Sugata Bose @Deepanjan Mitra : Your original post that you had sent me on Whatsapp and which I had forthwith posted on my Facebook profile wall took off like an eagle on its high wings and flooded social media till it reached every quarter that mattered. It has literally become viral since and is doing yeoman service to the cause of resurrecting the memory of this martyr to the motherland whose life and legacy his small-minded political opponents had deliberately cast into the dungeon of history much like Sheikh Abdullah's perfidious design of detention of the hero in coarse confinement that led to his untimely death, a deal done unto him by political plotting it seems. His life having been snuffed out, his memory was erased from the minds of the masses by a carefully crafted left-leaning political dispensation. But look at the irony of it all. Here we behold the great communist leader Hiren Mukerjee appraising the life and achievements of Dr. Syamaprasad Mookerjee and praising him in glowing terms as one of the greatest Parliamentarians, a great patriot dedicated totally to the cause of the nation, a committed democrat and a completely non-communal personality of seminal attainments. The resurfacing of this video clip, courtesy your person, has been disastrous for leftist anti-Syamaprasad propaganda and has been a hammerblow from which they can now not recover. Glory unto the great man and blessings unto you, Deepanjan, for bringing to the fore so timely this video clip in this the sesquicentennial anniversary of Dr. Mookerjee. 🕉 Hindu!

Sugata Bose @Bolaka Roy (Nivedita Roy) : You are indeed Nivedita of dedicated devotion. Such constancy of daily devotions and preceptor-prostration thereof, rare indeed in a world of fractured features and irregular execution. 

Sugata Bose @Saurav Ganguly : Rectified the error in spelling. Thank you for pointing it out. Thus we progress in the collective of coordinated living called society. Thank you again.

Sugata Bose @Niranjan Saha : A tough ask indeed. Am trying to study the lives of these greats. Emulation shall follow suit hopefully in whatever moderate measure this frail form in flesh and blood will permit. Discipleship, though, has already been committed to Ramakrishna-Vivekananda and cannot be revoked. In point of fact these two seminal giants of nationalism who in succession founded and consolidated the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangha were no less inspired by the divine duo themselves. Hence, displacement of devotion is not called for in order to appreciate and be inspired by the greats who have shaped the destiny of our motherland in modern times among which Dr. Hedgewar and Guruji Golwalkar occupy pride of place as subsequent national developments have testified to. Therefore, I shall retain my primary position in patriotism where I have since youth belonged and shall not alter stance in the evening of my life despite reserving for myself the right to revere all that is and has been glorious in our nation's chequered history. However, a hearty thankfulness for your wise counsel. 🕉 Hindu!

Sugata Bose @Sadhan Kumar : Read well the life of Guruji Golwalkar. Read Swami well as well. Read Eknath Ranade's collection of Swamiji's sayings in regard to nationalism. Why should anybody be obliged to enlighten you in any matter as such where self-effort would be more efficacious? 🕉 Hindu!

Sugata Bose @Debaprasad Bhattacharya : To the best of my knowledge it was Guruji Golwalkar and not Dr. Hedgewar who was initiated by Swami Akhandanandaji.

Sugata Bose @Sujit Ray : Really ridiculous? Pray, how?

Sugata Bose @Tamash Majumdar : হায়, না বোঝার বোঝা বয়ে বেড়াচ্ছিলেন এযাবৎ ! যাক, বোধোদয় হ'ল যখন, বুঝে বোঝা নামল তখন | বেশ, বেশ ! 🕉 হিন্দু !

Sugata Bose @jihadwatchRS : How do you assess the jihad scene in India now? Is India in imminent danger of being run over by progressive demographic change and transformed into an Islamic nation eventually?

Sugata Bose @Randeep Bhattacharya : Read thoroughly RSS literature before coming to conclusion. Their contribution towards nation-building is seminal. It is work in progress.

Sugata Bose @Rohini Jalan : Are you aware that your academic qualification is of the very highest order in the world, that you belong to the top tier of scholars in the world?

Sugata Bose @Khalid Umar : Khalid Umar Now you have edited it right by adding the inverted commas. Else it were better as 'incompatibility' as the implied sarcasm in using the word 'compatibility' bereft of the said punctuation might have missed most. Or, so I thought at least. That it was deliberately kept subtle by planting the word 'compatibility' instead of its more obvious antonym missed me though, although now I get to see its understated intent in reverse implication. Hence. 🕉 Hindu!

