WHERE'S THE BAN?
WHERE'S THE BAN?
Private schools can teach Hinduism, I guess. There is no ban on it. The Constitution prohibits religious instruction in fully State-funded educational institutions as per Draft Article 22 (Article 28 of the Constitution of India, 1950) which was debated in the Constituent Assembly on 7 December, 1948. So, it is up to the Hindus to open schools where Hindu scriptures will be taught. If Hindus privately do not take the initiative of teaching Hinduism to children and instead keep blaming the Government for not allowing Hindu religious education in fully State-funded academic institutions, they will be failing in their duty to Dharma. Self-help in such a case is the best help.

PROBLEMS FACED BY TODAY'S HINDUS
PROBLEMS FACED BY TODAY'S HINDUS
Hindus in India today face multiple problems. They are as follows:
1) Upper class Hindu population is declining rapidly.
2) Emigration of upper class highly educated Hindus is alarmingly on the rise.
3) Conversely, Muslim population is increasing rapidly which is shifting the demographic balance alarmingly. This because Islam is bent upon the destruction of all other religions, especially, Hinduism which in its view commits the unpardonable offence of 'shirk' which is partnering Allah who Islam deems to be the only God.
4) A very large number of Hindu Gurus have taken to commerce in the name of religion, duping devotees with sweet talk, unpractised principles, magic mongering and dubious 'yogic' methods.
5) Islam and Christianity are aggressively converting and perverting vulnerable sections of the Hindu population, thereby threatening the age-old civilisational character of the country.
6) A handful of the super-rich are holding in the palm of their hands an inordinately large proportion of the country's wealth. This economic disparity is weakening the Hindu masses who ought to be the real strength of the population.
7) Proliferation of the commercial culture with its consequent effect in film-making and advertising is ruining the general character of the people, especially the urban educated class who are by the day becoming superficial, unethical, greedy and devoid of adequate strength of character.
8) The administrative abuse of secularism by suppressing Hindu interests while protecting minority rights has really weakened the Hindus ever since Independence.
9) The removal of Sanskrit study at the school level over the last five decades has delinked Hindu children from their dharmic roots. They have grown up as aliens to their own culture in the spiritual sense with association being maintained only in the superficial sense of festivities during puja time like the bursting of crackers and the burning of fireworks during Deepavali, the spraying of colours during Holi etc.
10) Hindu parents are themselves ignorant of the Sanatan scriptures for some of the above reasons and, thus, in turn totally neglect the spiritual education of their children.
11) Hindu spiritual organisations of the highest repute are today running madly after money, although taking care to camouflage commercial intent by pious pretensions.
12) Absence of the martial culture among large sections of the population is making Hindus timid. A completely vegetarian diet by an estimated 70% of the Hindu population is not helping matters in making their muscles stronger and their minds more courageous to tackle the enemy fearlessly.
13) Absence of spiritual leadership today has the general mass of Hindus rudderless and easy victim to charlatans preaching religion.
14) Minority appeasement by the political parties to secure their vote banks is helping them to strengthen their ranks for debilitating the fabric of Hinduism and the Hindus.
15) A general cowardice has come upon the Hindu masses, a hypocrisy among the educated, a posturing of strength and patriotism which is devoid of character, conviction or truth. There is a general ignorance, even apathy among the aware about the fate of the Hindus in the future. People are content to chase sense pleasures if they are moneyed. If not, they are busy struggling for their bread. No one has time or energy to spare for the defence of the Dharma.
16) The all-embracing character of the Hindus makes them believe that Islam and Christianity are also the same. Thus, they misread the proselytising intent of these very aggressive Abrahamic religions to their own downfall.
17) The extreme democracy of Hindu worship does not allow Hindus to unite under a common banner. This is why Hindus lack in solidarity. Unity is a must if civilisational survival is to be achieved. Here Hindus are woefully short.
18) The Ramakrishna Mission does nothing to preach Swami Vivekananda widely and effectively, neither does the Government adopt measures to spread his message.
19) An organisation like ISKCON despite its commendable global work in propagating Hinduism is largely sectarian and engaged in proving the superiority of Shree Krishna over other gods and goddesses including Bhagavān Shiv and Mā Kāli. This divides the Hindus.
20) Casteism has divided and debilitated the Hindu community. Instead of attribute-based Varna distinction and profession-based Jāti distinction, birth-based such distinctions are neither scripturally sanctioned nor wholesome in any way. Hindus must en masse unite under the banner of Advaita Vedanta in all its philosophical profundity and pluralistic practical catholicity.
21) The 🕉 must be made the common unifying spiritual symbol for all Hindus consciously, for it has already been there for ages scripturally.

