Alasinga Perumal
Alasinga Perumal (1865—1909) was a propagator of Vedanta and an ardent supporter of Swami Vivekananda. Born in an orthodox Vaishnavite family at Chikkamagalur of Mysore, he took his education in Madras. After obtaining a B.A. degree in science he started his career as a school teacher.
Around 1890—1891, he got the information of the upcoming Parliament of the World's Religions of 1893. Alasinga and his friends felt this could be a wonderful opportunity for them to present the ideals of Hinduism and Vedanta to the world. In December 1892 Vivekananda went to Madras and when Alasinga and his friends met him, they immediately felt that Vivekananda was the best candidate to represent India in the Parliament. He and his friends worked to collect money for Vivekananda' journey. In August 1893, Vivekananda informed Alasinga from America about the financial troubles he was facing at that time. After receiving this information, Alasinga borrowed 1000 from a merchant, and even sold his wife's gold ornament to collect money for Vivekananda.
In 1896, under the inspiration of Vivekananda, Alasinga started publishing a religious journal ''Brahmavadin''. The journal published till 1914 and then inspired ''Vedanta Kesari''. Alasinga died on 11 May 1909 when he was just forty four years old.
== Early life and education ==
Perumal was born in 1865 as Mandam Chakravarti Alasinga Perumal (shortened to M. C. Alasinga Perumal) to an orthodox Vaishnavite family in Chikkamagalur, in the former state of Mysore (the current state of Karnataka). His nickname was Achinga.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.vivekananda.net/pplheknew/svdisciples/AlasingaPerumal.html )〕 Perumal's father, Chakravarti Narasimhacharya, was a Thenkalai Sri Vaishnavite and an employee of the local municipality office. Due to low wages at this job, Narasimhacharya was unable to sustain his family in Chikkamagalur. In 1870 he came to Madras (now named Chennai) in search of a job and managed to find employment in the Customs Department. Young Alasinga Perumal was sent to Hindu High School first. After completing his school studies from there, he was admitted in Presidency College, Madras, for pre-university courses. He then studied at Madras Christian College. At Madras Christian College, Rev. William Miller, principal of the college at that time, was very much pleased with the studious Alasinga and arranged a scholarship for him. In 1884, he graduated with a B.A. degree in science. He then started pursuing a course in law but could not finish due to the poor financial condition of his family.〔
