Such a wonderful list to read! I found a lot of new discoveries, much to catch up onthank you so much for compiling this. There is *one* thing I wanted to mention: I kind of dislike it when I do a public post similar to this and someone is swift to jump in and “correct” me, or give their “opinion” on how right or wrong I am!

So please don’t think I’m doing thatI just wanted to point out, in terms of Swami Vivekananda, you write, “His books introduced the concepts of Vedanta and Yoga to the Western world.” While indeed he was a prominent Indian philospher and one of the first writers in English of the Vedas and so on, actually his books were not that big in the west. The first person to actually “introduce the concepts of Vedanta and yoga to the Western world” was Swami Bhaktivedanta (1896-1977), whose books have been translated into countless languages, and tens of millions of copies sold worldwide. To be honest, I’m always stunned that India overlooks Bhaktivedanta Swami, a phenomenal Indian of huge historical merit.
