Swami Vivekananda's philosophy can be described as ............. .
Answer: D
Swami Vivekananda's philosophy is described as Practical Vedanta.
Vivekananda took the Advaita Vedanta teaching that the same divinity is present in every being and turned it into a guide for action: serving human beings, especially the poor, as service to God, and building strength and character through education. He spoke of it himself as 'Practical Vedanta' in lectures of 1896, and the Ramakrishna Mission was founded to put it into practice.
His philosophy was spiritual and intellectually rigorous and had a social message, but 'spiritual', 'intellectual' and 'sociological' Vedanta are not the established name for it.
