Swami Vivekananda, a sage who lived a long ago, continues to inspire millions of lives worldwide with his words. Swami Vivekananda exemplifies a soul working on multiple levels simultaneously. While historical information about him exists in the physical world, he once remarked, “What Vivekananda has accomplished, only Vivekananda knows”.
The physical plane of existence represents the ultimate extension in the spectrum of manifestation. Beyond it lie multiple planes, dimensions, and interdimensional portals. Among these are the spiritual and astral planes, along with countless universes. Intelligent life inhabits all these realms, and certain masters possess access to these portals connecting different planes of existence.
A remarkable master, largely unrecognized by the world, glimpsed aspects of Swami Vivekananda’s life. He remarked that Swami Vivekananda worked hard in the astral plane for India’s freedom. Additionally, he worked with a great passion in identifying a batch of souls to serve in Shambhala, the mystical city. Finally, after his physical death, Vivekananda returned to an earth to continue his work in the plane of Truth, known as Satya Loka. Our Earth exists within the plane of Bhu Loka, where spiritual and malevolent forces have equal opportunities to assert dominance over each other during specific cycles of time.
In Swami Vivekananda, one can discern the essence of various forms of yoga—devotion, self-surrender, and self-knowledge. His teachings encompassed the holistic path that humanity continues to explore.