Sugata Bose @PMO India : Why pay homage to Gandhi every now and again instead of at the feet of the armed revolutionaries for freedom whose sacrifices for the nation are matchless?

Sugata Bose @Sarmistha Banerjee : Agnimitra Paul has made this error now twice in two months. The first time was last month on the death anniversary of Sir Ashutosh Mookerjee (25th May) and now on the birth anniversary this month again (29th June). Two days, two photographs, and both these of persons other than the subject himself. Reverential memory indeed!

Sugata Bose @Sutapa Lahiri : কিন্তু সে হিসেবের গতি সূক্ষ্ম, প্রায়ই লোকচক্ষুর অন্তরালে থাকে, অর্থাৎ, আজকের দুষ্কর্মের ফল প্রাপ্ত হয় আগামীকাল সর্বসমক্ষে কিন্তু অন্যত্র, 'অন্য কোনখানে', যার কার্যকারণ-সম্বন্ধ স্থূলদৃষ্টি মানুষ খুঁজে পায় না যদিও ফলরূপ ঘটনাপ্রবাহ চোখের সামনেই ঘটতে থাকে নিকটে অথবা দূরে | ইতিহাসের অমোঘ গতি এভাবেই চলতে থাকে যুগ হতে যুগান্তরে | ঐতিহাসিক তার কতটুকু খবর পায় ? কিই বা তার ব্যাখ্যার সামর্থ ? এর সূক্ষ্মাতিসূক্ষ্ম গতিপথ ঋষিদৃষ্টিকেই এড়িয়ে যায়, অন্যে পরে কা কথা ! আবার শ্রীরামকৃষ্ণ বলেছেন, "মায়ার কার্যে অনেক গোলমাল আছে |" সত্যিই ত' তাই | ইসলাম ও খ্রীষ্টধর্মের রাজনৈতিক উত্থানের বিশ্বজোড়া কী ভয়াবহ গতিপথ ! সভ্যতার পর সভ্যতা ধ্বংস করে এই দুই পন্থার জগতে প্রতিষ্ঠা তরবারির ধারে | কে করবে তার হিসেব ? কে মেলাবে কর্মফল ? এই অসাম্যের মায়াময় জগতপ্রপঞ্চে কি আদৌ বিচারের সাম্য প্রাপ্ত হয় ?

Sugata Bose @Disciple : I am proud of you. But you must not be proud but self-confident. Remember, humility is the hallmark of the great, pride the precursor of precipitation. Now imagine how vane the clouds are before they yield their droplets or simply burst when they cannot contain themselves in their 'vanity foul', to pilfer from Thackeray this epithet in antithesis (Vanity Fair).

Sugata Bose @Disciple : My Me, how foul is your focus? A veritable core of a locus? All move outwards, you move corewards?

Sugata Bose @Oneindia News : Is she contemplating breaking through Bangladesh borders?

Sugata Bose @Satyaiit Ray was decorated with the Legion de Honour by the French President Francois Mitterand in 1989, in the bicentennial year of the French Revolution.

Sugata Bose @Piya Sharma : A good heart shows up in the face to brighten it up with beauty.

Sugata Bose @Arunangshu Mandal : আর অঘোষিতদের কি ঘাটে দেবেন ? 🕉 গঙ্গা ! গঙ্গা !

Sugata Bose @YouTube [PAATHHistory] : The interviewer (Shekhar Bhowmick) is superficial. He has failed to take the conversation into deeper realms. His frequent interruptions and suggestions of words and phrases have not allowed the interviewee (Prof. Swapan Basu) the occasion to dive deeper into his reminiscences what ought to have been the proper way to conduct this interview. Perhaps the two persons were not well-matched personality-wise. There is a preponderance of the interviewer in this conversation most unfortunately which is not quite the way it ought to be. Concise questioning, precision in proposition of subject and a general inconspicuousness of the interviewer would have done the deal better. The interviewee, though, was most precise, accurate in thinking and articulate whenever he was allowed the opportunity to speak. Rectification required in future interviews. However, one thing must be said in favour of the interviewer. He is a genial person of humble bearings, a trait that needs must be in an interviewer.