VIBRATION THAT IS LIFE
VIBRATION THAT IS LIFE
Vibration is life. Vibration transforms personality. Sāttvik vibrations are the core content of spirituality. They transform society. The fallen are lifted as God descends into human clay to raise the collective consciousness of humanity. This is the purpose of the descent, this the mission of the Divine. The Avatar in his boundless mercy becomes one of us to redeem us. His love is of pure sattva and is the solvent for our hardened crust-consciousness which dissolves at its benign touch. The resolution thus reached is the evolved spiritual current that directs humanity along the divine channel, plumbing spiritual depths hitherto forgotten, now rediscovered and traversed in. The Avatar's work is subtle and acts in the subliminal consciousness of man, effecting changes that are unseen, yet whose myriad manifestations in the diverse walks of life usher in a new age. And all this is vibrational transformation, the sattva acting on rajas and tamas to resolve the rise unto higher heights, deeper depths. Such is the path of 'Yugadharmasangsthāpan', the establishment of the spiritual-ethical code of the Age. It is vibration all the way. 🕉

Photo: This is a painting, I believe, by an artist post the passage of Paramahamsadev from the earthly plane, perhaps decades after. The prostrate form is of Bhakta Rasik, the scavenger devotee of Si Ramakrishna who lived near the precincts of the Dakshineshwar Kali Temple, at whose house in the depths of the nightly hour the young Ramakrishna, then borne on the high current of spiritual fervour, surreptitiously stole into to clean up the latrine and wipe off the water sprayed with his long matted hair to do away with the least vestige of spiritual pride born of higher birth as a brāhman. This went on night after night till the young aspirant, now shorn of unevenness of bearing, stood tall on the golden mean of life where all rise and fall have resolved unto perennial equilibrium, the origin of life where coordinates have sunk into nothingness. The Master had arrived but the 'myathor' (sweeper) had not been redeemed as yet. Rasik, sweeping the temple precincts, observed devotees, mendicant monks, pilgrims and people of diverse persuasions vist the Master and seek his blessings. But he, low-born as he was in those days of caste-ridden consciousness, lowly employed as he was in those days of socially stratified vocations, dared not to seek the Master's divine grace till it fell upon him one fateful day, when the environs were free of human traffic that could intervene, to dive at those hallowed feet when the divine one was returning from his haunt in Panchavati. Instantly the young Avatar passed into ecstacy and blessed Rasik with prospective spiritual vision in the final hours of his life, a prophecy which came to fulfil as Rasik ascended the heavenly stairs with the Master, then long gone from his earthly abode, but in the vesper hour of his life right beside his bed. The first meet was here at Panchavati with the devotee at the feet of the Divine. The next was in perennial union of the twain in the twilight of the sweeper's life when earthly aught had all been swept away in one final grace of the One who never leaves His devotee alone, never, never forsakes the one who has surrendered at His feet as Rasik has here done. This divine moment has been captured in the artist's imagination thus and portrayed before us all as 'a thing of beauty' which 'is a joy forever.' Jai Ramakrishna! Jai Bhakta Rasik! 🕉
SWAMIJI AND NETAJI ... 1
SWAMIJI AND NETAJI ... 1
If ever there was a follower of Swamiji, it was Netaji. He carried out to the hilt every word of Swamiji within the tremendous constraints of his political life. Perhaps, he was not a Vedantist in the truest sense of the term but he surely was sort of a practical Vedantist by default, a patriot peerless and a moral man who could serve as inspiration for generations of lay people.
Netaji's love for the motherland was next to none. He approximated Swamiji in this respect, although their spheres of activity were in different planes, Swamiji working out India's overall destiny at the spiritual plane and Netaji shaping India's political destiny at the temporal plane. Both worked their hearts, minds and souls out to help recover India from her precipitated state. In the process both sacrificed their entire lives at the altar of the motherland's freedom.
Swamiji's was the Herculean task of singlehandedly discovering the essence of the Sanatan Dharma, translating it into simple, globally intelligible terms, yet rationally tenable in a world of emerging scepticism about things spiritual, and presenting it to the world with power and force so as not only to carry the day but to so alter the thought-current of the world as to significantly shift its basis from the material unto the spiritual, an achievement, if not so discernible now, which nonetheless will surely fructify in tangible terms in the long run, such was his prophetic power. How far he succeeded in his mission is for subtle eyes to detect, decipher and determine. Netaji's, on the other hand, was the seemingly impossible task of dislodging the entrenched imperial-colonial rule of Britain from India. How far Netaji succeeded in his mission is duly chronicled but scarce recognised. It is for his countrymen of head and heart alive to comprehend it.

