Meeting between "industrialist
and saint -- this is between Jamshed Tata and Swami Vivekananda.
"On November 23, 1898, both were traveling from Tokyo
to Chicago, and
when Swami Vivekananda asked Jamshed Tata where he was headed. Jamshed Tata
said, 'I am going to buy steel for my plants in India. Vivekananda's advice to Tata
was that not only should he have steel manufacturing plants, but he should also
start an institute that could study the science of making steel and today that advice
has transformed into the Indian Institute of Science."
"This
is how a spiritual mind and industrial mind worked together to evolve not only
Tata Steel in Jamshednagar -- 7 billion tons they are producing -- but also
great research institution was born
