The Vivekananda Rock Memorial, located about 500 meters off the coast of Kanyakumari, the southernmost tip of India, is a monument of profound beauty and mystery. It stands as a tribute to Swami Vivekananda, one of India's greatest spiritual leaders, who bridged the nation’s spiritual essence to the world.

For Vivekananda, This Rock was his 'Sarnath'

It was upon this rock in Kanyakumari that Swami Vivekananda meditated, drawing parallels to the significance of Sarnath in the life of Gautama Buddha. Now, the same rock captivates Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The rock not only holds historical significance but also bears spiritual importance reflecting the vision of an evolved India as seen by Swami Vivekananda. It is also believed to be the spot where the deity Parvati performed penance on one foot for Lord Shiva.
