MESSAGES GALORE ... 114
MESSAGES GALORE ... 114
1. হিন্দুর জাগরণে ঐক্য, ঐক্যেই জাগরণ | আর জাগরণেই সংহতি, সংরক্ষণ ও সম্প্রসারণ | সম্প্রসারণেই শক্তিলাভ, জগতকল্যাণ, ইষ্টসিদ্ধি |
2. Hindus must not be apologists for their dharmic cause but must aggressively pursue it along spiritual lines.
3. Any religion that claims itself to be the only true religion and rejects all other religions as false is itself a false religion.
4. A spiritual organisation has a life of its own, its elements wedded together by a common ideal, that of love for the Ishtadevata/Ishtadevi and for the Sanātana Dharma. Come ye and be my associates in this grand venture to revive the Dharma and to spread it across the world for the benefit of all and sundry. 🕉
5. Evil cannot be eliminated unless evil ideology that generates it, is done away with. Herein lies the real Durgā Pūja.
6. Toxic theology grips the lowly mind and generates evil. Work at roots to eliminate it. Supplant theological toxicity with wholesome Vedanta.
7. Hindus must strengthen themselves. Strength is life. In it lies dharma. Study the scriptures daily, religiously to acquire this strength. Then practise the principles enshrined therein. 🕉
8. Each and every Sanātan sect must strengthen itself along individual lines but harmonise each other in the common 🕉 and the Brahman transcending all dualistic differences of Ishta and approach.
9. Hindu activists must be far more informed so that they can hold their own in debates concerning contentious historical issues.
10. কাজ করলেই হবে না | সে কর্ম নিষ্ফল যদি না সনাতন ধর্মের রক্ষণাবেক্ষণের জন্য করা যায় |
11. হিন্দুদের আরও গভীর এবং গম্ভীর হতে হবে | বড় বেশি চাপল্য, লঘুচিত্ততা, নিজধর্ম ও পরধর্মবিষয়ে জ্ঞানলাভে অনীহা | লক্ষণ ভাল না |
12. Do not be a coward. Fight it out. Life is struggle. And in the tribal present when our existence itself is under threat, we must arm ourselves in superb spiritual strength that will vanquish the enemy that is spreading within our ranks. Vice must be countered at all levels in every phase of life. There is much to do. Can you sleep? Or, worse still, when awake, can you idle away posing before the camera and present your physical self for others' compliments? Is this living a worthwhile life with selfies occupying centrestage and defence of the Dharma relegated to becoming last priority or of no consequence at all?
13. আমি নিরবয়ব, নিরুপাধিক চৈতন্যসত্তা, অটল অস্তিত্ব, অপ্রকাশ, স্বপ্রকাশ, পূর্ণ |
14. Sanātan interest must be upheld. That alone will preserve the nation and the world.
15. Reverting all Sanātani converts to Islam and Christianity back to the Sanātan Dharma is the only way to bring about the solidarity of the subcontinent and to ensure lasting peace.
16. Your faith in the Sanātan Dharm must be very strong, well-nigh unshakeable. Then alone will you be able to withstand the onslaughts of faiths hell-bent upon destroying the Sanātan Dharm by doctrinaire injunction and executive practice of such perverse principles.
17. Blame the ideology, not the individual. The individual is the victim and needs to be extricated from the ideology's toxic grip.
18. Speak direct. Speak the truth. Do not beat about the bush. Speak concisely, in a civil way, but the brutal truth. No compromise there. Truth cannot bear watering down anymore.
19. Today is the birthday of so many insignificant souls whose cumulative work has significantly swayed the fortunes of the nation for the better. In unity lies strength, in coordination construction. Unity of purpose, unity of end, unity of aspiration bring about fulfilment that is the happiness of all beyond dual distraction, the bliss that boundless abounds in the depths of the heart of all. 🕉
Happy birthday to all born this day from time immemorial!
20.
কর্ম হ'ল ধর্ম, মোক্ষ হ'ল লক্ষ্য |
জ্ঞান হ'ল ধ্যান, সর্বত্র আত্মপক্ষ ||
21. Vice will die and the Sanātan Dharm will be restored in all its comprehensiveness. Bhāratvarsh will become Akhand Sanātan again. 🕉
22. We are held in the vision cone of Thakur. But a gracious glance from him, and we are liberated.
23. The victory is yet to be won. The demon dances around still, changing form to confound the faithful. It is a battle that is raging. It is a victory in the wait. Let us fight on while Mother witnesses our valour that will vanquish the enemy and seat her firm, not in the firmament but in her earthly heartland that is Akhanda Bhāratvarsha.
24. Do not be enamoured of heaven or frightened of hell. Depend on your karma and carve out your destiny.
25. India won her independence through armed struggle. It was these martyrs to freedom who actually freed us, not the protagonists of passive resistance who falsely claimed the credit or were falsely credited with.
26. We need Sanskrit universities all over India to revive our national culture. Science and Sanskrit must be the two wings of our academic flight.
27. Those Hindus who have been converted to Islam and Christianity are unfortunate indeed as they are being deprived of Sanātan study and practice. Conversion has indeed been a vice for two millennia in Bhāratvarsha. The sooner the converts revert to the Mother Faith, the better for them and the better for the Great Mother embodied as the motherland who awaits their return.
28. Study like Max Mueller, comprehend like Swamiji, have insight like Thakur.
29. RSS at 100 stands resolute in its defence of the Dharma.
30. Shree Rāmakrishna-->Swami Vivekananda-->Swami Akhandānanda-->Guru Golwalkar---this is the lineage that needs reckoning as well. Thakurji as destroyer of evil and rendering solidarity to the Sanātanis has to be taken into account as RSS stands at 100 seasons' mark.
31. Who was Guru Golwalkar's Guru? And who was Guru Golwalkar's Param Guru?
32. আমাদের একে অপরের গুণাবলী দেখে প্রশংসায় পঞ্চমুখ হওয়া উচিত | কিন্তু আমরা এতই ঈর্ষাকাতর যে আমরা প্রশংসায় পরাঙ্মুখ |
33. Instead of harbouring anti-brāhman sentiments and trying to run them down on account of historical injustices meted out to the Dalits, no doubt on grounds of evolutionary imperatives, whether justifiable or not, Swamiji advised the Dalits to raise themselves to the status of brāhmans by appropriating the study of Sanskrit which has traditionally been the forte of the brāhmans and the source of their intellectual strength and stranglehold on Sanātan samāj. This is the positive step forward as opposed to the decrying of the brāhmanical dharma which had much good in it as well and contributed largely to the preservation of the Sanātan civilisation amidst the invasive onslaughts of barbarians, and is the sure step towards achieving Sanātan solidarity and consequent national well-being.
34. Serve with verve.
35. If life has to be lost one day, let it be lost to the cause of giving life to others.
36. By repetitive divine action the undivine things fall away.
37. মানুষ আমায় যা ভালবেসে দিল, সেটাই প্রসাদ আমার কাছে |
38. মানুষের স্বভাব কি ? মানুষের স্বভাব হচ্ছে খালি অন্যকে কষ্ট দেওয়া |
39. দেহরূপ রথও তুমি নও, মনরূপ রথও তুমি নও | তুমি হলে আত্মারূপ রথী |*
*Sugata Bose@Debaprasad Bhattacharya : এ ধারণার বিষয় নয়, বোধে বোধের বস্তু, অদ্বয়চৈতন্যে প্রতিভাত নির্বিকল্প অপরোক্ষানুভূতি, তৎপরে ব্রহ্মবহুত্ববিকাশেও কূটস্থোপলব্ধি |
40. Endless are the woes of man, endless the grace that lifts his soul.
41. To insult Hindus and Hindu gods and goddesses comes easy to intellectuals and men in high positions because Hindus do not react violently. These men in significant stations do not have the guts to insult in a like manner the followers of other faiths or their faiths as such for fear of violent reprisal. It is time that Hindus become united in defence of the Dharma so that such casual caustic remarks may not be made against them by way of a vicious deliberation.
