Swami Vivekananda, a spiritual luminary of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, envisioned education as the means to transform individuals into virtuous, self-aware, and socially responsible beings. His man-making education model prioritizes character development, moral values, and holistic growth, striking a harmonious chord with humanistic ideals. Humanistic education, rooted in the belief that individuals possess innate potential for growth and self-actualization, resonates remarkably with Vivekananda's vision of nurturing the latent divinity within each human being. Swami Vivekananda's educational principles emphasize the holistic development of individuals, encompassing intellectual growth, character formation, and spiritual enrichment. This research paper aims to investigate the role, core principles and relevance of Swami Vivekananda's man-making education philosophy in the contemporary educational system. Through a qualitative documentary analysis approach, I explore how his ideas have been disseminated and interpreted within the context of modern education. The findings of this research contribute to the ongoing discourse on educational reform, highlighting the enduring relevance of man-making education in fostering holistic personal development, self-actualization, and a sense of purpose in students. This research illuminates the powerful synthesis of humanistic education and Vivekananda's vision, reinforcing the significance of nurturing the innate potential within every individual. This synthesis offers a compelling blueprint for contemporary education, one that cultivates not just knowledgeable individuals but also compassionate and self-actualized human beings capable of making a positive impact on society.
