs can sustain the needs of the time.