42. In silence suffers the soul that has taken up the burden of the world.The grace of the great saves us from the grave of the world.
43. Hindus are awaking and the faster they do so, the better for them. There are many enemies, though, and they must be avoided.
44. If you nurse anti-Sanātan sentiments on account of personal predilection, it will come out as offensive remark made even from your significant seat of judgement much like radish odour emitted after eating radish.
45.
বিচার করিছ বটে নির্বিচারে |
ভগবান অপমান সহে ;
ভক্ত কি সবে সইতে পারে ?
46. Spiritually dead, they seek satisfaction in the material world. But the material world is dead and cannot satisfy. Hence, be spiritually alive and find fulfilment. Let contentment be yours.
47. Devotion at its deepest! Alas, the self is so seeking! Sublimity laid low at the altar of desire as delusion rules the roost. Meanwhile, time ticks away leading us inexorably to the dead end whence a return to the cycle of suffering life on earth will teach us the due lesson. Till then the senses shall cheat and we shall like fools suffer much pain for a trifling pleasure that knows no end, it seems, owing to the dust of desire covering consciousness. How strange that educated men and women should be so foolish! Whither wisdom, whither light?
48. Buddhists, unite with Sanātanis to fight Abrahamic aggression.
49. Rāma resisted evil, destroyed the evildoers. Krishna resisted evil, destroyed the evildoers. Why then must their successors appease evil and evildoers? Why don't they have the courage of conviction and character enough to eliminate evil and uproot evildoers who are hell bent upon destroying Bhāratvarsha and its Sanātan culture?
50. রামকৃষ্ণ ভাবধারার বলিষ্ঠ প্রচার প্রয়োজন | মিনমিনে প্রচারে কাজ হবে না | চাই পৌরুষসম্পন্ন তেজস্বী প্রচারক | দিকে দিকে ছড়িয়ে পড়ুক |
51. 
জীবনের অন্তিম আশ্রয়স্থল |
52. People face hordes of trouble in their lives, some of them devastating. A simple solution to overriding such is to read Swamiji.
53. এবার হনুমানের মতন আগুন লাগিয়ে দেব স্বামীজীর বাণী দিয়ে |
54. Able-bodied people, stop afternoon nap.
55. The best way to preach Swamiji is to keep oneself completely in the background, unobserved. Swamiji alone must be made prominent.
56. Jealousy and envy are eating into the vitals of the nation. This is evident from the utter lack of sympathy and support from friends and associates for any worthwhile cause undertaken. Levity, self-projection and shallowness have cast their dark shadow like an overhanging cloud obscuring the effulgence of the sun.
57. Although the national population continues to grow, Hindus are now a shrinking population. What does it mean?
58. The Sanātan Dharma is the last surviving hope of the world.
59. Serving the nation is a heart-rending job. The RSS that has for a century served the nation, is the victim of the most vicious vilification. And yet it is the best defence of the Hindus.
60. Few, very few help me in my work for the resurrection of the motherland. Most are too preoccupied with self-serving.
61. Those who wish to work for Hindutva must be of strong character. Weaklings cannot serve the cause.
62. The apathy of highly educated Hindus to Hindu regeneration is appalling. This self-hatred is suicidal for a race.
63. This constant criticism of the RSS by antinational intellectuals must be countered with effective intellectual defence.
64.
হনু আমি হনুমান,
তা করেছি অনুমান,
কবে যে মানুষ হব ?
কবে যাব চাঁদে ?
পড়েছি যে ফাঁদে,
কতকাল খাঁচায় রব ?
(Tune: Jāne o kaise / Log hai aise / Pyar hi pyar milā / Hum ne toh hai kaliyān jaise / Kanto ka hār milā)
65. স্বামীজীকে মেয়েলিভাবে পরিবেশন করলে তাঁর জীবনদর্শনের প্রতি অবমাননা হয় | বাচন বলিষ্ঠ হ'ক, ভাব দৃপ্ত হ'ক, বিদ্যূত বিচ্ছুরিত হ'ক ছত্রে ছত্রে নাদধ্বনিযোগে |
66. হৃদয় মন্থন করে যে অমৃত উত্থিত হয়, তারই নাম বেদ |
67. ধর্ম কই যে ধর্মনিরপেক্ষতা ? এখন ত' রাজ্য জুড়ে অধর্মসাপেক্ষতার খেলা, নির্মমতার মেলা |
68. এখনও সময় আছে | বঙ্গসন্তান, বিবেকানন্দে ফেরো |
69. জড়বাদ ত' ভোগের ঊর্ধ্বে কিছু বোঝে না | আত্মানুভূতির সন্ধানই সে পায়নি | তার ত' ঘোরাফেরা ষড়চক্রের ওই নিম্নতম তিন স্তরে---লিঙ্গ, গুহ্য, নাভি | এতে আর গরিমা কি ? বামপন্থীরা ভাবুক |
70. Purity is the soul of religion. If you have it, you are spiritual. If you do not, you are not. The same applies to a faith.
71. সাধুদের মধ্যে একটা পুরুষ হলে জগত জাগে | একটা পুরুষও পাওয়া যায় না যার মধ্যে সিংহনিনাদ শোনা যায় ?
72. The world is a place where rogues rule over weaklings masquerading as good people.
73. যা পড়ে থাকবে, তারই পিছে ছুটছে মানুষ | যা সাথে যাবে, তার দিকে হুঁশ নেই |
74. Chant more. A wellspring of bliss lies within, ready to flow out the moment the clogged mouth is cleansed of dross with tears of love for the Divine.
75. Individuality within moderate collective bounds is the the ideal of the free society.
76. Free indeed is he who has bound himself in love for the Lord.
77. The same room which was a mart of bliss flowing like an unceasing fountain from the heart of the Himālayas as it were, now bereft of the blessed presence of the Lord whose revisitation we all await on earth. Thakur, you are now the only hope of humanity that is otherwise destined to doom. Do descend into a womb of light again to deliver us and to fulfil the unfulfilled mission of yours whose Act 1 we have witnessed and whose fulfilment awaits in its sequel in Act 2. O Lord, visit us again and deliver us from ignorance and weakness, as you must as per your promise in the Geeta to those who have surrendered their lot to you. 🕉
78. Sanātan Dharma, the challenges and dangers ahead.
Hindus must awake to their civilisational imperatives. Else, destruction is at hand. We must not wait for a divine deliverer but must do our duty to save our culture, our civilisation, our heritage, our dharma and ourselves. Abrahamic aggression must be thwarted.
79. স্বামীজী, আবার আসুন | ভারত বিপন্ন আজ |
80. এত অর্থলোলুপতা ভাল না | ঠাকুরের কথা কেউ মানে না |
81. Swamiji was young when he fired his Vedantic volleys. Unless monks in their youth mature fast enough to do likewise, it will be difficult to capture the imagination of the nation's youth and galvanise them unto effective nation-building. As of now, such monks are not visible and we must depend upon 'The Complete Works of Swami Vivekananda' to fire us up with Vedantic zeal and human concern. 🕉
82. শিবাজী আমার আদর্শ, গান্ধীজী নন |
83. One lives straight under straightened circumstances. It is bliss to dwell in necessity. Excesses are naturally avoided.
