Guest guest Posted August 28, 1999 Report Share Posted August 28, 1999 Today i happened to read one incident frm Swami Vivekananda's life. The words may not be exact (i feel this is true) , pardon n correct me if i express something in wrong way. Swami Vivekanada was suffering from a high fever. The fever was higher than 104 degree Fahreniet. He was burning in the fever and Shree Ramakrishna Paramhansadeva was sitting coolly beside this child of his n was watching him. Swami Vivekananda couldn't tolerate anymore n said these in frustation caused by pain pain. " I am burning in fever n u r not doing anyting " . At that very Ramakrishna Paramhansa said to him why r u telling to me tell it to Maa she will take of it. Feeling a bit down he said that i am trying that too. Again Shree Ramakrishna Paramhansadeva said " when ur words seeking help doesn't move me then how will they reach to the mother " Prayer or Mantraa Japaa has to be done with feelings in one's heart n mind. Without the feelings of love n surrender it is no more then a repetition of words by a mechanical device. Such a Prayer or Mantraa Japaa never bears fruit.