COMMENTS GALORE ... 69
Sugata Bose @Jayanti Rakshit : Swamiji had said that the whole of India must follow one religion and that by implication is the Sanatan Dharma. That the Constitution deems it otherwise is a reality today with its perceived effects.
Sugata Bose @John Embrey : Swamiji included all dharma traditions including Jainism and Buddhism within the ambit of the Sanatan Dharma for they were all derived from the root which is the Sanatan Dharma. I, in agreement with Swamiji's view, therefore, do the same.
Sugata Bose @Sanjeev Shrivastava : You are highly humorous and inordinately creative in cracking your subtle jokes spread out in delectable diction.
Sugata Bose @Utpal Aich : Beautiful portrayal. So clear, so concise and, overall, so immensely moving. A worthy tribute to one of Bhārat Mātā's mightiest children, one of her dearest daughters. 🕉
Sugata Bose @Kapil Patil : So, what is your suggestion, your modus operandi for the protection of Hindus?
Sugata Bose @Jayanta Baksi : I am doing my utmost. You join hands. United we can achieve wonders. Propagate the message of Hindu regeneration boldly, vigorously. Study Ramakrishna-Vivekananda literature and spread the message. 🕉 Hindu!
Sugata Bose @Debaprasad Bhattacharya : They cannot if they are true Muslims. De-Arabisation would imply de-Islamisation as well. The two are intimately linked.
Sugata Bose @Santanu Sen : There is nothing called Sanātani Musalmān. Islam does not subscribe to it. It is a blatant lie being uttered in the name of either ignorance of Islam's tenets or by way of practising Al Taqqiah, the art of deception to hide inner impulse, motivation and movement in the direction of prospective Islamisation of the Dar-ul-Harb which Bharatvarsha patently is. If these Muslims are really sincere about their Sanatan roots, let them revert to the Sanatan Dharma instead of such verbal affirmation which at best is born out of ignorance of the core content of Islam or at worst the fraternal facade of the 'faithful' who are by scriptural injunction forbidden to associate with the kafir among which the Hindu tops the list of the ones to be loathed. 🕉 Hindu!
Sugata Bose @Debaprasad Bhattacharya : Politicians are selling the country, o5ur beloved motherland, to alien intrusion. It then becomes bounden on us to resist this perfidious programme with all our might as Guru Gobind Singhji has taught us.
Sugata Bose @Swami Nikhileswarananda : Fight for the persecuted Bangladeshi Hindus. Maharaj, preach in a more manly manner that the audience gets a glimpse of Swamiji in his words given utterance by your holiness. 🕉 Hindu!
Sugata Bose @Yogasharan V S Prakash : The one who knows how to give a full stop at the right place without making undue spatial allowance for the respiration of words and terminates a sentence duly knows how to be grammatically correct fully.
Sugata Bose @Akhil Ray : Copy pasted my post straight from my profile without acknowledgement? You could have shared it instead.
https://www.facebook.com/share/p/aXtnKN4sPMEYdiMT/?mibextid=oFDknk
Sugata Bose @Prakash Gupta But Islam is dreadfully spreading elsewhere, especially in India where politicians are actively helping in its proliferation. Demography is altering alarmingly in provincial pockets and precipitating the same situation as existed in undivided India exactly a century ago with Bengal and Kerala leading the charge. History is repeating itself amidst apparently altered circumstance but with the same ideological toxicity that is yet again taking its vicious turn following original principles. Perfidy is now the protected child of medieval moorings. Will India live? With Sanatan civilisation survive? 🕉 Hindu!