84. We need monks who are not running after organisational land acquisition and concentrating instead on man-making. Intrepid, inspired souls totally dedicated to God in man and Man in God are the need of the hour, men devoid of the dross of desire and full of the fire of spirituality untainted by the aspiration for name and fame, position and power, lust and lucre, and simply driven by divine impulses of the Spirit which is what their donned ochre symbolises in effect. Such seminal souls are hardly come by during times other than when a divine descent takes place, and one must therefore make the best use of history and heritage to keep going along the royal avenue to freedom.
85. Silent work achieves most. But conviction falters and original course is altered. Here lies the tragedy.
86. একটি চরিত্রবান ব্যক্তি আজও জগত তোলপাড় করে দিতে পারেন আধ্যাত্মিক প্রবাহ বইয়ে | কিন্তু তাঁর দেখা ত' পাই না | সবই দেখছি সঙ্ঘগত স্বার্থসিদ্ধিতে হতাদর্শপ্রায় |
87. Gandhiji is not my hero, Swamiji is. The two are poles apart in every element, in every fibre of their being. Gandhiji weakened the Hindus, Swamiji strengthened them. If this nation has to rise, it will have to shift stance from Gandhiji to Swamiji.
88. Gandhiji experimented with India's fate and sealed it. Swamiji realised Brahman under Paramahamsa's preceptorship before fulfilling the promise of eternal India rolling down the Himālayas like the life-giving Gangā. Had Swamiji lived another forty years, India would have been spared Gandhiji's debilitating leadership and would have manfully risen as a nation. Even now there is time. Study Swamiji and relocate your national stance. Read Swamiji's 'Svadesh Mantra' and build India.
89. Why is India secular? Because Hindus are in majority. Demography is changing. Will secularism last when Muslims outnumber Hindus?
90. ভেতরে ভগবান | বোধ নেই | তাই ত' বাইরে শয়তান দর্শন | নইলে ক্ষমতা কি শয়তানের টিকে থাকার ?
91. The life of love is the life of light.
92. The problem with most Hindus is that they are unaware of the tenets of Islam and imagine it to be friendly towards Hinduism.
93. This attempt to divide Hindus into antithetical groups is mischievous, nay, positively evil, and those who are doing it for petty self-interest will be doomed by karmic laws. Sanātan solidarity must be maintained at any cost and to this end my life's energy is devoted. Come ye by the dozens and join me in this crusade against internal and external enemies hell-bent upon destroying Bhāratvarsha by destroying Sanātanis and their spiritual culture.
94. Pakistan will be peaceful once it is fully Sanātani again. Till then violence will keep on tormenting it. Born out of the mutilation of the motherland, can Pakistan expect mercy from the impartial hands of Karma?
95. সাধুর ব্রহ্মচর্য করেও যখন পৌরুষ জাগে না, তখন সে নিষ্ফল সংযমের সার্থকতা কি ? স্বামীজী পৌরুষ, সাহসিকতা, মহা বীর্যের উদ্বোধন চেয়েছিলেন | কোথায় সেই বলবীর্য ?
96. Swamiji had a masculinity which he failed to awaken in his followers. No wonder he lamented his failure in his dying days.
97. 🕉 Let Sanātanis unite under this symbol of God that is common to all Sanātan sects.
98. THE DEMOGRAPHIC DANGER
Demographic change poses a major threat to West Europe today, no less to India. The problem is with the ideology which needs effective countering. Politicians pandering to minority vanities are the worst enemies of mankind today. The best way to tackle the problem is to educate oneself and others about the radical theology of the faith which threatens by 'divine' doctrine and injunction to bring the whole world under its absolutist sway. History is replete with civilisations being wiped out by its fanatical violence. History repeats, is about to repeat unless we take guard now.
99. Brilliant Hindus instead of working against Hindu interests ought to work for the same. Shame on those who being Sanātanis betray their own!
100. Sanātan solidarity is sought. Read Swami Vivekananda's 'Lectures from Colombo to Almora'.

SAMBHAVĀMI YUGE YUGE ... 1
SAMBHAVĀMI YUGE YUGE ... 1
Man is slave to circumstance. The free man is rare. And yet how passionately the slave clings to its chains in the name of personal rights!
The dust of desire has clouded vision. Love of the little has so settled in that the universal has been obliterated from sight. Insight is missing as a feast of the eyes in objects sensuous has assumed omnipresence with a misguided mind making its myriad mischiefs staple to his crass consumption.
Man professes love but it is all trade in the senses. Located in the lowest three centres of consciousness, what does he know of love? Love corrupted, light dimmed, desires darkening life's discourse, whither moveth man but to a blind destruction?
But the Lord is merciful. He descends from time to time whenever the load of life becomes unbearable and a piteous cry goes out from the heart of man, "O Lord, save us!" The Lord listens to the passionate pleas of the pious and assumes earthly form to sport and deliver.
Such an hour has come again when He must reappear amongst us to deliver us from destruction, to destroy the evil-minded, to protect the pious and to reestablish righteousness that is nowhere to be seen today. He is the embodiment of the Sanātan Dharma and He shall set the Yugadharmachakra in motion once more to the life and light of all.

RUN IT WELL AND RUN NOT OUT OF TIME
RUN IT WELL AND RUN NOT OUT OF TIME
The inability to focus and concentrate thought-content in a few words is the reason why our programmes run short of time. Anchors introduce speakers too long for speakers to get time enough to speak. Invariably the initial speakers take up too much time leaving the latter ones barely minutes to deliver their words. This sort of mismanagement of time mustn't be.
Effective moderation requires effective planning. The available time must be apportioned wisely, limiting the number of speakers and sticking to time-limits. Elaborate introduction and conclusive thanksgiving to each speaker by the anchor kills time unduly. This must be avoided. It is better to keep the number of speakers fewer in such programmes that would allow each such greater delivery-time. Also, such wastage of time by way of musical introduction, interlude and conclusion must be avoided in a tight programme schedule. Most important is skilful moderation of the programme which unfortunately never is. Thank you.

LET NOT THE SPIRIT SINK INTO MADNESS
LET NOT THE SPIRIT SINK INTO MADNESS
My mother is a human being, not a cow. Thank you. The proposition of certain spiritual leaders exhorting the government to declare the cow 'Rāshtra Mātā' is preposterous. While veneration of the cow which is even scripturally sanctioned is doubtlessly a noble attitude, to aver that it is not an animal but is in a separate category altogether as 'Mother of the Nation' is stretching things a bit too far. Such hyperstretch of religious conviction is tantamount to madness and cannot be counted as spiritual at all. The cow like all sentient beings is in essence the Spirit but cannot be singularly ascribed the epithet of 'Rāshtra Mātā'. I do not know a single human being who has been born of a cow despite the fact that most humans have been bred and brought up, fed and preserved on the cow's milk and its related products. Such nourishment derived from the cow's milk does not however make the cow the mother of man. That much for 'Rāshtra Mātā'. The episode in regard to this involving Swami Vivekananda and the propagator (prachārak) of the 'Cow Protection Society' ('Gorakshani Samiti') is pertinent. Swamiji's observations replete with devastating sarcastic wit is worth remembering. The nation ought to follow this modern sage of age-old wisdom if it aspires to rise to the due position of the spiritual preceptor of the world ('Vishva Guru'). Listening to half-cracked brains preaching mythological stuff as if they are literal truths to be followed will lead us back to the dark ages. Beware! Let discretion direct devotion. 🕉

STICK TO THE YUGĀVATĀR AND THE YUGĀCHĀRYA
STICK TO THE YUGĀVATĀR AND THE YUGĀCHĀRYA
The resurrection of the Sanātan Dharm must be along the right lines. We must not revert to regressive practices and modes but must be progressive in every phase of this resurrection. The Shrutis being eternal will automatically persist but the Smritis must be duly adjusted as per modern necessities. The evolution of the race must not be impeded by institutionalising archaic practices but the bars that thwart the forward movement of the race must be carefully removed to allow the principles of the Shrutis due fulfilment in practice. Thus the nation will advance along the blueprint laid down by the Rishis and not as per the whim of every politically motivated selfish propagator of myths masquerading as real religion.
