Respected family members of this great holy Nation.


Sub : DISCIPLESHIP : - 15.
(Delivered in San Francisco, on March 29, 1900)
By Swami Vivekananda.

 (Very Important Readers must realise  : - "A BOLD TALK, QUESTION BEFORE CHRISTIANS : -)

( OUR CHRISTIAN BROTHERS AND SISTERS SHOULD ANSWER THE SWAMIJI'S QUESTIONS, PROBABLY THE CHRISTIANS HERE ESPECIALLY IN KERALA  MAY  NOT- BECAUSE THE BAPTISM IS ITSELF A WRONG FOOLISH IDEA !" )

15.

The Guru must teach me and lead me into light, make me a link in that chain of which he himself is a link.

The man in the street cannot claim to be a Guru.

The Guru must be a man who has known, has actually realised the Divine truth, has perceived himself as the spirit.

A mere talker cannot be the Guru.

A talkative fool like me can talk much, but cannot be the Guru.

A true Guru will tell the disciple, "Go and sin no more"; and no more can he sin, no more has the person the power to sin.


I have seen such men in this life.

I have read the Bible and all such books; they are wonderful.

But the living power you cannot find in the books.

The power that can transform life in a moment can be found only in the living illumined souls, those shining lights who appear among us from time to time.

They alone are fit to be Gurus.

You and I are only hollow talk-talk, not teachers.

We are disturbing the world more by talking, making bad vibrations.

We hope and pray and struggle on, and the day will come when we shall arrive at the truth, and we shall not have to speak.

NOTE :- Here, Swamiji indicates it is difficult to be a Guru, today, very difficult to find a True Guru, until a True disciple finds one if he is sincere!

All  cardinals  or bishops are not be Guru-s in true sense!!

Thank you for reading

 JAIHIND.

To be continued  ...

The Essence of Dharma-23.

23/02/2018 Spoken on February 11th, 1973) This is the concept of dharma, of the duty of man in the universe, the nature of which is thus explained. Dharma has sometimes been regarded as one of the four purusharthas: dharma, artha, kama, moksha. This is the sum and substance of Hinduism. The essence of the religion of India is summed up in a phrase: dharma, artha, kama, moksha. If you are asked by anyone what is Hinduism, simply say, “Dharma, artha, kama, moksha.” This is Hinduism: a blend of these four concepts of duty. Hinduism is always a blend. It is never a one-sided affair. It has no name. ‘Hinduism’ is not the name of this religion. It is the name that is foisted upon it by Westerners, not knowing what it is. We have no name for our religion. It is not founded by any person. It is universal, capable of absorbing everything into itself like a menstruum. It is sanatana dharma, eternal dharma. It is eternal religion forever applicable to all persons of all creeds and sexes.
