The True Legend-Swami Vivekananda
A spark from heaven travelled on to the earth in 1963!
He was indebted to mother for his knowledge of efflorescence,
Stating “brothers and sisters of America”, he, a speaker of eloquence,
At Parliament of World’s Religions in Chicago with eminence
Introduced Vedanta, Yoga and Hinduism in 1993!
Name and fame, fame and name, Vivekananda is his name.
He was taught by mystic Paramhamsa Ramakrishna
All religious are true to reach heaven's abode, he preached
Service to humans is worship to god he a glory reached
Therefore, Vivekananda started mission Ramakrishna
One touch, one glance, changed his life by the guru, we are told
Name and fame, fame and name, Vivekananda is his name
He pioneered- Upanishads and Vedas for dinner
Bhagavad Gita and Mahabharata and scriptures hollowed;
Ramayana and Puranas are swallowed, he a winner
With prodigious memory, He, a genius in Manifold
“Arise and awake and stop not the goal is achieved” said thee
Name and fame, fame and name, Vivekananda is his name!
Swami is the India's nation-builder foremost,
He is philanthropist of all times with fame utmost;
He is a thinker of all thinkers of his right,
He is a philosopher to Philosophers with rare insight,
A leader of all leaders is he!
Name and fame, fame and name, Vivekananda is his name!
He is a leader of all Leaders as his name inspired,
All, he, a scholars’ scholar with fame, youth aspired;
Yogi to yogis and Perfect Karma yogi and light of the world,
Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King are mystified
Nehru and Tagore, Chandra Bose and Prof. Right are also inspired!
Name and fame, fame and name, Vivekananda is his name!
In East and in West, he is the legends' Legend!
Misery is dependence, Happiness is dependence
He liberated lives all individuals with pity
He Practiced and pioneered the Doctrine of Unity
Pure, simple, sympathy are his words of great sense
Name and fame, fame and name, Vivekananda is his name!