Sugata Bose @DrMrityunjoy Mahato Not at all. Every Hindu must be raised to brāhmanhood, so said Swamiji. He averred along the line of the great Acharya Shankar that Brāhmanhood is the ideal of the race. The shudra is to be raised unto the spiritual plane of the brāhman and not the other way round which is now being attempted, that of degrading the brāhman perforce to the level of the shudra. The Varnāshram Dharma has been affirmed by no less an authority than Bhagavān Shree Krishna in the Shrimadbhagavadgeetā. All our Avatārs and Āchārya have accepted heartily this ancient system of societal material-spiritual functioning whose aim and end is to raise 'the animal unto man and man unto God' (Vivekananda). Hence, it is puerile to pass such a judgment against brāhmanism which is the crest-jewel of our civilisation. Privilege must be rooted out and it has been Constitutionally done since 26 January, 1950. Its due implementation will create the perfect platform for the best furtherance of this evolutionary culture, that of raising all Sanātanis to brāhmanhood gradually. This is the aim worldwide unknowingly and it must be done knowingly here in India with greater emphasis and awareness.
As regards jihād, it is core concept of Islam right since its inception in the Madināh warfare. Since it is central and foundational to Islam, having been corroborated by its key scriptural trinity of texts, the Qur'an, the Hadees and the Sira, it cannot be done away with. At best the emphasis may be changed from external jihād to internal jihād. But that as of now in the current geopolitical situation is a far cry. Through all these complexities, the dialectics of duality, the world evolves. 🕉
Sugata Bose @Nilmoni Mondal : It was Swami Vivekananda who had said that Hindus must turn to non-vegetarianism en masse to regain the warrior-spirit, the kshātravirya which has been largely lost owing to meek piety which to his mind in the commoner has been aided in its proliferation by vegetarian diet and the song and dance culture of a sensate type in the name of devotion and culture, weak literature, effeminate bearing and utter loss of manhood and shradhhā owing to absence of the ancient system of brahmacharya. Swamiji, though, did aver that the future of the world would see greater acceptance of the vegetarian diet. These are contextual questions and must be duly comprehended instead of quick, shortsighted inference contradicting the great man's deeply thought out observations. Surface minds will ever seek commonplace references by way of content-contradiction instead of deep pondering over the utterances of the sages of yore and now to gain understanding of the civilisational issues in depth. 🕉
Sugata Bose @Prakash Gupta : বঙ্গবন্ধুর, অর্থাৎ, শেখ মুজিব-উর-রহমানের The Great Calcutta Killingএ [16 August, 1946] এবং ভারতবিভাজনে কি ভূমিকা ছিল, তা একটু দেখে নেবেন | প্রসঙ্গান্তরে বললাম যদিও, তাই মার্জনাপ্রার্থী বিক্ষেপের জন্য | 🕉 হিন্দু !
Sugata Bose @Abir : Now you are a certified Master. But to be a real Master great work is as yet ahead. And great work you will do to arrive duly at the Master state which is the endpoint of greatness. Blessings from Baba in advance. [Reference: On completion of course in Columbia and attaining to certified Master of Science state, the concerned post-graduate degree to the same tune.]
Sugata Bose @Kakali Roy Chowdhury : Bravo! Brilliant original observation.
Sugata Bose @Subhamoy Banerjee : We have to make this seemingly impossible thing possible. That should be our life's mission instead of lazily observing that we cannot achieve unity. Hard work, harder labour, strongest love will achieve wonders. 🕉 Hindu!
Sugata Bose @Subhamoy Banerjee : We have to undermine their ideological base systematically. They must be philosophically pulverised. For that we need to train Vedanta debaters well versed in the scriptures, erudite in Sanskrit lore and possessed of adequate command over the Sanskrit language itself. 🕉 Hindu!
Sugata Bose @Bikram Mookerjee : The Vedanta scriptures speak of what Brahman is not and not what Brahman is as such beyond hinting about It by some such words such as Sachchidānanda, for what Brahman is is not possible to speak of. Hence, Abrahma vichār.

