Alasinga Perumal

 The very salt of Swami Vivekananda's Legacy !

 There are few personalities who chose to live a life dedicated to Guru. For some Guru is window for self realisation and for some he becomes the very destiny. Alsinga Perumal is one such soul who chose Swamiji to be his very destiny.

Born in an orthodox Vaishnavite family at Chikkamagalur of Mysore, he took his education in Madras. After obtaining a B.A. degree in science at Madras Christian College ( MCC), he started his career as a school teacher and then as a Head Master at Pachaiyappa School at Madras. Being an ardent follower of sanatana dharma, he and his friends decided to start an organisation for the propogation of Hindu ideals and values. After they set to work in the society, to their utter disappointment they realised either people are too orthodox willing to lead an isolated life. All they wanted was a wrestling match with other sects forgetting the macro picture about what Hinduism stands for.

It was at this moment they got to know that there is going to be a World Parliament of Religions in Chicago.

He and his group of other friends were on a frantic search to find someone who is suitable to represent Hinduism at the World Parliament of Religions. It was that time , they came in contact with Swamiji.

He and his friends worked to collect money for Vivekananda' journey. In August 1893, Vivekananda informed Alasinga from America about the financial troubles he was facing at that time. After receiving this information, Alasinga borrowed ₹ 1000 from a merchant, and even sold his wife's gold ornament to collect money for Vivekananda.

In 1896, under the inspiration of Swamiji, Alasinga started publishing a religious journal Brahmavadin. The journal published until 1914 and then inspired Vedanta Kesari. Alasinga died on 11 May 1909 when he was just forty-four years old.

Swami Nikhilananda

Once a devotee approached Swami Nikhilananda ( a direct disciple of Swami Vivekananda) and said this,

 " Swami ! Tomorrow I have an open heart surgery. Please bless me."

Swami : You will be saved! Don't worry.

Devotee: Then you mean that I won't die. Am I right ?

Swami : No I meant that You will be saved even if you die !
