Description: Privation and Hardships of Modern Monk -Swami Vivekananda by Vijayapadma Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Indian spirituality with Western ideas: The life of a traditional monk is full of privation and Swamiji suffered these to the utmost. Worse than his physical suffering, his heart had become so soft and tender that it bled for the physical privation of the masses as he wandered the length and breadth of India. He began to feel like a shameless crow begging of such impoverished people. He experienced disappointment. When he did arrive in Chicago he was at the edge of starvation and was hooted at in the streets because of his unusual dress. He was disrespectfully when he begged for food. After his success, there was ceaseless labor. He endured many hardships during the period when he went around America giving lectures. He had to endure the malice of the missionaries who told lies about him and once even tried to poison him. Swami suffered the defection and betrayal of four close devotees but maintained a charitable attitude towards them. And he faced intense opposition when he returned to India despite his great fame. Despite all this he carried his message with great boldness. "Sectarianism, bigotry, and its horrible descendant, fanaticism, have long possessed this beautiful Earth. They have filled the earth with violence, drenched it often and often with human blood, destroyed civilization, and sent whole nations to despair. Had it not been for these horrible demons, human society would be far more advanced than it is now." These were the words of Swami Vivekananda at The Parliament of Religions in Chicago in 1893, which stand relevant even now. Without doubt, the more we learn about Swami Vivekananda, the more reasons we discover to love him.
