He emphasized the importance of selfless service from "summary" of Swami Vivekananda : Leader of Sacred Nationhood by Prof. S. K. Chakraborty

Swami Vivekananda ardently promoted the idea that serving others without any expectation of personal gain was of utmost importance. He believed that true fulfillment could be achieved through selfless service to humanity. Vivekananda emphasized the profound impact that acts of kindness and service could have on individuals and society as a whole. For him, selfless service was not simply a noble gesture, but a fundamental duty that all individuals should strive to fulfill.

He saw service as a way to express love and compassion towards others, transcending barriers of religion, caste, and nationality. By practicing selfless service, individuals could cultivate a sense of unity and brotherhood among all humanity. Vivekananda saw service as a means to spiritual growth and self-realization, a path to attaining higher consciousness and enlightenment. In Vivekananda's view, serving others was a way to honor the divine presence within each individual. By selflessly serving others, one could recognize and connect with the divinity that exists in all beings. For Vivekananda, selfless service was not a means to seek recognition or praise, but a humble offering to the greater good. He believed that true service was characterized by humility, sincerity, and a genuine desire to alleviate the suffering of others. Vivekananda's emphasis on selfless service was not limited to charitable acts or material assistance. He believed that service could take many forms, including sharing knowledge, providing emotional support, or simply offering a listening ear. Vivekananda encouraged individuals to serve with an open heart and a spirit of goodwill, without expecting anything in return. For him, the act of service itself was its own reward, bringing joy and fulfillment to both the giver and the receiver.
