There are two questions, first Ramanujan, who was a known mathematician, and second Swami Vivekananda. Recently, there was a movie on Ramanujan, but I have read a book he wrote. The book is a lot better than the movie because in a movie lot of things are glamorised. Ramanujan wrote a line in his book. He said that any theory that does not express god is not relevant to me. These are not the exact words, but this was the kind of meaning that I remember. That, anything that does not express god is not useful to me. But it does not mean that whole day he would be chanting the mantras or Devi would talk in his ear that write this or that. He was from South India so his faith in religion was very strong and from the very beginning the western civilization of the view that if you are educated people then you would not believe in these things.
So, people like scientist, mathematicians or doctors say that we don’t believe in these things. There is a certain pride in it that we have figured everything out or we are in the process, but we don’t need an external force to guide our lives.
