Swami Vivekananda was a great spiritual leader and social reformer of modern India and he was one of the most important figures in the late nineteenth century of India. His work is to be placed within a broad set of assumptions, including the belief that in the India of his milieu, any transformation was to be brought about only through a “Spiritual” door. Vivekananda undoubtedly made a remarkable contribution to the rediscovery of India’s cultural heritage. Within this cultural milieu, his contribution was a potent mixture of traditionalism, a truly insightful reinterpretation of the Vedāntic thought and Hindu heritage in general, and the foreshadowing of the nationalist revival and the subsequent demand for native rule from the perspective of a relocated sense of Indian selfhood. So, Swamiji’s national feeling does not indicate any particular nation or country, it indicates human civilisation in the whole world and also indicates more than this.

In the list of biographies of Swami Vivekananda published by us, we have one which extensively narrates his life, and also one which presents him very briefly. The present book stands midway between these extremes. Herein the readers will find his life described in a short compass, without sacrificing the essential details. This is a masterly presentation of his life from the pen of a scholar of repute. A worthy book for all those who want to study Vivekananda in brief without losing the crucial aspects of his life.
From the publisher.
The Centers of the Order in America, often referred to by such names as Ramakrishna or Vivekananda Centers, or Vedanta Societies, were first organized by Swami Vivekananda for the propagation of the Swami's teachings. Today there are Centers in many of America's major cities, including New York, Boston, Providence, Chicago, St. Louis, Seattle, Portland, San Francisco, Berkeley, Sacramento, and Hollywood. Because of their belief in the underlying truth of all religions, the Centers of the Ramakrishna Order are at the forefront of the Interfaith Movement. (Publisher's comments written by Swami Adiswarananda, Spiritual Leader, Ramakrishna-Vivekananda Center of New York).
Swami Vivekananda (1863 - 1902), a well-known figure in intellectual and religious circles in America during the first decade of the nineteenth century and the first decade of the twentieth, is cherished by an ever increasing number of readers of his books. His genius was revealed to the world at large in the Parliament of Religions held in Chicago in 1893, where he indicated India's rightful place in the spiritual map of the world. The first cultural ambassador of his motherland to the West, and the builder of the spiritual bridge connecting the two hemispheres, Vivekananda dreamt of One World based upon a synthesis of religion and science and a knowledge of the solidarity of mankind. In his utterances the souls of East and West, the one oppressed by the tyranny of society and the other by the dead weight of secularism, found the way to freedom. As Ramakrishna, the teacher, reinterpreted and relived for the modern world the spiritual heritage of India, so Vivekananda, the disciple, anticipates and inspires her potential contribution.
But the Swami's monumental work, for which he will ever be remembered, is The Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna . This complete translation into English from the original Bengali of the Sri Sri Ramakrishna Kathamrita, as recorded by "M," has made the immortal words of this great prophet of the nineteenth century available to countless readers throughout the world. Aldous Huxley was pleased to write a foreword to The Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna , and high praise was given to the book by such notable persons as Thomas Mann and Henry Miller. Time Magazine referred to The Gospel as "One of the world's most extraordinary religious documents."
Swami Vivekananda once spoke of himself as a "condensed India." His life and teachings are of inestimable value to the West for an understanding of the mind of Asia. William James, the Harvard philosopher, called the Swami the "paragon of Vedantists." Max Muller and Paul Deussen, the famous Orientalists of the nineteenth century, held him in genuine respect and affection. "His words," writes Romain Rolland, "are great music, phrases in the style of Beethoven, stirring rhythms like the march of Handel choruses. I cannot touch these sayings of his, scattered as they are through the pages of books, at thirty years' distance, without receiving a thrill through my body like an electric shock. And what shocks, what transports, must have been produced when in burning words they issued from the lips of the hero!''

I don’t know much more about it.
But I think in ancient times many saints are like to wander around the world , means they use memory journey that is very big (I thought more than 1000 loci journey) and when they do meditation they recall their memory journey in mind.
I think swami have a very big memory journey so they can remember 700 pages book in an hour.
But I don’t know how they link the book lines with memory journey so fast. And it is my personal suggestion that they use memory journey because there is no discussion which method they used.
If I have this ability first I completely memorized my school course book. Because we all study almost 6 to 7 books in one year.
Hello Raja,
this is due to his memory power. He had an exceptional memory, maybe even a real ‘photographic’ memory. This could be one evidence that this exists.
search up speed reading techniques and competition, reading at this speed is possible, it is just you have to learn to not have your brain get bored (ie let the eye do what they are good at, following movements).
