Spiritual travelers like Swami Vivekananda are difficult to find! Even though Swami Vivekananda could have easily gained enlightenment in his lifetime under able preceptorship of Sri Ramakrishna Paramhansa, he refused to do so. Goal of life for Swami Vivekananda always was community service and in that he excelled. It is only for the sake of community he gave his life early. Swami Vivekananda was a truthful person at heart from the beginning of life, a person exemplary!
In 1893 Swami Vivekananda went to West, United States of America with the hope that he would barter spirituality with wealth. It is at this point Swami Vivekananda was wrong. Spirituality could never be sold, no matter what. Despite his brilliant lecture at World Parliament of Religions, Chicago Swami Vivekananda returned empty-handed. The spirituality of India was beyond understanding of Americans. Brokenhearted Swami Vivekananda could not continue for long. He died few years after his return.