Real religion is philosophy, the science of the Spirit, and not fantastic tales bearing no relation to actual reality. The inner essence of these mythological tales must be absorbed in the light of the Upanishads and applied duly, not their hyperbolic narratives believed in as having happened as described in Purānic texts. Discrimination, discernment, judgement lost, the country fall into superstition, into weakness, into ruin. This must not be. Hence the attempted popularisation of jnānmishra bhakti (devotion admixed with discrimination) by the Avatār of the Age, Sri Ramakrishna, and his principal disciple, Swami Vivekananda.

MESSAGES GALORE ... 113
MESSAGES GALORE ... 113
1. চাই ইষ্টনিষ্ঠা, ভগবতপদে ঐকান্তিক প্রেম | তবে হবে চিত্তশুদ্ধি, গুরুকৃপায় ইষ্টদর্শন | তৎপরে আত্মজ্ঞানে একত্ববোধ যার দ্বিতীয় নাস্তি |
2. 'মাম্মি', 'পাপা' বলছে বহুল ভারতবাসী মুম্বাইয়ের চলচ্চিত্রের নকলে | ঢং দেখলে বাঁচি না |
3. We have a lot to do for our beautiful people, especially the young girls who in marriage suffer agony owing to unsympathetic familial conditions. And yet what simplicity, what innocence they bear, what sublimity of soul, and all such with a loveliness of spirit that suffers but never loses its inner glow despite it all! Liberation of women along lines of love and light following the ancient traditions is the call of the Age in this our benighted motherland where as yet we fail to understand the great Manu's golden aphorism 'Yatra nariyastu pūjyantey ramantey tatra devata'.
4. Long after we are dead and gone, this beautiful motherland of ours will yet live to bear her fragrance across the world. And we will then with fondness remember from our altered abode that we, her children, did once serve her with our insignificant means made mighty with love to usher her on to this age of light when her grace abounds in the wide world, lifting souls unto the light within, deepening the very bonds of heart. We are this day working out that track, building bridges to unite all with the world within that waits in silence to in light and love and bliss and beauty be depth-revealed, be depth-revealed. 🕉
5.
Hold on tight
With all your might.
Ever keep track
And never lose sight.
Life is misery
If love be lost.
When bliss is there,
Why invite plight?
6. Be like the mango that sweetens the taste but māngo mut kuchh pratidān mey. Yeh jagat denewāle ki, lenewāle ki nahi.
7. ব্রহ্মাণ্ড ব্রহ্মের প্রতীক | এই প্রতীকের পূজা চলেছে অনাদি অনন্তকাল ধরে | চলবেও | অনাদি সৃষ্টি (প্রকাশ), অনন্ত সৃষ্টি (প্রকাশ) | ব্রহ্ম ত্রিকাল অবাধিত | তাই ব্রহ্মাণ্ডরূপী প্রতীকপূজাই ব্রহ্মোপলব্ধির ভক্তিমার্গ যার অন্তর্গত করকমলে ইষ্টপূজা | আবার জ্ঞানমার্গে বিচারপূর্বক সর্বস্ব বর্জন, নিজ মায়িক সত্তা পর্যন্ত সূক্ষ্মাতিসূক্ষ্মরূপ অবধি, তৎপরে কৈবল্যপ্রাপ্তি, পরে বুত্থানপশ্চাৎ সমস্ত ব্রহ্মাণ্ডের স্বরূপদর্শন নবোন্মেষিত দৃষ্টিতে | তখন সেই বহুমধ্যে একত্ববোধ, বহুর পূজা একজ্ঞানে | তখন আর 'তখন' নেই---'এখন', 'সেথায়' নেই---'হেথায়', প্রতীক নয়---চিন্ময় রূপ দর্শন, স্পর্শন, আলিঙ্গন, সমাধি, বুত্থান, পুনঃ প্রেমপরিক্রমণ |
8. Believe in yourself, not in your stars.
9. Read the Ramāyan and the Mahābhārat. Then encourage your children to do so. Hold religious reading sessions at home.
10. In the wake of rising Hindu-consciousness the opponents of Hinduism have suddenly turned hyper-Constitutionalists.
11. Mā, not Mummy.
12. Fame is not the test of spirituality for a Guru. Internationally famous Gurus are often spiritually hollow. In silence teaches the realised soul.
13. Do not keep your parents in old age home. Your mother kept you in her womb, breast-fed you, remember.
14. Flood Bhāratvarsh with Ramakrishna temples and Ramakrishna Mission centres. May Thākur-Mā bless our motherland and keep the Sanātan flag flying.
15. Hindus, beware of proselytising Islam and Christianity! Convert not to these faiths. Strengthen your own Dharm, the Sanātan Dharm.
16. Muslim fertility-rate in India well exceeds that of the Hindus. The demographic change thereof augurs not well for Bhāratvarsh.
17. Brāhmans must not forsake the study of Sanskrit. They are the custodians of the Sanātan Dharm. 🕉
18. ভগবদ্ভক্তিই সার |
19. Do not westernise India. Return to roots. This is Punyabhumi Bhāratvarsh and must remain so. 🕉
20. সামান্য বুদ্ধি দিয়ে কি বৃহৎ সত্য ধারণা করা যায়? তাই এত অশ্রদ্ধা, নাস্তিকতা, ধর্মবিরোধীতা |
21. প্রথম আবশ্যক স্থিরতা | অশান্তচিত্ত পদে পদে ভুল করে, ঠকে | সাধুসঙ্গে ঈশ্বরে অনুরাগ জন্মে | প্রভুর স্মরণমননে মন শান্ত হয় | পরিশেষে সমাহিত চিত্তে স্বরূপদর্শন |
22. Strike at the roots of religious roguery. Trimming the shoots will scarce mend matters. Toxic theology must be rooted out. The leaves then will freshen green again.
23. 🕉 Jnānvāpi Mandir 🕉
24. The sin of killing cows is on all of us.
25. Life is not for personal achievement of an earthly kind but is for service to the motherland, to her culture and dharm.
