Question

Swami Vivekanand was known as Vireshwar or Narendranath Datta. He was born in

Calcutta on 12th January, 1863 on Makar Sankranti Day. His mother was a very pious

lady. She dreamt that Lord Siva would be born as her child. Later when the child was

born, the mother fondly named him as Vireshwar.Narendra had the habit of giving alms to the needy especially the monks. There were

incidents when he had to be locked up in a room by his parents to prevent him from

giving away things or money to beggars or needy. Still —he would manage to drop things

through the window to help the beggars.

Naren was very naughty and temperamental by nature. When he became intolerable, his

mother would pour —cold water on His head and utter Siva, Siva. Surprisingly that

would calm the little Naren.

Naren was a born Yogi and and an expert at meditation. His power of concentration was

very high. One day - when Naren was doing meditation, a cobra crawled over his body,

but he was unaware of the happening. He was deeply lost in his meditation.