4. Hindus will have to turn non-vegetarian more or less universally if they are to effectively combat the anti-Hindu forces.
5. Persecution of Hindus in Bangladesh continues. Hindus here in India, especially West Bengal, must protest. Our support will lend solidarity to the movement for protection of Hindu rights in Bangladesh where state repression is often used under fanciful pretexts to obliterate the Hindus. 1.31 crore Hindu brethren of ours are suffering persecution in Bangladesh which was once our beloved Bharatvarsha. These persecuted ones are the children of Eternal India, although now partitioned and rechristened Bangladesh post 1971. It is their birthright to stay in their motherland and not suffer eviction from there just because they are not Muslims. Such intolerance must not be tolerated by us, we who form the largest body of Hindus in the world. We must respond to this appalling situation of our kith and kin in Bangladesh as Swamiji has exhorted us to do. He has said that the pain of every Hindu anywhere in the world must be palpably felt by every Hindu across the world. Only then may one be called a Hindu. Thus, it is our sacred task to do everything we can to lend solidarity and support to our suffering brethren in Bangladesh. 🕉 Hindu!

15. আমরা কত কথা বলি কিন্তু কালী কই ? সেই পূতস্পর্শে জীবন ধন্য হ'ক !
16. When the gods die, man awakes. When man dies, God awakes. Then the gods, man and God fuse to become the Undivided Whole.
17. We are deluded souls drunk with the wine of life that is fleeting while eternity waits at our door all along.

22. মাকে ডাকো | বলো, "মা, আমি বড় কাপুরুষ | আমার কাপুরুষতা দূর করো |"
23. As I am teaching, the Islamic Friday sermon being delivered now over the loudspeaker rather loudly is really disturbing us, both student and teacher. Is this the way the Chief Minister thinks West Bengal's education will go ahead?
24. There is immeasurably greater proliferation of Arabic in India than Sanskrit, a point to be noted by nationalists.
25. এই লাউডস্পিকারে ইসলামপ্রচার বন্ধ হ'ক | এটি একেবারে হক কথা |
26. The greed for gold that corporate houses breed in human minds through their product advertisements is ruining the morals of the country.

33. Those who do not want to fight for the defence of the Dharma say that the Sanatan Dharma is indestructible or that the Avatar will descend to defend it. Cowardice seeks this dual ploy as the Hindus precipitate further into the abyss of oblivion.
34. Please do not plagiarise on my posts. Share them instead. Do not lift them bodily out of my profile without acknowledging my authorship of the same.

Such a brave man! He laid the foundation for the future Hindu Rashtra centuries ago, a dream that must be fulfilled in the decades to come if the Hindus are to survive as a race, a culture, a civilisation and as a nation.