26. সমাজের বৌদ্ধিক অধঃপতন হচ্ছে | পাশ্চাত্য ভোগবাদী সভ্যতার শিকার নাগরিকগণ | আশা গ্রামেগঞ্জে | ছেলেপিলেরা লেখাপড়া করে কই যে সমাজের উত্থান হবে ? বড়রা যদি তুচ্ছ বিষয়ভোগে ব্যস্ত থাকে, ত' কাদের কাছে শিখবে বাচ্চারা ? কাকে আদর্শ করে বড় হবে ? নিয়মানুবর্তিতা, অনুশাসন, ইন্দ্রিয়সংযম তথা মনঃসংযম কই ? বিক্ষিপ্তচিত্ত, বাণিজ্যিক, লোভাতুর সমাজ কি উন্নত প্রজন্মের জন্ম দেয় ? এখন ত' সবই নিম্নগামী লঘুমার্গে গমন | এভাবে চললে ত' দেশের ভবিষ্যৎ অন্ধকার | এখনই প্রতিকার প্রয়োজন |
27. ভাবের চর্চায় অর্থ ও শ্রী দুই আসে | তাই সরস্বতীর যথার্থ আরাধনায় লক্ষ্মীর সম্যক আগমন |
28. আজ এমন দুর্দিন যে ভাববাচক কথা বললে কেউ শোনে না | শুধু টাকা, টাকা আর টাকা---এইমাত্র ব্যক্ত ও গুপ্ত আকাঙ্ক্ষা |
29. যে জাতি অর্থলোলুপতায় ভাবকে বিসর্জন দিয়েছে, তার উত্থান এমত অবস্থায় অসম্ভব | অবস্থান্তরে হতে পারে |
30. In God's kingdom the Devil rules. Time for the Great Descent.
31.
You know who is a devotee?
A damn lazy person who expects God to do all his work.
32. Where is Bengal's commitment to Hindutva? 🕉
33. It is not good enough to rejoice at being the 4th largest economy of the world. We should keep progressing till we have reclaimed our historical numero uno position in this regard. Charaiveti! (Onward!)
34. Courage, comrades, and commitment to the cause! Above all, character, concentration on core content and consistency with a zeal to hold. Convert to the cause countless souls that on the border lie in crossed conference with conscience confused by care-fed lies. Eliminate the self and manifest the Many as a single body with a single aim, that of reestablishing Dharm in Sanātan Bhārat, our mistreated, molested, mutilated mother by murderous hands for a millennium now. Lokasangrahārtham is the clarion call. Unite! 🕉
35. আর কত হালকা হব? এবার যে দেখছি উড়ে যাব |
(This is an observation on the current state of progressive social levity.)
36. Evil will be eliminated. Krishna will resurrect himself from the ruins inflicted by Aurangzeb.
37. Life lived in the Spirit in accordance with the Geeta, in line with Guruvākya, is itself a continuous 'tarpan' for ancestors. 🕉
38. Cowardice is sin. Be brave, bold and defend the Sanātan Dharm. Reclaim lost Sanātan heritage. Do not cower in fear and apologise. 🕉
39. Secular when minority, theocratic when majority. Lovely duplicity!
40. Unapologetically affirm your Hindutva and defend the Sanātan Dharm. We must save Bhāratvarsh from being Abrahamised. 🕉
41. Apologetic representation by Hindus for the Sanātan cause is a weakness that first needs removal by effective Hindutva training. 🕉
42. Hindus must exhibit manhood to fight for their rights. No wonder Swamiji stressed so much on manhood, declaring it to be his life's message in a nutshell.
43. Demographic change is a major threat to Sanātan existence in Bhāratvarsh in the future. Partition must not repeat. Hindus, beware!
44. Nobody seems to understand that the 1300 year old persecution of Hindus by invaders stems from toxic theology. Unless that is addressed, the motherland is doomed.
Photo: Ram Swarup (left) and Sitaram Goel (right). Unless you read their writings, you will never understand the core issues concerning the destruction of Sanātan civilisation at the hands of invaders and their theologically inspired intolerant descendants.
47. Penetrate the moment and be free. Stand in the Eternal Presence. Nor past nor future is in frozen undulation. All movement has stopped. It is Consciousness Absolute that is Absolute Existence.
46. Unless Bengali Hindus become strong in defence of the Sanātan Dharm, the fate of Bengal will be the same as that of Bangladesh. Follow Swamiji in a manly manner and stop all effeminacy. Sense enjoyment may be deferred for some future date when things will be easier. Right now the Hindus are declining in strength day by day and history is being repeated. Build up the body politic of the Hindus and exhibit kshatriya valour. It is a shame to call oneself a follower of Ramakrishna-Vivekananda and yet behave like weaklings. Therefore, arise, awake and defend the Dharm. 🕉
Photo: This is the man who bled to death not for you to sing and dance in desirous delusion but for you to rise and defend the Sanātan Dharm and save your civilisation from falling into ruins at barbaric hands. Now determine your duty and do the needful.
47. Are 1313 years (712 CE--2025 CE) of invasive insult and injury not enough? Must Hindus still sleep?
48. Bhāratvarsh is the birthplace of the Hindus and if she dies, she shall be the crematorium of the Hindus. From Ānturghar to smashānghat extends the stretch of the Hindus here in Bhāratvarsh from time immemorial even as it extends from Kashmir to Kanyākumāri in space that has been rendered holy by the footfall of sages. Must Bhārat die? If she does, the world will become a forest of brutes prowling and preying on each other. Whither civilisation then? Therefore, arise and defend the Dharm, the eternal path to freedom and light, to bliss and well-being. May our ancestors bless us, those ash-clad sages who dared the heavens and released the fountain of eternal life in the heart of humanity! 🕉 Satya Sanātan!
49. We have a Prime Minister who is through and through a Sanātani, being blessed by Swami Ātmasthānandaji and brought up by the RSS.
50. Begging for donation while holding thousands of crores in the coffers has become the malady these days of spiritual organisations.
51. Rām and Krishna must now be principally preached as warriors in defence of the Dharm rather than in their other aspects.
52. If you are followers of Swami Vivekananda, then fight for the preservation of the Hindus. Your idle devotion Swamiji detested during his lifetime. Do not be deluded that serving humanity as Shiva incarnate will save the Hindus. You have to fight like Arjun did after powerful exhortation by Krishna. All these songs and dances, hospitals and schools, preaching soft scriptural principles will not help. You have been wiped out of Pakistan. You are being wiped out of Bangladesh. You have been wiped out of Kashmir. You are being persecuted in West Bengal. How can you still be deluded that your religiosity is on the right track? It is sheer cowardice. If the soldiers were as cowardly as you, you would not live a day. Therefore, give up this religio-spiritual pretence and learn to fight. Struggle, Swamiji said, is the sign of life. Ask yourself then, are you living?
53. Leaders are so irresponsible. The drainage system is so bad and they are indulging in inconsequential things.
54. If life be of two days, why waste it over trifles?
55. Does a responsible community populate so much?
56. If there is a uniform penal code, why not a uniform civil code?
57. It rains but drains not. In 21st century London-like Kolkata it waterlogs!
58. The revolutionaries bled so that rogues would rule?
59. Whither headed the world when the heads of states are headless? It's time to heed this and combat consequence head on.
60. Peace is necessary for prosperity. In a world of proliferating population and abounding poverty peace is the only solution.
61. Muslims must be given less of religious indoctrination and more of scientific training. Then they will be effective participants in the advancement of civilisation. Overmuch of theological training to the exclusion of science has kept them backward in a fast-moving world.
