The baby Margaret was sent to her grandmother's village home. He was there for about four years. Margaret gradually grew up in the solitude of free nature. By then, Samuel had settled in Manchester. This time they took Margaret to them. Margaret already has a sister. Margaret did not like the crowded environment of Manchester. A few days later, Samuel left the coalfield and moved to the small village of Torrent. Margaret's mind was filled with joy in the open environment of the village. From an early age he was slow, calm, and devoted to religion. Samuel died suddenly. Helpless, Mary went to her father's house with her two daughters and son. Here Margaret was admitted to a local school. Collins Margaret, the school's headmistress, was soon impressed by his extraordinary talent.

His writings began to be published in various newspapers and magazines. Within a few days, her reputation as a writer spread. The life of a teacher and writer was not for Margaret. All his heart longed for Ireland, his homeland. Two secret centers of the Irish Revolution were established in London. Margaret joined there. But he could not feel satisfied with anything. Sometimes it seemed like the real truth of life? His inquisitive heart could not find an answer to this question. Just then, in 1895, Swami Vivekananda came to England from America, flying the victory flag of Hinduism at the Chicago Congregation.
Swamiji came to London and received hospitality at Mr. Sturdy's house. From here he started preaching his Vedanta. There was a crowd of wise people to listen to his speech. One day in the month of November, 1895.
A teacher named Ebenzer Kuku told Margaret, "A monk has come from India. We will go and listen to his speech." Will you go with us As a child, Margaret remembered an old priest telling her, "One day your call will come from India." But did that call come? Yet he did not feel much interest. He had no idea about India. Out of curiosity, one day he went to listen to the lecture. As soon as Margaret entered the room, she saw Swamiji sitting in a seat, meditating. A wonderful Sushma has appeared on all his faces. After a while, Swamiji started his speech. What a sweet voice. His every word emanated from deep wisdom, knowledge, and love. Margaret felt that this was a new experience for her. Although Margaret was fascinated at first sight by Swamiji, she did not surrender to Swamiji's thoughts and arguments.
But in an invisible attraction, he would repeatedly run to 56 Swamiji. Margaret used to go and sit first wherever Swamiji used to give lectures. A few days later, Swamiji returned to America. But a new light shone in Margaret's heart. He had never heard of religion with such deep self-confidence as Swamiji.Margaret thought that perhaps she would find the answer to all her questions in that Indian monk. Margaret began an in-depth study of Indian philosophy, religion, and culture in order to gain a deeper understanding of Swamiji's thought and advice. Read Vedas, Upanishads, Gita, Ramayana, Mahabharata. Swamiji returned to London in April 1897. There his followers organized a lecture. Swamiji started giving regular lectures on various issues of religion. Margaret came every day, listening intently to his every word. Whenever any question or doubt arises in the mind, without hesitation, many get annoyed. But Margaret said, "I can't accept what my heart does not allow."
Swamiji was happy to answer Margaret's every question. "No one should accept anything without judgment," he said. Margaret raised all the questions of her mind to Swamiji. Swamiji answered every question easily. Margaret understands that this is the man whose call has been heard in her heart for so long. Overcoming all hesitation, Margaret spoke to Swamiji about her own mind. Swamiji also felt the latent power within Margaret. He wrote in a letter (June 7, 1897) - You have the power to stir up the world. What we need now is a brave worker rather than a brave speaker. O great soul, wake up, wake up, the world is burning with pain, what a sleep you have! Swamiji said, "I want to do something for the welfare of Indian women." Will you be my partner Margaret gladly agreed to Swamiji's call. Swamiji left England. Margaret wanted to be Swamiji's companion. But Swamiji said it was not his time yet. Swamiji returned to India. The Ramakrishna Mission was established on May 1, 1896 with the tireless efforts of Swamiji. Swamiji kept in touch with Margaret even during Prachanda.
Margaret's heart was pounding when her call would come from India. Finally Swamiji wrote in a letter to Margaret, - You cannot imagine how terrible the misery, superstition, slavery of this country is. When you come to this country, you will find yourself surrounded by countless half-naked men and women. They avoid whites out of fear and hatred and they also hate them intensely. On the other hand, the world-wise Shatak 57 whites will think you are scattered, they will look at your every move with suspicion .......... If you dare to take action in spite of all this, then of course I greet you a hundred times. Margaret was overwhelmed when she read the letter. Swamiji called him. Margaret set sail for India from the familiar world. On 26 January 1896, Margaret's ship arrived at the port of Calcutta. Swamiji welcomed the Irish duhita. His place of residence was fixed.

No one understands anyone's language. But with unadulterated simplicity, Margaret was drawn to her mother. All doubts in Swamiji's mind disappeared. There are no more obstacles when the mother adopts Margaret. Swamiji said to Margaret - I will initiate you in the vow of celibacy. March 25, 1896, was one of the happiest days of Margaret's life. Swamiji initiated Margaret by organizing a puja at the Thakurghar of Belur Math. He said - this life is not yours - this life belongs to God. By His will your life will be dedicated to the good of the world. Nivedita gave Margaret a new name. From then on he used to sign his name Nivedita of Ramakrishna Sangh.
After Swamiji's death, he became directly involved in the political movement and had to sever all ties with the Ramakrishna Mission. From then on he used to write "Ramakrishna's Vivekananda's Nivedita". Swamiji's health deteriorated due to overwork and he was taken to Darjeeling. Nivedita remained in Calcutta to fulfill the duties given to her by Swamiji. Suddenly a plague appeared in Calcutta. Its terrible plague spread like an epidemic. Many people died. People started leaving Kolkata in groups. Hearing the news of the plague, Swamiji rushed to Calcutta. He jumped on Nivedita to help the people.

Swamiji used to say that India would wake up only if women woke up. Women's liberation will happen in the light of education. With Swamiji's blessings, Nivedita established a girls' school in Bagbazar. No one dares to send their daughters to a school founded by a foreign woman. Everyone is afraid if the girls become Christians. With great difficulty three students were collected. Nivedita started reading school with them. The number of students increased in a short time due to his kind behavior and education.
Apart from the students, he also taught patriotism among the young community of the country. He wanted to inspire them with the Samuhan ideology of traditional India.

But Nivedita's life is dedicated to the welfare of the people of this country. In a state of anguish, he severed all ties with Belur Math. During this time Satish Chandra Mukherjee founded the Dawn Society. Within a few days, this society became the center of learning for young revolutionaries. Occasionally Nivedita would attend meetings of the Society and give lectures, writing in their newspapers. Gokhel writes about Nivedita, the way he has integrated India with his life cannot be expressed in words.

The fire of revolution was burning in the air in the sky of Bengal then. Shri Arvind was writing the message of yoga and action in 'Karmayogin' magazine. The anger of the police came on Shri Arvind.
