When Swami Vivekananda went on a historic tour of America in 1893, he was to deliver lectures at several places after the Chicago Parliament of Religions. Vivekananda’s followers wished that a stenographer could record the lectures. The problem was that the steno that could record at the speed with which Vivekananda spoke was not available. Friends of Vivekananda entrusted this responsibility to reporter JJ Goodwin in court. Although Goodwin was very expensive at that time, but now history is that if not Goodwin, most words of Vivekananda would have been lost.

What Goodwin once associated with Vivekananda, he remained tied forever. Not only America, after that Vivekananda remained with him wherever he went in the world. Ooty in India was finally made his home by Goodwin, whose 150th birth anniversary was celebrated on 12 January along with Swami Vivekananda Jayanti. Although his date of birth is 20 September, Ramakrishna Math could not celebrate it last year due to Corona. It was important to note Vivekananda’s lectures and to keep them safe by typing them and the life of Goodwin, who sent them to newspapers.

How did Goodwin join Vivekananda?A 25-year-old Goodwin advertisement in the New York newspapers saw that the Vedanta Society wanted a stenographer to note Vivekananda’s lectures. John Josiah Goodwin inherited this art from his father Josiah, and he could record and type things quickly. Through this advertisement, Goodwin came in contact with Swami Vivekananda, working as a journalist in the court.

Initially it was Gu Dwin’s work to send Vivekananda’s lectures by notes and typing to newspapers and to Kolkata, the magazine that was published from Calcutta at that time. After this, Goodwin remained with Vivekananda for the next two to two and a half years.

Goodwin’s coming to India and passing
In 1897, Swami Vivekananda reached India after traveling to many parts of the world. Goodwin also accompanied him to Madras with many followers. After traveling with Vivekananda for some time in North India, after returning to Madras, troubled by the heat, Goodwin thought it better to go to Ooty. It is said that after January 1898, Goodwin and Vivekananda could never meet.

Goodwin’s health could not withstand the heat of Madras even after going to Ooty. Being sick, he died on 2 June 1898 at the age of just 27. On his death, Vivekananda uttered such words:

quote img Stenographer who would not have lost Swami Vivekananda's memorable speech Stenographer who would not have lost Swami Vivekananda's memorable speechI will never be able to repay his loan. If anyone feels that he has been helped by any of my words, then let me tell you that Goodwin’s untiring and selfless work was behind him. I lost a friend who was strong like steel, completely devoted and did not know the word fatigue… There are few great people in the world who live only for others.

Journey of Goodwin aka Badwin and Vivekananda
Since Goodwin also loved gambling with cricket and football, so Vivekananda used to call him Badwin as well. The two had a good friendship but Goodwin’s dedication was never short. After the Religion Parliament of Chicago, Vivekananda was to visit all over America and give lectures in many places. In 1895, Goodwin joined him as a steno and continued to record Vivekananda’s lectures throughout America.

Sarah Bull, an American writer and famous follower of Vivekananda, described Goodwin as Vivekananda’s most important ally. After America, Goodwin also accompanied Vivekananda on his tour of England in 1896. Finally, it was Gu Dwin who reached India, who had reported to the world how Vivekananda was welcomed with great enthusiasm in India.

When Vivekananda reached Calcutta, the famous Bengali writer Sharat Chandra also met him. Later, when Sharatchandra wrote ‘Diary of a follower’, he also mentioned Goodwin in it. In 1897, Goodwin became a Brahmachari by recording Vivekananda’s lectures from Colombo to Almora in short hand recording Madras.