62. কিছু লোকের কাছে সব আছে | অধিকাংশের কাছে কিছু নেই | সংযম সম্বল |
63. মিতব্যয়ীতার দ্বারা বাঙালী আবার ক্রমে ধনী হতে পারে | স্বামীজী মিতব্যয়ী হতে বলেছেন |
64. এত ক্ষুদ্র মানসিকতা ! কেউ কারও ভাল দেখতে পারে না | মাৎসর্য্যপ্রবণ মন | এদিকে মুখরা, মনে মনে নিন্দুক, বাইরে ভদ্রতার ভান যতক্ষণ না গায়ে সামান্য খোঁচাটি লাগছে | তখন পূর্ণ পশুবৎ স্বভাব প্রকাশ পেয়ে যাচ্ছে, সভ্যতার মুখোশ খশে পড়েছে | এই হীন তমোভাব নিয়ে কি সমাজ সংস্কার হয় নাকি লোককল্যাণ হয় ? পরস্পর সংঘাত ভিন্ন এর গতি কি ? ক্ষীণজীবি মানুষের ক্ষুদ্রমনা আচরণ, তাই নিয়ে এত আস্ফালন ? বাংলার ভবিষ্যৎ কি ?
65. Grow much beyond the capacity of others to reach you. Outgrow people's personality-range and emerge a superwoman, a goddess of peerless presence, of attributes 64, perfect, potent, luminous, whole. The world is in need of such glorious ones with electric personality, dominant, divine. Love and light are the dual attributes of the divine. Manifest them in abundance and blissfully abide. Then out of the fullness of the heart spread the waves around and raise humanity. 🕉
66. ভাবের সম্মান না হলে উন্নতি অসম্ভব | চিন্তা, বুদ্ধি, ভাব---এ সবের প্রতি আগ্রহ, শ্রদ্ধা চাই | নইলে অবনতি রোধে কে ?
67. Let Prime Minister Narendra Modiji openly venerate Sri Ramakrishna as Ishvar-incarnate just as he does in regard to Shree Rām and Shree Krishna. The whole of Bhāratvarsh must accept Sri Ramakrishna for what he truly is and not relegate him to being just a saint or a sage of the modern times. But does Modiji who had in adolescence thrice unsuccessfully tried to join the Ramakrishna Mission consider Sri Ramakrishna as Shree Rām and Shree Krishna? If he does so, let him say so openly. It will go a great way towards fostering national well-being, for Ishvar in his latest incarnation is most suited for meeting the exigencies of the times, Himself having adjusted His teachings to the requirements of the Age. Failure to recognise the Avatār of the Age is not productive of the best benefits that His descent into mortal clay potentially brings. Hence it is of utmost moment that the ardent Sanātani that the PM is, he should try to see Sri Ramakrishna in the right light and activate his principles and the principles of his principal protégé, Swami Vivekananda, so that the spiritual evolution of Bhāratiyas and of humanity world over is hastened. In this, I reiterate, lies the well-being of all. And it is a curious feature that the monastic community in general in Bhārat are completely unaware of the true identity of Sri Ramakrishna as Ved-Purush Parabrahma, Nārāyan in narakāya (human body). They also need spiritual enlightenment in this regard for in effect fostering the solidarity of the Sanātanis in these treacherous times when they are being divided and weakened. Ramakrishna-Vivekananda would help the cause of lokasangraha (gathering in of the Sanātanis into a single unified body politic despite surface divergences of approach towards the Ātman/Paramātman. 🕉
68. Life is a stretch within limits. The moment the limits are approximated, death seizes. If the limits are somehow crossed, illumination results leading to freedom beyond bounds, all fastening fetters having fallen.
69. Break through the network of Māyā. Tear it apart and emerge free.
70. From alone to alone man proceeds amidst the delusion that he is with all. And then he discovers that he has never moved at all. All movement is Māyā and it has been this shadowy oscillation all the way about the axis of the One Presence.
71. বাঙালীরা আজও চেনেননি স্বামীজীকে | দক্ষিণ ভারতীয়েরা কিন্তু তাঁকে চিনেছিলেন ১৩৩ বছর আগে |
72. Mobile shut-down তেমন বিপজ্জনক নয় | Brain shut-down অধিক বিপজ্জনক | সমস্যা ত' ওই দ্বিতীয়টিকে নিয়ে | সমাজে, সংসারে চিন্তাভাবনার মূল্য কমে গেছে | পশুবৎ দু'পা দৃষ্টি | সেইমত অগ্রগতি, পশ্চাদ্গতিই বেশি |
73. It is presumptuous on the part of Muslim maulvis to attempt to honour Shree Rām as Imām-e-Hind. It is hardly an honour. Rather it is a terrible dishonour to label the Lord so, a boundless blasphemy. It is an insult to call Shree Bhagavān, who is the Lord and Master of all that is, an Imām of a country as the honorific Imām-e-Hind signifies.
74.
কলকাতা ডুবু ডুবু, জলে ভেসে যায় |
মম বলে হায় হায়, তমো বলে আয় |
75. অসন্তোষ দারিদ্রের চিহ্ন |
76. এত উচাটনে কি উন্নতি সম্ভব ?
77. ঝলমলে বুদ্ধি না হলে সরল হওয়া যায় না |
78. Peace is the greatest possession. The Self-possessed are peaceful.
79. Sanātan strength must not be exhibited by way of reaction to Muslim show of it but it must be a growth from within that will stand the test of testing times when courage of conviction will be called for.
80. দেবাসুরের সংগ্রাম আজও চলেছে | এখনও সেই দেবতাদেরই দুর্বৃত্ত দানবের হাতে ক্রমান্বয়ে প্রাথমিক পরাজয় | অবতার কি এবারও দানবদমন করবেন না?
81. অসুরের ওপর বিজয়লাভ ? নিত্য অসুরের সংখ্যা বাড়ছে |
82. শরীরবোধ দূর হলে ধর্মলাভ |
83. শাস্ত্র এবং শস্ত্র---এই উভয়েই সুসজ্জিত সনাতন সমাজ | আজ কি হল তার ?
84. Simplicity, sincerity and sublimity---these three things are necessary for spirituality.
85. যাঁরা জোরগলায় কলি যুগ রোধের কথা বলছেন, তাঁরাই বেশি করে কলি যুগের প্রতিনিধি | তাঁদের কথায় ও কাজে অনেক অন্তর |
86. হিন্দুরা কেন নিজেদের শক্তিমান করেন না ? শুধু প্রতিক্রিয়াশীল হলে কি চলে ? তাতে কি সনাতন সমাজ সবল হবে কস্মিনকালেও ?
87. রক্ষণশীলতা ও প্রগতিশীলতার সমন্বয় চাই, প্রতিক্রিয়াশীলতা নয় | হিন্দুর ভাগ্য হিন্দুর হাতে | বিধাতা কি করবেন ? চাই আত্মকৃপা |
88. ত্যাগীর এত লোকমান্যের বাসনা কেন ?
89. Social media has shown how hollow people by and large are, oblivious of their divine depths.
90. শ্রদ্ধাবিবর্জিত উচ্চশিক্ষার দ্বারা দেশের শত্রু তৈরি হচ্ছে কাতারে কাতারে | নিছক বৌদ্ধিক বিকাশের দ্বারা ত' আর চিত্তশুদ্ধি ঘটে না | তার জন্য ব্রহ্মচর্য ব্রত যথাযথ পালন করতে হয় | নইলে বুদ্ধিমানের কুবুদ্ধিমান হওয়ার সম্ভাবনাটা অধিক থাকে | তখন সে স্বদেশস্বার্থ ভুলে গিয়ে আত্মস্বার্থ ও শত্রুস্বার্থ দেখতেই ব্যগ্র হয় | এ ধরণের স্বদেশবৈরী, স্বীয় সংস্কৃতিবৈরী স্বার্থশিক্ষিতের সংখ্যা বেশি বেড়ে গেলে বিপদ | এখন দেশের সেই অবস্থা | অতএব, সম্মুখে সংকট !