47. Delivered in 2021, October, after the dastardly attack by Muslim fundamentalists on innocent Hindus on a massive scale throughout Bangladesh, murdering, molesting, looting, rampaging temples, burning houses, evicting the Hindus from their hearth and home, and all this on a false alarm maliciously raised and falsely so that the Islamic holy book had been kept at the feet of Shree Hanumānji by the concerned temple authorities which the CCTV footage revealed had been enacted under prior instruction by the Muslim lad himself who had raised the alarm. What followed was mayhem, short of a genocide across Bangladesh, the destruction of the kāfir (infidel in the eyes of Islam) till the then Prime Minister Sheikh Hasinā's effective administrative measures normalised the situation. Swāmi Purnātmānandaji was vocal at the Dhākeshwari teleconference and apprised the Prime Minister of the gravity of the situation and the imperative for the PM's immediate strongest possible intervention by way of protecting the persecuted Hindu community. Here again he hear him voicing his said concern. The human chain in peaceful protest that he organised in this regard is also worth mentioning. Mahāraj had issued a Press release in which he exhorted the attacked Hindus not to run away but to resist.
This Swami of much erudition and more transparency stands in the line of the illustrious monks of the Order who as yet have the courage of spiritual conviction to modestly criticise the decadence of the Order in specific areas. He stands tall still in sectarian, fundamentalist Bangladesh as the hope of the Hindus despite the Ramakrishna Mission's apparent silence over Islamic issues of anti-Hindu violence. 19 centres and 7 sub-centres of the Ramakrishna Mission are serving the people of Bangladesh under his principal guidance. We need to recognise Swami Purnātmānandaji's efforts and lend him solidarity and support so that the Hindus there know that they are not alone but are flesh and blood of the vast Hindu samāj stretching the limits of the globe. 🕉 Hindu!

Under no circumstance must a loose promise be made that cannot be fulfilled under the pressure of circumstance, a loose word given that will sure misfire if kept or will be impossible to follow up on if situation becomes inharmonious. Thus, restraint of speech is an imperative in the spiritual path without which life falls apart.
54. পশ্চিম বাংলায় ঢং বেড়েছে |
55. প্রচার হিন্দুত্বের খুব হ'ক | সাথে আত্মপ্রচার না হলেই হল |
56. বেদান্তশাস্ত্র হ'ল অব্রহ্মবিচার |
57. It is curious that TV news channels keep harping on how we must be an inclusive society and then they flash a news item, claiming it as exclusive to the channel. Lovely contradiction!
58. "Accumulate power in silence." So said Swamiji and this I can testify having seen in life quite often among monastics of the Ramakrishna Order. He who I have seen a stray straw tossing on the river of life in early youth matured in time to become a mighty ocean liner afloat on the sea, carrying thousands in its care. Gradual growth is ever the way.
59. Defend the Dharma.
60. Bharatvarsha existed ages before 15 August, 1947, a civilisational Rāshtra founded on the Sanatan Dharma.
61. I do not need the certificate of savants to prove to me the divinity of Sri Ramakrishna. My experience is proof enough.
62. সত্যপালন ও সরলতা ছাড়া আধ্যাত্মিক প্রগতি অসম্ভব | আবরণী ও বিক্ষেপশক্তির প্রয়োগে ভক্ত পথভ্রষ্ট হন | ভক্তের সরলতাই সার |
63. Words must be spoken out of deep conviction. They must be the outpouring of a soul who feels intensely the import of what he says.
64. Cow-slaughter must stop.
65. এই বেসুরো গলা-কাঁপানো ভক্তিগীতি আর সহ্য করা যায় না | আর তাই শুনেই ভক্তদের কী পুলক ! এই সুরসর্বজ্ঞ সাধুটি সংগীতের সলিল সমাধি করলে !
66. বুদ্ধি দিয়ে তর্ক করা সহজ | কিন্তু বোধ কই যে মিমাংসা করবে ?
