French scholar's pride shattered. It is a matter of those days when Swami Vivekananda, had gone to Chicago city of America to deliver his historic speech. Successfully placing his speech on the stage of the whole world, set out to visit other countries. In this sequence, he became a guest at the house of the famous French scholar. Swami Vivekananda accepted the hospitality of that scholar and reached his house. Swami ji was welcomed in the house with respect. Food was arranged according to Swami ji's interest. It was a privilege to find this type of food abroad. After the meal, debate started on the great works of Vedas, Vedanta and Dharma. In the room where the debate was taking place, a religious book of about one and a half thousand pages was kept on a table. Swami ji looking at that book said - What is this? I want to study it. The French scholar was surprised. He said Swami ji, this is a book of another language, you don't even know the language. How will you be able to study so many pages? I've been studying this on my own for a month! Swamiji - You leave it to me, I will return you after studying within an hour. The French scholar now started getting angry, why is Swami ji making fun of me like this? But Swami ji assured, on this the French scholar arbitrarily handed over that book to Swami ji. Swami ji kept that book in both his hands and sat in yoga meditation for an hour. No sooner had an hour passed than the French scholar entered the room. Swami ji, have you studied the book? Yes of couse ! How are you kidding, I have been studying this book for a month. Haven't studied even half yet, and you say you have studied. Yes of couse! Swamiji you are kidding! No you can open any page and get information from me! That scholar did the same. On speaking page number thirty-two, Swamiji recited each and every word written on that page literally. There was no limit to the surprise of the French scholar. He fell at the feet of Swamiji. That scholar had not seen a person like Swami before today. He was sure, this is not an ordinary person.