91. Truthfulness is the call of this Age where the Avatār himself exemplified it during his earthly sojourn. All other austerities are time-consuming and hard of attainment. He who holds on to truth, lies on the lap of the Lord. These are the words of Thakur and must be reposed faith in. The light within ever shines but is obscured by the dust of desire. As soon as the breeze of discrimination blows, the cloud-cover shifts, revealing the effulgent sun behind. Such are the divine depths within that must be plumbed and peace attained that passeth understanding. 🕉
92. The young, the energetic and the inspired must labour for the light of all. And this light consists in the Spirit within, not in its outer dark cover that the body is. The Atman is the source of all light. The mind and the body are non-luminous chambers lit up by the light of the Atman which is self-luminous. Seek the Atman. It is you in essence. All else is Its projection, not Itself as such.
93. Cast aside all superstition and incessantly take the Name of the Lord. The Lord and His Name are one. 🕉
94. শত্রুবোধ থাকা ভাল | নইলে শত্রুর হাতে ধ্বংস হতে হয় | যে জাতির শত্রুবোধ নেই, তার ধ্বংস অনিবার্য |
95. Stop trading in the name of God. If you wish to trade, do so in an ethical manner and not by cheating people by inducing superstition.
96. Our poor people are moral. The force of labour keeps them pure. 'Daridradebo bhava!'
97. ভক্তির মধ্যেও ক্ষাত্রবীর্য চাই | নইলে জাতি শক্তিমান হবে না | মহাশক্তির উদ্বোধন হ'ক | সাহিত্যে, সঙ্গীতে, সংস্কৃতির প্রতিটি ক্ষেত্রে বলবীর্যের বিকাশ হ'ক | এই হেতুই স্বামীজী বলেছিলেন যে তাঁর জীবনবার্তার সমষ্টি মাত্র একটি শব্দে প্রকাশ সম্ভব---তা হ'ল পৌরুষ |
98. The younger generations are rising. They will cast aside all superstition and establish the pure religion of the Vedas. 🕉
99. সুরাসুরের ক্রীড়াযুদ্ধ চলেছে | দেখা যাক দেব জেতে না দানব জেতে ?
100. It seems the world has become irresponsible towards the fate that awaits it.

THE SCOURGE OF CONVERSION ... 1
THE SCOURGE OF CONVERSION ... 1
Do not pervert our children from the Sanātan Dharm to Christianity and Islam. To do so is to readmit a PhD scholar to a Montessori school. Christian and Muslim preachers, follow the best elements of your own faiths and become better human beings instead of wasting your lives and that of others by engaging in this unholy practice of converting others even if your faiths exhort you to do so. Do not subscribe to the political elements of your faiths. Rather focus on their spiritual elements. That way you will be a blessing unto all. Right now this abuse of the Constitutional freedom to proselytise in India is hurting India's civilisational interests and must not be engaged in. Social tension arises out of such proselytism. India's best interests will be preserved in the harmonious maintenance of diversity which conversion completely destroys. It is this thousand year conversion of Hindus to Islam that eventually led to Partition. History repeats itself and we are seeing the nastiest things in this regard happen in front of our very eyes. Thus, we must all resist, nay eliminate, this scourge of Abrahamic conversion and build a healthy harmonious society that helps advance all citizens to their divine destination. For this to happen Hindus must study their spiritual traditions, faiths and philosophies and practise their best tenets to the good of all. 🕉

A BENEDICTION
A BENEDICTION
Be utterly confident, supremely so, without being arrogant, strength merged in sublime surrender to the Supreme. A positive mindset works wonders. Never be in despair even in the teeth of trouble as the sunlit summit of truth and light are just near the horizon as yet in the womb of futurity, approaching nonetheless with steady steps unto your expanding universe even as your concentration contracts to lesser and lesser zones till in pointed end it dives into wholeness, the integrated essence where duality has ceased.
Faith in one's self is an attribute that conquers all, that fearless self-belief which is the stuff of great souls that have striven and achieved to transform life and civilisation. The tranquil mind is unruffled by surface disturbances as it quietly broods on the eternal verities of life. The sattva predominates and suppresses rajas and tamas to illumine the being. The sunlit mansion becomes a heaven on earth, the radiance spreading through the casements to the environs, illumining all who chance to come within the charmed sphere with a willing mind, a wholesome heart and a submissive spirit. The soul rendered resplendent then shines as a beacon of light in the turbulent sea of desires that afflict the mortal man. Such a one who abides in the Self or in the Beloved is a blessing unto mankind and has attained to supreme peace. Be thou such a one! Let the mind be emptied of earthly aught. Let the soul be chastened with the Ganga of pure flow. Let the heart be focussed on the One Beloved whose form in broken trifurcate fills it with blissful waves from end to end. May life be dedicated to the Ishtadevatā now and forever! 🕉

MERCENARIES MASQUERADING AS MESSIAHS
MERCENARIES MASQUERADING AS MESSIAHS
Fraudulent gurus galore are operating freely, minting millions while fooling people in the name of high-sounding spiritual principles which they themselves do not practise but use to good personal profit-making effect. It is, thus, imperative that the Ramakrishna Mission goes on a war-footing in their propagation programme, much like Swamiji wanted, that aggressive missionary zeal which the founding Āchārya of the Ramakrishna Mission had aspired for, hopefully not in vain.
Scientific education is the way out, the cultivation of scepticism which Einstein had averred was his birthright, that attribute of investigation and inquiry which is the bedrock of both science and spirituality as was affirmed by Swamiji himself.
The masses must not be thus deluded by fraudulent gurus who are often bereft of both knowledge and a progressive attitude that would have otherwise helped evolve society along luminous lines, but are regressive and patriarchal in their preaching, quoting for good measure some quaint scriptural passages to suit convenience. The masses are simple, gullible folks who pin implicit faith in these fraudulent pretentious preceptors and are siphoned of money and morality as they are misled by these mercenaries masquerading as Messiahs. It is a sorry state of affairs indeed, especially as one feels helpless to prevent these fraud gurus from misutilising our Sanātan scriptures to swindle the people through their charging of exorbitant fees for their preaching and teaching programmes.
Religion should be taught only by qualified gurus who have had spiritual realisations of a high order, if not the ultimate of Ātmajnān, the latter realisation, though, qualifying the preceptor perfectly to preach to his pupils and the people. If commerce dictates spiritual preaching, we are indeed in both a spiritual and a material mess, and the sooner well-intentioned truly honest spiritual personalities and institutions come forward to redress the issue the better. Till then let us put in our individual and collective effort to raise awareness among the masses. Social media provides us a perfect platform to do so. 🕉

THANK YOU, MONSIEUR ROLLAND
THANK YOU, MONSIEUR ROLLAND
The great European savant who spread the message of Ramakrishna-Vivekananda across the western world through his twin biographical studies on the divine duo. Posterity has and forever will owe indebtedness to him who in the inter-war years had tried his utmost to lower the political temperature of the world through a myriad measures amongst which his priceless biographies of the swan and the lion doubtlessly stood out as his premier contributions. Written to cool the world then, a task he eminently failed in owing to historical reasons, his works remain perennial pathfinder for future humanity as it progresses through the blind alleyways of tortuous Māyā unto the sunlit summit of spiritual realisation. Monsieur Rolland, we can never thank you enough. Here in India we express our reverence in quite another way, perhaps not so foreign to you after your protracted association with Ramakrishna-Vivekananda. Our humble prostration at your hallowed feet. Blessed be the mother that had borne you! 🕉

POESY: THE LOTUS BLOOMS
THE LOTUS BLOOMS
Float like a lotus on water.
