Read Explanation:
Neo-Vedanta Movement
Swami Vivekananda is the principal propagator of the Neo-Vedanta (or Practical Vedanta) movement, which reinterpreted the classical Advaita Vedanta of Adi Shankaracharya to suit the needs of the modern world.
The term "Neo-Vedanta" was coined by the German Indologist Paul Hacker to distinguish modern developments from traditional Advaita Vedanta.
Unlike traditional Vedanta, which often emphasized world-renunciation and monasticism, Neo-Vedanta focuses on social service and practical action, equating the service of humanity with the worship of God ("Jiva is Shiva").
The concept of "Daridra Narayana" (serving the poor as God) is a cornerstone of this philosophy.
