Swamy Vivekananda & Women’s Empowerment …Swami Vivekananda championed women’s empowerment through education, self-reliance, and spiritual equality, believing national progress hinges on women’s upliftment, famously stating “You can’t build a nation with one wing”. He advocated for women to solve their own problems, emphasising education as key to unlocking their inherent strength, and seeing them as spiritual equals with immense potential, not inferior to men, urging their development as mothers, teachers, and leaders to build a stronger India.
