Ironically, Vivekananda used to emphasise greatly on physical strength and is known for the shocking statement 'Better to play football than read the Gita'. One of the perennial problems that Vivekananda lived with was chronic insomnia and in a letter to Shashi Bhushan Ghosh dated May 29, , he confided "I never in my life could sleep as soon as I got into bed.

The previous year, Vivekananda seemed to have written to his 'dhira mata' Sara Bull from New York complaining about his lack of sleep. I have not slept even one night soundly in New York since I came I wish I could go to the bottom of the sea and have a good, long sleep. It is also known that Vivekananda used to suffer from diabetes like his father and at that time suitable drugs were unavailable.

He narrates that in the summer of , Vivekananda whose real name was Narendranath Dutta had fallen very ill due to overstrain and lack of food. During this period, he also suffered from gallstones, and acute diarrhoea.

Later, during the same summer, he came down with typhoid and problems in the urinary tract. Shankar wonderfully chronicles the various medical problems Swami Vivekananda faced during his stint as a wandering monk in the country and across the world, and why he cut short his journey in Cairo, Egypt, to return to India.

He said he wanted to return to his country to die, to be with his gurubhais," Shankar wrote. The fateful evening of July 4, , Vivekananda passed away following a third heart attack, completing 39 years, five months and 24 days. Share Via.