@user_7e …The English translation:
Vivekananda’s memory power is attributed to his practice of Brahmacharya,which includes total sexual abstinence. Acc to Yogic tradition,the semen(ojas) is most important constituent of the male body.If preserved,the vedic tradition believes,semen gets transforms into spiritual energy which can heighten one’s mental abilities.
Here’s a clip on Vivekananda’s reading style:
If they people have this ability that time take part in memory competition , in how many second they remember the whole words in memory league, how many seconds they take to memorize 80 numbers.
It’s got more to do with Aura. Every object has Aura & the Yogi’s are able to tap into this source. Acc to Patanjali’s Yogasutra,even the human body has 5 sheaths(kosha):
Here’s another interesting clip:
I think you are right.
But if they have to remember such task , in how many seconds they memorize .
All paranormal activities are skeptical unless proven.I am not validating the clips i’ve posted above since I’ve not seen the Swami performing such feat with my own eyes. Also,even the usage of the word “Aura” is not accurate but then thats the best word i could think of since a sanskrit term would not lend much meaning either. But in my humble opinion,the Swami’s feat cant certainly be broken down in terms of words per minute.
He didn’t. I don’t know how dumb someone would have to be to even seriously consider it as a possibility.
so umm, is it perhaps that the male body would spend less energy on making semen because the sack is full, hence we get that energy to our brain instead?
Might be true as hormones are monitored by brain too.
…via the kundalini.
I don’t think it’s possible to memorize, or even read, a 700 page book in an hour. Skimming a 700 page book for an hour is possible though.
I would like to find someone with photographic memory , but I’m pretty sure that it doesn’t exist.
Edit: see also Derren Brown - Library; possible?
It has never been scientifically researched; these conversations are meaningless. Maybe he could memorize entire book, but it would take far more time than 5 seconds per page. For example, there is a lot of evidence that, although Kim Peek really remembered a lot, but far from 98% of everything read. He was caught more than once on errors in digital data. And sometimes he didn’t remember the answer. And I remind you that Peek had verbal adhesion, which means that his memory was of a different nature than ours. The accuracy of von Neumann memorization has also never been scientifically investigated, but I am sure that it did not reach 90%. If a person is not tested in the laboratory, we actually see only the best side of his memory. After all, it is possible to identify shortcomings only with the help of numerous tests. I think. that Vivekananda could have a memory at the level of Professor Alexander Aitken. The mathematician could recall a list of words, numbers, and text almost word for word several decades later. However, there is clear evidence that Aitken did not have a photographic memory. He intuitively used special rhythmic mnemonics, which was based mainly on his musical abilities. You should also remember people with a talent for speed reading. Like for example Evgeniya Alekseenko. Despite the fact that it took her about a second for a book conversation, she could pretty well retell the text. She could not explain the secret of her abilities. It’s just that it’s as if the meaning of all this information flies into her head. Therefore, it should not be ruled out that some people who possessed natural reading abilities, but were able to understand their nature, did not develop their abilities throughout life. Again, I want to pay special attention to Antonio Magliabechi and John von Neumann. Many testimonies indicate that in life they had a terrible memory. So von Neumann constantly forgot where to put his glasses in the house where he lived for more than 15 years. Agree this does not fit with the assumptions of his ideal eidetic memory. Alexander Alekhine deserves the same attention. It took him 4 minutes to remember one and a half pages of the text verbatim. But, as tests for everything that has no logical connection showed, his memory was no better than average. Alekhine was also extremely forgetful in everyday life. Most likely, all these people possessed phenomenal semantic memory, which led to the disruption of ordinary types of memory.
You thoroughly analyzed it Wow! How long did that take?
You hit the nail right on the damn head. There are far too many people in the world of memory AND calculation who claim to have amazing memories and computational skills but they are often never scientifically tested or their claim are overexaggerated. Too many frauds also, like Daniel Tammet, who used to be someone I looked up to because I could relate to him so well.
This is the reason why I joined this forum. I don’t want there to be any doubts about my abilities so I tell everything I can do with actual numbers and stats, for example how long it takes for me to do a certain calculation or how long it takes for me to memorize something but I also tell where my limits are because my memory is not perfect like how I am not fast at memorizing cards because the mix of numbers, symbols and letters throw me off. I have to memorize the symbols seperately from the letters and numbers if I want to be quick with it.
