ARISE! AWAKE! ... 2

Krishna was a kshatriya warrior and wielding weapons, defeating demons and as king administering his subjects more often than playing the flute and dancing with the gopis as seems to be the prevalent narrative these days. He was valour personified and faced the brute in the face. Today we should worship this kshatriya king in Krishna and awaken our own kshātravirya rather than dwell only on his Vrindāvan leelā of music and dance in sublime ecstasy. At a time when Sanātan Dharma, Sanātan sanskriti (culture) and Sanātan savyatā (civilisation) are in peril, does Krishna not expect his followers to exhibit a modicum of manhood? Meditate on this and alter devotional stance so long as all of the subcontinent has not been won over to the Sanātan Dharma. We must spread the Sanātan Dharma aggressively with missionary zeal across the subcontinent and across the wide world. The difficulties in Pakistan, Bangladesh and Afghanistan will have to be circumvented online. In India we have more favourable circumstances as yet and we must make full use of it. In foreign countries both online and offline propagation must be undertaken and vigorously supported. Sanātan solidarity will achieve it. Practise the dharmic daily disciplines and build your spiritual life. As Swamiji said, "Accumulate power in silence." Do it and a wonderful change in Sanātan samāj you will see happening. To that end my good wishes and directed will-force. 🕉
