Swami Vijnanananda once told of an incident which revealed Swamijis superhuman sensibility. Swami Vijnanananda used to stay in the room next to Swamijis at Belur Math. One night he woke up at 2 a.m., came out of his room and was surprised to find Swamiji moving restlessly along the portico. Vijnanananda asked him, Swamiji, why are you not in bed ? Dont you feel sleepy? I was sleeping well, said Swamiji, but suddenly I felt a sort of shock and woke up. I am sure there has been an accident somewhere in the world and that many people must have lost their lives. Swami Vijnanananda did not take Swamijis words seriously at first. It seemed incredible to him that Swamiji while lying on his bed could have become aware of a far off occurrence. But to his amazement, he read in the newspaper the next morning that many people were killed in a volcanic eruption near Fiji. The eruption had occurred at the exact moment when Swamiji had received that shock.
