DO NOT MAKE A MOCKERY OF SWAMIJI THROUGH YOUR OWN PUBLISHED WEAKNESS

DO NOT MAKE A MOCKERY OF SWAMIJI THROUGH YOUR OWN PUBLISHED WEAKNESS

Stop diluting Swamiji, I say, stop doing so. He was a vast volcano in igneous eruption. He was not the embodiment of a compromised love of the enemy but a virile exponent of all that is best in man. Above all, he was a patriot who set the powder on fire in the magazine of the Indian mind and paved the way to freedom.

But freedom? Swamiji's dream remains as yet unfulfilled with India partitioned and ruled in all three severed parts by either crony capitalists or by corrupt politicians or by Islamisrs with the most corrosive agenda of impossible global conversion to its fold.

'Awake ! Awake !', Swamiji said. Awake, my children and break the shackles of man everywhere. Stop befriending the enemies of mankind, the diabolic western powers. Call a spade a spade and stop apologising for their historical heresies. Confront them head on and build your motherland in rightful regal terms as befits her heritage and her destiny in the making. Fulfil Swamiji. He did not come to open schools and hospitals and send his men on relief missions. These are peripheral elements of his global mission. He came to quicken the spiritual consciousness of man through dynamic action. He came to liberate India from the dastardly British Crown that still wears its colonial, imperialistic badge of the plundered Kohinoor. He came to give man dignity. He came to deliver man unto himself and usher in a golden era of spiritual humanity with its phased material, complementary, counterpart as well. Do not fail Swamiji by reducing him to a matinee idol of material pretensions in the name of publicised spirituality which in his own words has today 'become a lifeless mockery'. May Vivekananda live in our vitals to revivify us !
