Guest guest Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 Dear All, There is an incident in swamiji's life. In the days of dire poverty after passing away of his father one day after a daylong search for job he faints on the roadside. There he says that he gets a wonderful vision and says that deep mystary of the universe was revealed to him. He has told that truth was revealed to him whether god exists and what is the cause of the evil in his creation etc. were solved instantaniously. Is there any discription of what he saw in complete works or any other book published by the order? Hari Om Tat Sat Yours in the lord, Br. Vinayaka.

Saradananda by Swamiji himself. Sw. S. probably did not complete his biography of Sw. V., as he did that of Thakur. There must be his notes, perhaps in Bengali, as yet unpublished or untranslated.

Guest guest Posted November 8, 2005 Report Share Posted November 8, 2005 Dear Vinayaka, The following paragraph is from the Chapter " Training of the Disciple " in Swami Vivekananda's biography by Swami Nikhilanda: " He had been out since morning in a soaking rain in search of employment, having had neither food nor rest for the whole day. That evening he sat down on the porch of a house by the roadside, exhausted. He was in a daze. Thoughts began to flit before his mind, which he could not control. Suddenly he had a strange vision, which lasted almost the whole night. He felt that veil after veil was removed from before his soul, and he understood the reconciliation of God's justice with His mercy. He came to know — but he never told how — that misery could exist in the creation of a compassionate God without impairing His sovereign power or touching man's real self. He understood the meaning of it all and was at peace. Just before daybreak, refreshed both in body and in mind, he returned home. " The entire book is available at www.ramakrishnavivekananda.info Partha Ramakrishna , " Vinayaka N.S. " <vinayaka_ns> wrote: > Dear All, > > ....
