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.

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.

Sugata Bose @Swapan Kumar Ghosh : সব কথা কি বলা যায় ? 'অধিক বাক্যে ভাগ্যনাশ |' আমার প্রতিবেদনে ইঙ্গিত সর্বদা থাকে | 'বুদ্ধিমান, বুঝিয়া লও ! '

Sugata Bose @Prakash Gupta : This was said by Tarek Fatah in relation to Pakistan, West and East. Was it not? This is so far as I know. If I am erring, I would like to be rectified and better informed. 🕉 Hindu! [Reference: That Pakistan was a huge land scam. Something to that effect.] 

Sugata Bose @Debaprasad Bhattacharya : Kindly propagate Swamiji's virile messages of the defence of the Hindus. This point I raised before a venerable Swami of the Ramakrishna Order. I told him that he was too abstruse in his delineation of the Sanatan Dharma while talking about Swamiji, sort of self-brooding on the deeper aspects of the Vedanta while masses of our Hindu brethren in the absence of easy understanding of the scriptures and faced with a fusillade of Islamic (and Christian, which I failed to mention) proselytising tenets were getting converted by the day. Maharaj smiled and nodded assent saying that Vedanta was abstruse and had to be taught that way. I had two of my pupils with me who had been newly introduced to Swami Vivekananda and had accompanied me to see Maharaj in the hope that they would be told something about Swamiji which they would understand. But all that they were most reverentially treated to was a soliloquy of sagelike reflection on the Self which for the while did bring their attention to focus for sure but lent them no clue as to what Maharaj was saying. Swamiji had once remarked that his Master's method of communication in the colloquial way was his ideal of literary communication. Here Maharaj failed and here your abstruse posts also literally fail to drive home the message to the common Hindu that his life, property, culture, Dharma, civilisation and the very identity of his beloved motherland are in peril today. There are passages galore in Swamiji's Complete Works where direct and indirect references are made by the sage, pronouncements made by the prophet of the times as to how the Hindu may defend his Dharma. But everyday I see these high-flying Vedantic passages on the Ātman, Brahman and Māyā adorning your posts which render the Hindu readers further passive and defenceless in their induced ignorance, for the antibiotic will not cure common cold which needs rest and fluids for its removal from the affected system. In a like manner give us a daily dose of due medicine that will empower us to fight anti-Hindu elements which like the Kauravas are lined up to destroy us, or worse, like the invading Islamic hordes from Arabia. And these are plentifully available in 'The Complete Works of Swami Vivekananda'. 🕉 Hindu!

Sugata Bose @Prakash Gupta : হচ্ছে তো | নিত্য হিন্দুরা বলি হচ্ছে এই বিরাট মাতৃমন্দিরে | নরবলি নিত্য অনুষ্ঠিত |

Sugata Bose @Ujjal Kumar Ghosh : Correct appreciation of the post unlike advocacy of spiritual effeminacy which is more in vogue.

Sugata Bose @Kunal Bose : But there is a state transcending the twain of good and bad times, and that is the God-timelessness which is the state of the Self where perfect equilibrium obtains out of zeroing in of all phenomenal forces. 🕉

Sugata Bose @Debaprasad Bhattacharya : Please have a look at my Vivekananda posts on THE FUTURE OF INDIA replete with post-link of original text and links to earlier posts in the comment section. All attribution duly made and service rendered to readers for comprehensive following of the posts.

Sugata Bose @Snigdhodeb Sinha : Not only that. India, then steeped in tamas---a state from which she has hardly recovered, for it is a variant of that state which we are now experiencing---and in political bondage, had to be invigorated with the clarion call of karma. 

Human civilisation is the resolution of jnāna (knowledge) and karma (labour). If India, precipitated as she was during Swamiji's times, had to be raised to occupy her due position in the comity of nations, her children would necessarily have to be inspired by the spiritual ideal of sacrificial work. To top it, as you duly said, the spiritual civilisation obtaining during Swamiji's times was at an ebb and it would be puerile to preach lofty jnāna yoga to the masses whose power of philosophical understanding had diminished by such a degree that pure thought would elude their intellectual grasp. Bhakti, thanks to the proliferated Vaishnava movement, they had enough, perhaps to a debilitating degree, which meant that karma was the great path as yet left to enthuse the masses to rise up and free the motherland from political and cultural bondage en route to attaining those higher attributes that would equip them to apprehend higher truths. 🕉 

Sugata Bose @YouTube [Advaita Ashrama---Swami Shuddhidananda] : Maharaj, do not restrain yourself. Speak with unbridled power. Else, you will be ineffective in inspiring others. Courage of conviction is necessary, going beyond organisational interest. The spoken word in truth triumphs only when articulated dauntlessly, without compromising an iota to accommodate whatever there be that are impediments to its expression. Sri Ramakrishna used to say,

"Shame, detestation, fear----

These three if there be,

Cipher are thy chances

To witness the Great Me."

🕉 Hindu!

Sugata Bose @Debaprasad Bhattacharya : No one is countering that organisational proposition. The point being highlighted here is this abject capitulation to authority which Swamiji never wanted as he had espoused in trumpet terms gradual democratisation of the Mission's system with increase in general education, a fact highlighted by Swami Nityaswarupananda who was highly critical thus of the reverse trend of increasing authoritarian control of the Order that has rendered the individual monk a passive supporter of every compromise that is being made in the name of the Holy Trinity while deviating from their pronounced principles like anything, justifying perhaps such deviation by citing practical considerations which are inconsistent with ground reality as every bold and perceptive observer will testify to. But it needs honesty, sincerity, courage of conviction and character to say so. Those that will do so today will face the due consequences and so maintain their silence while sycophantic devotees galore keep supporting every deviation from original principles as gospel governance of a god who has changed his own stance to suit material convenience, thereby rendering a spiritual order material to a mindless degree. 🕉 Hindu!

Sugata Bose @Partha Pratim Adhikary : Read Sri Aurobind's 'Life Divine'. Read the nine volumes of 'The Complete Works of Swami Vivekananda' completely. Then yourself compare and contrast. As a starter read the following:

Sugata Bose @Swami Nikhileswarananda : 'Our humble salutations to Swami Subodhanandaji Maharaj on his birth-tithi.' Maharaj, pardon me for this intrusion of presenting before you the properly punctuated version of your valued post.

Sugata Bose @Swami Nikhileswarananda : 'Our humble salutations to Swami Subodhanandaji Maharaj on his birth-tithi.' Maharaj, pardon me for this intrusion of presenting before you the properly punctuated version of your valued post. You have partially rectified your post, that at its start, but not done so at its end. Kindly see. Pranām. 🕉 

Sugata Bose @YouTube [Sange Tamnoy-- Video on Suchirra Sen] : Over-secrecy is unspiritual. The desire to hide is one of the eight fetters that binds a soul to material bondage which is why Swami Vivekananda had remarked that Pavhari Baba who remained hidden in a hole in the ground was perhaps not yet a realised soul then, that is, at the time of Swamiji's first visit to Ghazipur when he had even sought spiritual initiation to study Hathayoga with the secretive sadhu. In Suchitra Sen's case as well this over-secrecy almost amounting to a disease was a sign of material bondage rather than spiritual liberation. 🕉
