I AM THE SON OF MY FATHER, THE "SUPREME FATHER" OF ALL CREATIONS...!

I HAVE NO REASON TO ACCEPT FATHERS OF NATIONS BUT I MUST RECOGNIZE MY BIOLOGICAL FATHER BECAUSE HE WAS THE BIOLOGICAL REASON FOR MY BIRTH...!!! MOTHER AND FATHER ARE JUST BIOLOGICAL REASONS, NOT IMMORTAL OWNERS OF OUR MIND AND SOULS. BUT OUR MORTAL BODY BELONGS TO OUR WORLDLY PARENTS...!! WE LOVE OUR PARENTS FOR A LIMITED PERIOD AND THEN WE HAVE TO DETACH THE TEMPORARY BONDAGE TO ATTACH PERMANENTLY WITH THE SUPREME FATHER , THE SOUL OF COSMOS...!!!

SWAMI .VIVEKANANDA WAS A SON OF A WEALTHIEST FATHER AND HIS FATHER WAS ATTACHED TO MATERIALISM AND MATERIAL CREDENTIALS ! THE FAMILY WAS WEALTHY, BUT THE WEALTHY FAMILY LOST ITS IMMENSE WEALTH AND BECAME PAUPER....!!! AT THAT TIME SWAMIJI WAS A GRADUATE OF TOP RANK, AND HE HAD TO FIND JOB AND MONEY TO SAVE HIS SHATTERED FAMILY FROM UTTER PITIFUL SITUATION ..?

SO , THE YOUNG AND BRILLIANT VIVEKANANDA(NARENDRA NATH DUTTA) APPROACHED HIS SPIRITUAL GUIDE, AND DESPERATELY REQUESTED HIS HELP...! THE SPIRITUAL MASTER ADVISED HIM TO VISIT A TEMPLE OF GODDESS KALI, AND PRAY FOR WEALTH...!!! SWAMIJI RUSHED TO THE KALI TEMPLE TO PRAY FOR MONEY TO SAVE HIS FAMILY FROM DISHONOUR AND DESTITUTION . SWAMIJI CLOSED HIS EYES TO PRAY FOR WEALTH BUT HE COULD NOT UTTER A SINGLE WORD FOR MONEY ...!!! THERE HAPPENED A GREAT DRAMATIC IRONY ...!! THE MAN WHO WAS IN EXTREME NEED OF MONEY JUST FORGOT HIS EXTREME NEED OF MONEY, BUT PRAYED FOR ULTIMATE KNOWLEDGE...?THE TRUTH OF COSMOS AND THE TRUTH OF LIFE AND DEATH, AND THE TRANSCENDENTAL EXPERIENCE...!!!

WHY DID SWAMIJI FORGET HIS PARENTS AND THE MOST PITIFUL  STATE OF HIS ONCE WEALTHIEST FAMILY...?? I HAVE NO ANSWER TILL NOW, THOUGH I HAVE BEEN SEARCHING FOR A SATISFIABLE ANSWER FOR MANY YEARS ....!!

I IMAGINE THAT SWAMIJI MUST HAVE DISCOVERED HIS SPIRITUAL IDENTITY THAT HE MUST HAVE EXPERIENCED AS THE IMMORTAL IMAGE OF COSMIC LIGHT...?

I RECOMMEND THE BIOGRAPHY OF SWAMI .VIVEKANANDA  FOR ALL YOUNGSTERS.

HELP SEEKERS AND BEGGARS ARE ALMOST SAME ..! BETTER IS FIGHT TO DEATH..!

SWAMI .VIVEKANDA , REACHED AT KANYKUMARI , AND HE WAS MESMERISED BY THE OVERWHELMING, TRANSCENDENTAL AMBIENCE OF THE SUN SET TIME, AT THE LAST POINT OF THE FAR SOUTH  OF INDIA.HE LOOKED AT THE HORIZON AND FOUND THE KALI ROCKS ,ABOUT TWO FURLONGS AWAY FROM THE SHORE..! HIS ZEST WAS OUT OF CONTROL FOR IMMEDIATE REACH AT THE ROCKS, THE LAST ROCKS OF HINDUSTAN...!



SWAMIJI , REQUESTED-NOT BEGGED- TO THE FISHER MEN WHO HAD BOATS AND PERFECT EXPERIENCES WITH ALL WEATHER CONDITIONS AND VARIOUS MOODS OF THE UNPREDICTABLE SEAS..! BUT, SWAMIJI HAD NO MONEY TO PAY THAT THE FISHERMEN DEMANDED ..! SO,HE GOT THE HUMILIATING "NO..!" AS FRIENDLY RESPONSE ..!?

THEN HE DID'T "BEG" OR PLEAD FURTHER FOR "HELP" BUT DIVED IN TO THE MURDEROUS WAVES AND DISAPPEARED ..! THE FISHER MEN WENT AGHAST AND SHOCKED BY THIS DARE DEVIL ATTEMPT OF A SANYASI AND THEY JUDGED TO EACH OTHER THAT THIS SWAMI WAS "LUNATIC"AND JUMPED IN TO DEEP SEA TO MEET DEATH AND THEY WAITED TO SEE HIS DEAD BODY FLOATING..! BUT NO ONE SIGHTED WHAT THEY EXPECTED..! SO,THEY FELL BACK WITH A SAD CONCLUSION THAT "THE FEROCIOUS KILLER SHARKS " MUST HAVE FINISHED HIS FLESH AND EVEN BONES..!

IN THE NEXT MORNING, THE SAME FISHER MEN RUSHED TO THE KALI ROCKS IN SEARCH OF SOME PIECES OF THE DEAD BODY OF THE MAD SANYASI , BUT THEY FOUND THE MAD GURU SITTING ATOP OF THE ROCK, IN DEEP MEDITATION...! THEY TOOK TIME TO BELIEVE IT ..! THEY THOUGHT IT WAS THE GHOST OF THE MAD GURU..! BECAUSE THEY RECEIVED  NO RESPONSE FROM THE MEDITATING GHOST OF THE SWAMI..!THEY VISITED THE ROCKS REGULARLY AND THE NEWS SPREAD LIKE WILD FIRE ..!ON THE THIRD DAY , THE FISHERMEN FOUND THE GHOST STANDING AND MOVING ALONG..!

THIS IS A BEST EXAMPLE TO UNDERSTAND THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE WORDS "HELP","BEGGING",AND"REQUEST". SWAMIJI, NEITHER SOUGHT HELP NOR BEGGED BUT REQUESTED..! WE ARE ALLOWED TO MAKE A REQUEST BUT NO TO BEGGING OR BEGGING FOR HELP BUT ONLY REQUEST..!
