AMSP. VIVEKANANDAN
AMSP. VIVEKANANDAN - Patron & Advisor of the Malaysian Bharathi Tamil Mandram
Global Achievement Award for contributions in the field of Community & Educational Services - Citation
Clairvoyance must have been the attribute of his parents, for they named him after the mystic monk Vivekananda — who advocated for religious tolerance, universal acceptance, and selfless service to humanity: the Karma Yoga.
All these inherent divine qualities embody in our Vivekanandan. Though a Barrister from the famous Lincoln's Inn, his priorities lie in spirituality and service to the community.
"A lawyer's greatest asset is not their knowledge of the law, but their unwavering commitment to justice." Knowing very well that "the lawyer who cannot see beyond the case is handicapped," - he sees beyond the scope of law and into the divine in everybody. He seeks to empower the youth through education and religious understanding.
Residing in an essentially Muslim country — Malaysia — he has the innate courage to be the Advisor to ISKCON, the Shiva Subramanya Alayam, and the Divine Life Society.
In his initiative toward teaching underprivileged Indian children, he runs a kindergarten school to inculcate religion, culture, and spirituality. Three acres of prime land were donated by his father for running a primary school.
Active in the Malaysian Tamil Mandram, he is also the Protem Chairman of the UN Association of Malaysia.
Here is a person of whom it can be said:
In the search for me, he discovered Truth.
In the search for Truth, he discovered Love.
In the search for Love, he discovered God.
And in God, he found everything.
We are deeply honoured to bestow this Citation of Appreciation.
