I HATE COWARDICE, SAID SWAMIJI

The future of our country may be great but the present times are rather bad as there is a dearth of honest, upright and vigorous souls who can stand up for truth irrespective of who they confront in opposition in doing so. The mass of devotees are spineless sycophants with no self-belief that will enable them to voice for truth instead of siding with organisational compromise with the elements of the day. Sri Ramakrishna and Swami Vivekananda have been long let down by both monastics and the laity and it is time, time indeed, for redressing the corrosive course of the Master's movement for the establishment of truth and virtue. Else, it will be so late that none but a second descent of the Divine can alter and adjust the inevitable precipitous course of the otherwise prophetically ordained movement of the millennium. Shall we still remain fence-sitters and allow the divine decline? The choice is ours and our fate is intimately linked with it. The decline is there for all to see and it was the forevision of this, perhaps, that had prompted the Master to prophesy his second coming.

P.S. COMMENTS :

Sugata Bose @Sharmistha Chatterjee : We must not be hypocrites, that is all. Devotion springs from strength of the aspiring soul, not from passivity tainted with worldliness and camouflaged in grandiloquent verbal expressions, frothy articulations tantamount to nothing.
