In the January of 1962, it was deemed fit that a memorial dedicated to Swamiji must be constructed to commemorate his birth Centenary. Sri Veluyudhan, the president of Haindeva Seva Sangh, took the lead and a committee was formed for the same. A meeting was held which was headed by Sri Ram Krishna Mission and the memorial was affirmed by all. After overcoming a few initial glitches, the marvellous memorial statue was finally approved, and the rest is history.Vivekananda's Rock also holds religious significance to the locals. It is believed that Goddess Devi Kumari blessed the rock while performing austerity. The construction of the memorial is a very sublime combination of various temple building styles from all over the country, which imparts a very serene aura to this place.
