True Story Of Swami Vivekanand

When Swami Vivekanand was studying law at the University College, London, a white professor, whose last name was Peters, disliked him intensely.
.
One day, Mr. Peters was having lunch at the dining room when vivekananda came along with his tray and sat next to the professor.
.
The professor said, "Mr Vivekanand , you do not understand. A pig and a bird do not sit together to eat."
.
Vivekanandji looked at him as a parent would a rude child and calmly replied, "You do not worry professor. I'll fly away," and he went and sat at another table.
.
Mr. Peters, reddened with rage, decided to take revenge.
.
The next day in Class he posed the following question: "Mr.Vivekanand , if you were walking down the street and found a package, and within was a bag of wisdom and another bag with money, which one would you take ?"
.
Without hesitating, Vivekanandji responded, "The one with the money, of course."
.
Mr. Peters , smiling sarcastically said, "I, in your place, would have taken the wisdom."
.
Swami Vivekanand shrugged and responded, "Each one takes what he doesn't have."
.
Mr. Peters, by this time was fit to be tied. So great was his anger that he wrote on Swami Vivekanand's exam sheet the word "idiot" and gave it to Swami Vivekanand.
.
Vivekanandji took the exam sheet and sat down at his desk trying very hard to remain calm while he contemplated his next move.
.
A few minutes later, Swami Vivekanand got up, went to the professor and told him in a dignified polite tone, "Mr. Peters, you signed the sheet, but you did not give me the grade."
.