Water wets it not.
So may the world
With all its fetters
Bind not you
Who have given all up
Unto the Lord of love,
Vāsudev Krishna Bhagavān
Who sang the Song Celestial
That resonates through space and time,
Age after age,
Aeon after aeon,
Unto the present moment
Of shining memory,
Of shifting bounds
And brightening horizon,
Till in the noonshine of blissful vision
The veil lifts
And lifts you up
Unto ethereal heights
Of resplendent bliss,
And leaves you thence
On earth hither
At the cowdust hour
To glide by the Yamunā,
Listening rapt to the Yaman
Flowing from the flute
Of the flautist perennial,
The Lord of notes,
Of the split spectrum
In its coloured joy,
The peacock-plumed one,
The one and only one who plays,
Who sports in the groves,
By the riverside banks
And the hills that pull
With their heightened charm.
Live by Him and live in Him,
The primal and the final friend
Who never leaves but ever loves
Till life and death have all ceased
In ecstasy that endless is.
Even today the Rās goes on
In eternal Vrindāvan's eternal groves,
The Nidhu which in nightly dance
Yet holds them all,
In a sublime mix,
Thirty-two thousand and two, one, six.

SANĀTAN DHARM AND SANĀTANIS UNDER ATTACK ... 1
SANĀTAN DHARM AND SANĀTANIS UNDER ATTACK ... 1
Today the Sanātan Dharm and the Sanātanis are under attack from all sides. Abrahamic proselytism is the biggest threat which we must resist with all our might. Wish the Ramakrishna Mission were more active in defending the Hindus. They ought to lead the charge as the leading spiritual organisation of the Sanātanis. [N.B. Sanātani = Hindu]
Hindus must unite. Sectarian fights over surface theological differences ought to be kept aside and a general unity sought under the umbrella of the unifying divine symbol of the 🕉. Political intervention to divide the Hindus must be thwarted and Sanātan solidarity achieved through mutual love and respect. Above all, Sanātanis must study the Sanātan scriptures and practise their dharm. If we stand on the bedrock of character forged in the fire of spiritual austerity, none will be able to prevail against us. Rather our influence will spread and win us adherents in the form of reverts to the Sanātan fold and fresh entrants from non-Sanātani faiths. The Dharm is under attack and the Dharm practised properly is its greatest defence. This is the solution.

বাঙালীরা একটু লেখাপড়া করলেই জানতে পারবে ১৯৪৬এ ১৬ অগস্ট কলকাতার বুকে কি ঘটেছিল, তারপর নোয়াখালি তথা গোটা পূর্ববঙ্গে কী নারকীয় অত্যাচার সহ্য করতে হয়েছিল হিন্দুদের যার ফলে শেষে জিন্নার পরিকল্পনা মত দেশভাগ হয়েছিল | হয়ত' 'দা বেঙ্গল ফাইলস' ছবিটা দেখলে সে বিষয়ে সাধারণ বাঙালী একটা আঁচ পেত | কিন্তু ছবিটা প্রেক্ষাগৃহ না পেলে ত' আর বাঙালী সে সুযোগ পাবে না | বাংলা বিভক্ত হয়ে পূর্ব পাকিস্তান, পরে বাংলাদেশ হয়েছিল | দেশভাগের পরে পশ্চিম ও পূর্ব পাকিস্তানে সমানে হিন্দুনিগ্রহ হয়েছে | আজও পাকিস্তান ও বাংলাদেশে তা অব্যাহত |
গণমাধ্যমের যুগ | নিছক প্রেক্ষাগৃহে চলচ্চিত্র দেখাতে দেওয়া না হলেই কি সত্য চাপা যাবে ? যাবে না | যদি বাঙালীরা আলস্য ত্যাগ করে একটু পড়াশোনা করে, ত' সব জলের মত পরিষ্কার হয়ে যাবে | এ ত' একটি বছরের কথা মাত্র | হিন্দু ত' মুসলমান আক্রমণকারীদের দ্বারা সেই ৬৩৬ সাল থেকে আক্রান্ত, অর্থাৎ, প্রায় ১৪০০ বছর | ৭১২ সালে সিন্ধুপতন | সেই সময় থেকেই ত' হিন্দুর মন্দির ধ্বংস, সংস্কৃতিবিনাশ, হিন্দু নারীর বলাৎকার, আরব বাজারে দুই দিনারে বিক্রয়, হিন্দুহনন, ধর্মান্তরণ, আরও কত অকথ্য অত্যাচার | এসব যদি বাঙালীরা না জানতে চায় আলস্য ও ইন্দ্রিয়াসক্তিহেতু, ত' একটি চলচ্চিত্র সেই আত্মবিস্মৃত জাতিকে কতটা জাগাতে পারত সে বিষয়ে সন্দেহ থেকে যায় | অতএব, ছবিটা না দেখতে পেলে খুব যে একটা কিছু ক্ষতি হবে চেতনার, তা মনে হয় না | এই ভাবে সান্ত্বনা পাওয়া আর কি |

🕉 SPIRITUAL INSTRUCTIONS 🕉
🕉 SPIRITUAL INSTRUCTIONS 🕉
There is a nirgun nirākār essence in you which you are. Its manifestation this outer mind-body entity is which you in error identify yourself with. The Guru is to be worshipped, none else, none else, none else ever. He is your all in all and will guide you to this innermost glory. Therefore, focus wholly and with complete concentration on the Guru. Only bear his instructions and carry them out to perfection with absolute allegiance. May you be illumined! Tat tvam asi! 🕉
P.S. Constancy of will and fullness of concentration will take you to Atmajnān. The Guru forever holds, never forsakes. He is the only one to be worshipped. His words are Veda. His form is the temple. His mind is the vigraha and his soul is the anantasagar which is Parabrahma. 'Gurur sākshāt Parabrahma Tasmai Shree Gurave namaha.' The Guru and the shishyā are one in essence. Post-realisation all distinctions disappear. 🕉
Ego is the principal hindrance to arriving at the essential principle, that of Ātmajnān. Absolute self-surrender is necessary to witness the Self. The slightest trace of ego blocks vision. Therefore, in the spiritual path the means is obliteration of the ego. That comes easy to the one who is simplicity itself. But for the crooked realisation cones not till the twisted self is straightened. The Geetā says, "Bhidyatey hridayagranthi chhindanti sarvasangshayā" when the realisation of the Self dawns in samādhi. The knots of the heart are sundered and all doubts are dispelled. This simplicity, if it be there through past good karma, makes spiritual progress possible. The crooked never reach the goal. Desires galore, they bar the way and take one to the alleyways of the material world far from the royal avenue of God. A life is wasted in chasing mirage when with simplicity, rectitude and the spirit of surrender to the preceptor the ultimate purpose of life could have been achieved. But who cares to follow the Guru? Omniscience before Self-realisation is the pitiable state of all. Therefore, be you different and align yourself to the preceptor's laid-out principles, to his inspired instructions, and make a heaven out of life. Transcend life itself to arrive at the Truth which you in essence are. Be blessed! 🕉
