Stump Tim & Tonya: Swami Vivekananda Statue

Today's picture comes from Bhavna Goswami of Buffalo Grove.

According to the Vivekananda Vedanta Society:

The first statue of Swami Vivekananda in America was installed at 4 PM on Sunday, July 12, 1998 at the Hindu Temple of Greater Chicago in Lemont, Illinois.

The statue was installed on "Vivekananda Hill", a hillock in the temple compound, which overlooks the main entrance. The statue was unveiled by Shri J.C. Sharma, Consul General of India, Chicago at an elaborate ceremony.