Thanks a lot. I just used abductive thinking. Yes, we can no longer look into the head of von Neumann. But there are many people who have been researched. And psychologists were looking for everything too, photographic memory. And did not find it. Aitken was investigated by Jan Hunter. Alekhine’s memory was explored by Eduord Caperede. Evgenia Alekseenko was tested at the Brain Institute in Moscow. And the result was the same, none of these people had a photographic memory. The search for eidetism is now even customary to compare with the hunt for ghosts. It took 30 years of in-depth research and nearly 70 just searches for the right people. And no one was found. By the way, as for people calculators. Inodi and Diamandi were investigated in the laboratory of Alfred Binet. The results are exactly the same, not in all cases their memory was so good. Also, the results of some neurobiological studies were published recently. As it turned out, birth counters use the hippocampus in computing. Because the hippocampus is responsible for the formation of memories, there is nothing strange that instead of short-term memory, they use a long-term resource. And numbers can keep in mind a surprisingly long time.
Huh! Guess it wasn’t as long as i thought.
I would assume that he didn’t, just as I assume the paper burning is fake. I did see a documentary on the paper burning guy, who of course had to be tracked down in China and who never even talks about his ‘spiritual’ powers. But agreed to this documentary only after much pleading and begging, and after which he dissapeared resuming his secret life.
The claims of the superhuman abilities of these individuals occur in places where belief in the associated mystical powers is high, and critical thinking/questioning is low.
Very similar to claims of yogis and those who believe them, whereby said yogis have gone without food or water for decades. Except, of course, this particular claim is clearly impossible; and yet many still believe.
RUSSIA, April 18, 2013 (Elena Krovvidi,RIR): This week, the Jawaharlal Nehru Cultural Centre at the Indian Embassy in Moscow, the Ramakrishna Society – Vedanta Centre and the Institute of Oriental Studies, Russian Academy of Sciences, jointly commemorated the 150th birth anniversary of Swami Vivekananda. Academics, Indologists and religious leaders speak of the relevance of the great Indian sage’s teachings in modern day Russia. In his opening remarks, India’s Ambassador to Russia, Ajai Malhotra, dwelt upon the contributions made by Swami Vivekananda, one of the most influential spiritual leaders of the 19th/20th centuries. The sage was a social reformer and a great scholar whose teachings influenced many across the globe and continued to do so even today. The Indian ambassador highlighted the message propagated by Swami Vivekananda that “service to God can be rendered by service to mankind.” Other prominent speakers on the occasion were Swami Jyotirupananda, Rostislav Rybakov and Mark Mokulsky who highlighted various aspects of the life and teachings of Swami Vivekananda and their enduring contemporary relevance.
Swami Jyotirupananda, president of the Ramakrishna Mission in Moscow, was the first speaker. He emphasised Vivekananda’s role as a fighter for the rights of the suppressed members of society in India. Jyotirupananda reminded that in India that April 15 – the birth anniversary of Swami Vivekananda – is celebrated not only by holding lectures and functions but also by holding charitable activities.
Mark Mokulsky, Prof. and Dr. of physical and mathematical sciences at the Institute of Molecular Genetics, Russian Academy of Sciences, followed the discussion about Vievakananda by sharing his hypothesis on the connection between spirituality of Vedanta and genetic-molecular science.
Another eminent speaker Rostislav Rybakov, Indologist, Dr. of historical sciences and Director of the Institute of Oriental Studies of the Russian Academy of Sciences in 1994-2009, elaborated about the relevance of Vivekananda’s teachings to the issues Russia has to face in our day. Rybakov maintains that Vivekananda’s philosophy is very much on the agenda for Russia and Russians of the 21st century. Rybakov believes that the only path to follow is to educate children from the youngest age, but not simply educating but imbibing them with moral and ethical values that will lay the foundation for their future view of the world. “The way that we need to go is lengthy, torturous and complex,” Rybakov says. But it is the only possible way.” The finishing stroke of Rybakov’s speech was drowned in enthusiastic applause: “Recently, the French actor Gerard Depardieu has become an honorable citizen of Russia. But, in my view, Swami Vivekananda should become an honorable citizen of Russia, even after his death. We need him very much in our lives today.”

Book is excellent. Nobody can describe a monk as deeply as a monk itself. So biography of Swami vivekananda by Swami Nikhilananda can be considered as Autobiography of Vivekananda. Only thing went wrong is that printed price of this book is 85 Rs. They chared me 169 Rs. (100+69 delivery charge).Almost double of the MRP.
Swami Vivekananda's inspiring personality was well known both in India and in America during the last decade of the nineteenth century and the first decade of the twentieth.
