Abstract
According to Swami Vivekananda human's instinctive urge to transcend senses and to ask questions about self and life are the basis of any religion. He maintains that such a natural impulse to be self-conscious and the ability for self-transcendence have remained an inseparable phenomenon of human life from time immemorial. Hence it can be said that though there are religious differences on the surface level, there is harmony at the base. This article deals with the Swami Vivekananda's view that such a religious diversity is necessary for the spiritual and material development of society.
