NOTE TO MY STUDENT'S MOTHER

NOTE TO MY STUDENT'S MOTHER


I cannot follow constant guidance regarding what to teach when anymore. This is demeaning for me and I have in my long career as a tutor for over four decades never done so in a single instance. I am not a classwork-tending, examination-tending teacher. I build lives. It must be understood. I have repeatedly said so in the past but seemingly to no effect. My students do very well this way. My life's experience says so. You must have faith in me and let me take charge hereon as I deem best. ICSE is less than three years away and I am under time pressure to build her well enough for life, although she is doing remarkably good work for some time now. She will do better. Do not read me wrong as your understanding is most essential. Bless you!

ISLAM/CHRISTIANITY/HINDUISM---A RELATIVE STUDY ... 1

ISLAM/CHRISTIANITY/HINDUISM---A RELATIVE STUDY ... 1


The most mischievous thing politically is to convert Hindus to Islam through marriage. Increasing numbers to increase earthly influence thus in political terms is hardly spiritual. No Muslim as per Islamic scriptural injunction may marry a mushrik without first converting her or him to Islam. And the Hindu is a mushrik (polytheist) in the limited vision of Islam which fails to interpret Hindu worship of multiple manifestations of the same Brahman-Shakti Principle as anything else.

AS THEY LEAVE ONE BY ONE TO SHINE WITH A PERENNIAL LUSTRE



AS THEY LEAVE ONE BY ONE TO SHINE WITH A PERENNIAL LUSTRE


Another light of my life goes off. Asha Bhosle will never be again. She along with her elder sister had filled up my adolescent days with a sublimity that is today lost as a civilisation of the past and lives on in tearful memory as a relic that perchance will revive in a fresher spring yet unborn but brewing in the womb of futurity. The breathtaking beauty of her voice, the delicate modulations like a dainty brook dancing over a pebbled bed, here quickening steps, there slowing down, her amazing versatility and that supernal musical sense with ear, voice and soul attuned as if in divine harmony make her nonpareil in the world of Indian film music. A never to be forgotten artiste of rare attainments, voice vivacious and voice velvety where it needed to be, and voice sublime, uplifting, divine where she shone in her truest self. Orphaned yet again today.

A CLARION CALL TO HINDUS BY SWAMI SHUDDHIDĀNANDA

A CLARION CALL TO HINDUS BY SWAMI SHUDDHIDĀNANDA

A clarion call to Hindus by a true follower of Swami Vivekananda. Swami Shuddhidānandaji has caught the spirit of Swamiji right and is articulating it in the right way in these times of growing Islamisation of India owing to perfidious political play of traitorous parties and determined demographic change being brought about by hyperfertility of Muslim women, conversion and illegal immigration into India. Hindus by their neglect of the Dharma, non-marriage, late marriage and low fertility are also contributing to this increasing powershift away from them. Here a solitary Ramakrishna monk is exhibiting sterling courage of conviction to awaken a cowardly polity that in its indolence, sense-gratification and plain indifference to the alarming state of things is hastening its own downfall. Experience, it seems, has failed to teach any worthwhile lesson en masse to the Hindus who have suffered the worst genocide in human history for well over 1300 years, so deluded in ephemeral delights they are and so suffering from amnesia and plain unmanliness. Alas, it would take more than one Shuddhidānandaji to ignite the wet wood that Hindus have become! Hence, it is for us to come forward and bear upon the same cause, that of fostering Hindu awareness, solidarity, unity of purpose, social help and the defence of the Dharma. Vande Mātaram! 🕉

ARISE! AWAKE! ... 5


ARISE! AWAKE! ... 5


India is traditionally a Hindu country and must remain so. If not, she will cease to exist. The soul of India is the Sanātan Dharma. If through demographic transition India is Islamised, she will die. Ten thousand years of civilisation will finally perish wholesale. 


Conversion of Hindus to Islam and Christianity must stop. Rather, reconversion of Muslims and Christians back to their original religion, Hinduism, must be vigorously effected. India is already hyperpopulated. So, increasing the Hindu population by having three children per couple as Mohan Bhagwat said is no solution. If Hindus have three, Muslims may have four or five or six. So, the demographic balance will keep shifting the wrong way. What is needed is therefore the unabashed affirmation of the national character that is Hinduism as Swami Vivekananda has so clearly pointed out. Let us do it. The rest will take care of itself. 


The pressure of Hinduisation in all its sublimest sense should sure induce Muslims and Christians to revert to Hinduism. But for that Hindus must exhibit character. Let it begin with a thorough study of Vivekananda and the practical application of his principles in a robust way  and not in an apologetic manner as has thus far been done. Let manhood manifest in the study, practice and propagation of Vivekananda. Then we shall see what to do next.

We need forceful spiritual teachers, men of renunciation and character who can take the audience by storm, who can speak with authority and not as apologists weakly stating scriptural principles with neither courage nor conviction. Such a one was Swamiji. Whither another like him? We need many a mini-Vivekananda at least today to represent his cause, the Divine Mother's cause, so that India is galvanised into productive action of non-exploitative nation-building and world-regeneration through spiritual preaching. Character, electric personality and overwhelming love are the trinity of attributes we most need today in many a soul so that a wonderful movement may be set in motion and this fallen race of ours may once more reach sublime spiritual heights and lead the world unto peace and enlightenment.

একদিকে ওমান, অপরদিকে ইরান,

মাঝখানে প্রাণঘাতী ভীষণ হোরমুজ |

আয়াতুল্লা কয়, "তব শেষ অভিলাশ কি ?"

কহে ডুবিবার আগে, "খাব আমি তোরমুজ |"
