In this article we'll make a collection of Swami Vivekananda's quotes and comments on Mughal Emperor Akbar.

  • Akbar the Great became practically a Hindu; educated Mohammedans, the Sufis, are hardly to be distinguished from the Hindus; they do not eat beef, and in other ways conform to our usages. Their thought has become permeated by ours.[Source]

  • Akbar's, though more to the purpose, was only a parlour-meeting.(on Akbar's religious council and Din-e Ilahi)[Source]

  • Europe was born in the sixteenth century A.D. i.e. about the time when Akbar, Jehangir, Shahjahan, and other Moghul Emperors firmly established their mighty empire in India.[Source]

  • Even if the kings be of as godlike nature as that of Yudhishthira, Ramachandra, Dharmashoka, or Akbar under whose benign rule the people enjoyed safety and prosperity, and were looked after with paternal care by their rulers, the hand of him who is always fed by another gradually loses the power of taking the food to his mouth.[Source]

  • For three ruling generations from Akbar, learning, wisdom, and arts came to be much esteemed in India.[Source]

  • The great Akbar, the Mogul Emperor, was practically a Hindu.[Source]

  • The number of kings like Akbar, in whom the subjects find their life, is far less than that of kings like Aurangzeb who live on the blood of their people![Source]
