I donot mean to disrespect swami
vivekananda, but there is at least one issue
that bothers me, and that , being a smoker myself
cannot understand is that swamiji could not quit his
chain-smoking habit that he picked up as a young boy

discipline and control.
It even went to the point of killing him. As many
may know he died at a young age of throat and
lung cancer.
