Explanation:
Swami Virajanand, the blind sage of Mathura and the celebrated teacher of Swami Dayanand Saraswati who founded the Arya Samaj, was born in Kartarpur near Jalandhar in the year 1778 in a Brahmin family. At the tender age of five, the boy lost his eyesight from an attack of small pox. Soon thereafter, the boy's father who had initiated him into the rudiments of Sanskrit learning, passed away. Thus, the boy was thrown to the mercy of his elder brother and sister-in-law at very young age. As they did not treat him well, the temperamental Virjanand soon left their home.
His wanderings led him to Rishikesh where he led a life of meditation and austerity for about three years.
