The Vivekananda Cultural Centre, Chennai, resonated with youthful energy and enthusiasm on Thursday, 5 February 2026, while hosting the 13th Way to Success Workshop. The programme brought together 100 bright Class 9th students from The Indian Public School, along with five dedicated teachers, for an enriching day of inspiration and guided self-growth. A key feature of the workshop was an engaging and insightful session by Ms. Krishnaveni, conducted in English. She introduced the students to the life of Swami Vivekananda, highlighting his inspiring journey and profound teachings. Through simple explanations, interactive discussions, and relatable examples, she explained how Swamiji’s ideals can be practically implemented in everyday life—especially in cultivating strong character, improving concentration, developing disciplined study habits, and facing examinations with confidence. Her session helped students understand how Swami Vivekananda’s message guides them towards academic excellence while shaping a balanced and value-oriented personality. The learning experience was further enriched with a visit to the Experience Vivekananda Museum. The immersive exhibits beautifully narrated the life, travels, and universal vision of Swami Vivekananda, allowing students to relate the workshop insights to powerful real-life stories and ideals. The workshop concluded on a joyful and memorable note with the distribution of certificates, books, and photographs of Swamiji. Refreshments were served, and a group photograph near the Swami Vivekananda statue captured the vibrant spirit of curiosity, happiness, and inspiration that marked the day.