Sugata Bose @YouTube [News18Bangla---Anirban Ganguly] : Kindly do not use such words as 'bhoybhita' in Bengali, following its like usage 'bhaybheet' in Hindi. Bengali is a rich enough language to merit a better treatment at the hands of erudite Bengalis like you. This Hindi heartland linguistic culture is not warranted in a language that has won the only Nobel Prize in Literature for India. Such induction is the result of poor command over the Bengali language which necessitates the introduction of such Hindi words and phrases that are in common currency among the national leadership of the BJP in New Delhi. This is simply distasteful and utterly indicative of the degeneracy of Bengali culture, especially among the BJP workers of West Bengal who pride themselves in sycophancy of their national leaders. That the interviewer, who holds a PhD, hails from Birbhum, stands as Parliamentary candidte from Shantiniketan and is a member of the RSS whose image needs brightening in Bengal, should fail to be fluent in chaste Bengali is the sure sign of national cultural decay as needs must be in this age of dwindling refinement and progressive grossness in every sphere of natipnal life owing to demographic density shift in the populace. 🕉 Hindu!

Sugata Bose @Abir : What a game! Lifetime experience. Messi at his most desperate brilliance clinching a seemingly impossible win. And then the throw up in the air of the maestro by his mates! Genius lives on to see perhaps a yet brighter day. [Prequarter final match between Argentina and Egypt on 7 July, 2026 at Atlanta, USA, which Abir watched from the stadium gallery. Final score: Argentina 3 Egypt 2. Messi missed a penalty shot at the very beginning of the match but equalised the 1-2 score for Argentina in the dying minutes before a compatriot of his scored the final goal to clinch a place for Argentina in the quarter finals.]

Sugata Bose @YouTube [IAS Debashish Sen---Rhitobrata] : Rhitobrata ought to show off his own knowledge less and allow the interviewee to exhibit his more.

The interviewer must understand that he is not the interviewee.

Can you not speak directly in simple terms without undue ornamentation, Mr. Interviewer?

Sugata Bose @Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar : Whose Gurudev? Why does he speak of worldly things if at all he is Gurudev? Who does he identify the individual with? The body? The mind? Material Guru? Not even that.

Sugata Bose @Dr. Anirban Ganguly : Ask Narendra Modi to publish the letters and speeches of Syamaprasad Mookerjee and acknowledge publicly Sitaram Goel and Ram Swarup's contributions to the Hindutva Movement. Ask him to support 'Voice of India' Publications.

Sugata Bose @Vedanta Centre Brisbane@ : All religions are not true. There are religions which are patently antihuman, demonic. Two such have plagued the entire world for long, no less our motherland. Such religions are best rejected. Hence, it is puerile to take this statement of Swamiji at face value. Preaching these half-truths anymore will confound the already much-confounded world more and help proliferate these demonic thought systems with their inhuman active agenda.

Sugata Bose @24 পরগনা নিউজ : Kanalilal Datta and Satyen Bose died to give life to Aurobindo Ghosh. Ghosh thereafter slipped away to Pondicherry after acquittal in the Alipore Bomb Case in which his Cambridge colleague, Beachcroft, was the judge. Ghosh's brother, Barin, along with several others was sentenced to rigorous imprisonment in the Cellular Jail, Andaman.

Sugata Bose @Taraknath Bhattacharya : তুমি ভাই স্বামীজীর বাণী ও ভাবপ্রচারে চমৎকার কাজ করছ | আমরা এখন জীবনের সায়াহ্নে | তোমরা এই গুরুদায়িত্ব বহন করবে, এটাই কাম্য | তুমি তা করছ | তুমি ধন্য | দেশের মধ্যে পৌরুষ জাগ্রত কর' | স্বামীজীর এই ছিল অভিপ্রায় |

Sugata Bose @YouTube [CBNnewsonline] : There is nothing called radical Islam. Islam in its very essence is radical.

