Swamiji passed away in 1902 at the age of 39. At Belur Math it was 9:10 pm. At that time there was no electricity in Belur Math or its surrounding villages. But there was facility of telephone☎️, still no news channel came!
Even the next day no news of Vivekananda's death was published in any news paper of United Bengal, not even a single state leader or any famous Bengali mourned.
Can you imagine???
Swami Vivekananda has received many insults and neglects in his short life and has been ignored again and again. After the death of his father, he had to go to court due to his relatives were against him . He has appeared in the court several times.
In the family of desparetly poor, he used to get up in the morning & go around the Office-Mohalla looking for a job. Day after day, he told his mother that he will go to friend's house tonight to eat,he also used to see for days that there is no rice,pulse,salt,oil in family but
how will meals of brothers & sisters be gathered?
Borrowing money from grocery store for meals for mother, he used to told his mother not to cook for him because he has invitation at his friend's house... but that was a lie.
Narendranath used to be half-fed & hungry!
He has dragged his whole life into extreme poverty. At the age of 23, he got a job as a teacher of metropolitan school, whose founder was VidyaSagar & H.M was his son-in-law. The son-in-law did not like Narendranath.
He told his father-in-law that for the crime of bad teachings,he drove Narendranath out of the school. "Narendranath"; whose knowledge, intellect,wisdom is indisputable, even that time also.
Again Vivekananda became unemployed.
A Bengali guru preached in abroad about Vivekananda that he is a complete hypocrite & gambler & has several wives & 10/12 children. In our country & abroad, he used to be half-starved or starved day after day.
He wrote in later:
"Several times I starved day after day, I thought I might die today... Stood up saying jai brahmo... I said I have no fear no death no hunger, I am without thirst. What power in the world that destroy me?"
When sick vivekananda came to to Calcutta after conquering the world many famous Bengali (names remain unspoken here) did not agree to give him reception party or rejected to come in his reception meeting.
At last even though PariChand Mitra agreed to came but he said that Vivekananda is not a Brahmin but a Kaiyet, so he cannot be a monk. I will address him on the stage as brother Vivekananda.
Americans overwhelmed by reading his speech & words in foreign paper & what we did!
In the October of same year Swamiji goes to Dr Rasiklal for medical checkup (chamber-2 sadar Street side Street of Calcutta museum) and Dr. took 40/- for visit and 10/- for medicine from patient Vivekananda. It means, according to 2021's calculation, total 16000/- (approx) taken from the world conquering poor monk suffering from several disease. Swami Brahmananda give this money to famous Bengali(!) Dr Rasiklal, from the fund raised for Belur Moth.
There is more....!!!
There is no death pictures of Vivekananda, Even no death certificates issued for this great monk but Bally Belur municipality exist at the time & this municipality imposed amusement tax on Belur Moth.
It was said that the Belur Moth is gossip centre/resort of boys and common man used to call Belur Moth mocking Vivekananda..."Vichitra Anand Dham" or "Biwi Ka Anand Dham" (amusement resort with women/brides). This was the attitude/mentality of so-called bhadralok Bengali at the time.
That's why, in his last time he says, "Only another Vivekananda will understand what this Vivekananda did."
