About us

Vivekananda Cultural Centre is a unit of Sri Ramakrishna Math, Chennai located inside the Vivekanandar Illam Campus, Triplicane.

Swami Vivekananda wanted every Indian to be proud of India’s great cultural legacy. He wanted every Indian to study and assimilate their cultural values and strive for further enrichment. He was convinced that a dynamic future with all round excellence, both at individual and collective levels, can be built only by assimilating and enhancing the core cultural values that India has been nourishing all through her history.

The Centre functions as an ‘Academy for Human Excellence’ and trains participants, through its multi-dimensional programs, in achieving excellence through value assimilation and adopting a healthy, holistic and culturally enriched lifestyle.
