Swami Atmanand is known as the builder of Ramakrishna Mission Vivekananda Ashram Raipur. Intense intelligent, energetic orator and open laughter were his hallmarks.

When Swami Vivekananda had returned from Chicago with a new interpretation of Hindu religion, many young people of Bharatbhoomi left their homes, families and businesses and went on the path shown by Shiva to serve them with knowledge, poor and sick, uneducated as if they were Narayan who had to be served.
