THANK YOU IN THE NAME OF THE MOST ANCIENT ORDER OF MONKS IN THE WORLD


Sisters and Brothers of America,
It fills my heart with joy unspeakable to rise in response to the warm and cordial welcome which you have given us. I thank you in the name of the most ancient order of monks in the world; I thank you in the name of the mother of religions; and I thank you in the name of millions and millions of Hindu people of all classes and sects.

- Swami Vivekananda
Delivered at the World's Parliament of Religions, Chicago, 11th September 1893.