Sugata Bose @Debaprasad Bhattacharya : Gandhi was a mediocre man endowed with coarse, crafty intelligence who often exhibited a deliberate streak of moral confoundment coupled with irrational empathy for the enemies of humanity in his bid to pose as the saviour of humankind from the abyss it had sunk into. He was no saint as his exasperating experiments in continence (brahmacharya) with women bore testimony to. Such moral perversion in the name of spirituality surely does not entitle him to such grand epithets as 'Mahatma' and 'Father of the Nation' which our seminal giants of the day lavished on him. Ambedkar was the only one who unabashedly dared this man and cut him down to his true size but the rest of the hypocritical party then and now have borne him and continue to bear him a level of reverence which he in truth does not deserve.

Sugata Bose @Tanmaya Pathak Thank you for pointing out the error. I have already corrected it, having been prompted by an old friend of mine earlier. Nonetheless, thank you for your labour of love by way of pursuit of perfection. However, I do not think it is quite civil to take every opportunity to pounce upon a fellow being thus by way of making a caustic comment under the pretext of correcting an error and in so doing exhibiting one's vanity needlessly. That is not warranted. A slip may inadvertently or by way of typographical error take place which may be pointed out in a manner as becomes a gentleman. That surely does not merit such a corrosive comment. If feeling for one's fellow being be lost, what remains of national solidarity? Your comment also has a couple of punctuation errors which nearly most people make. But, so what? Must I point them out in such a rude manner as will degrade my gentlemanly sensibilities? No, I must not. However, now that I have brought up the issue, I need to validate my observation.

(জদু নয় যদুনাথ! আগে ঐতিহাসিকের নামের বানান জানুন। তারপরে ইতিহাস চর্চা করবেন।)

The words within parenthesis are yours. They ought to have been in all fairness in  regard to punctuation and grammar as follows:

জদু নয়, যদুনাথ | আগে ঐতিহাসিকের নামের বানান জানুন, তারপর ইতিহাস চর্চা করবেন |

Sugata Bose @Aroup Chatterjee : What are you saying? Am I like that, one who has been an ardent admirer of such a seminal genius as he, one whose equal in epic poetic excellence was difficult to find even among the best of his European contemporaries, said Swami Vivekananda?

Sugata Bose @Kishaloy Goswami : সে ত' 'ভোরে', 'গেলো', এই সব বানান দেখেই বুঝতে পারছি | যাঁরা মূর্খ নন, তাঁরা লেখেন 'ভরে', 'গেল', এই আর কি | Marxist historiography জানা আছে ?

Sugata Bose @Echoes of Swami Vivekananda : Pointless meditating unless one practises absolute brahmacharya (continence). In the absence of perfect chastity in thought, word and deed as enjoined by the Sanātan scriptures, concentration of the forces of the mind is impossible, that is, meditation in essence is impossible. Mere relaxation of the mind by sitting quiet in meditative posture as most people are prone to practising and which physicians also sometimes prescribe to control hypertension etc. is not meditation. Meditation is the science and the art of gathering the scattered mental forces which is attainable only through observance of perfect purity as foundational basis, as the sine qua non of this noble endeavour.

Sugata Bose @Debaprasad Bhattacharya : জন্মদিনের প্রণাম গ্রহণ করবেন | সুস্থ থাকুন, আনন্দে থাকুন আর আমাদের জ্ঞানের আলোকে, প্রেমের আলোকে পথ দেখান | প্রণাম |

Sugata Bose @Paritosh Das : Muslim invasion obliterated Buddhism primarily. Nalanda, Vikramashila and other prominent Buddhist universities were burnt down and thousands of scholar monks killed. Thousands of years of history, literature, culture erased from human memory by barbaric acts of jihadi violence. Buddhism had already reached its spiritual nadir by then in its third phase of life spanning 500 years and could not survive this inhuman Islamic violence deriving inspiration from its scriptures. Buddhism's own spiritual degeneration coupled with Islamic unbridled aggression extinguished its life here. Hinduism absorbed the best elements of Buddhism along with its popular forms of idol worship to continue the reign of Buddhism in its land of origin and it is being sustained thus to this day. Popular Hinduism today is Buddhism in an altered garb with obvious necessary amendments and evolutionary adjustments made. Vaishnavism is Buddhism in disguise. Its emphasis on non-violence and vegetarianism is a direct influence of Buddhism. Thus has Buddhism survived in India in the form of popular practised Hinduism. 🕉
