Editing Nagarjun (section)

=== Early life and education ===
Vaidyanath Mishra was born on 11 June 1911 (Jyeshtha Purnima), in the Gram Panchayat Tarauni and Block Benipur in [[Darbhanga District]] of [[Bihar]], India to Uma Devi and Gokul Mishra. He spent most of his days in his mother's village Satlakha of [[Madhubani district]], Bihar. He later converted to [[Buddhism]] and got the name ''Nagarjun''. His mother died when he was only four years old, and his father being a [[vagabond]] himself, couldn't support him so young Vaidyanath thrived on the support of his relatives, and the scholarships he won on the account of him being an exceptional student. Soon he became proficient in [[Sanskrit]], [[Pali]] and [[Prakrit]] languages, which he first learnt locally and later at [[Varanasi]] and [[Calcutta]], where he was also semi-employed, while pursuing his studies. Meanwhile, he married Aparajita Devi and the couple had six children.{{citation needed|date=August 2015}}
