When Swami Vivekananda went to USA, a lady asked him to marry her.

When Swami asked the lady about what made her ask him such question.The lady replied that she was fascinated by his intellect. She wanted a child of such an intellect. So she asked Swami, whether he could marry her and give a child like him.

He said to that lady, that since she was attracted only by his intellect, there is no problem. “My dear lady, I understand your desire. Marrying and bringing a child in to this world and understanding whether it is intelligent or not takes very long time. More over it is not guaranteed.

Instead, to fulfill your desire immediately, I can suggest a guaranteed way. Take me as your child. You are my mother. Now on Your desire of having a child of my intellect is fulfilled.”

The lady was speechless.
