All Members,
         Respected family members of this great holy Nation.


VERY IMPORTANT FOR THE PRESENT DAY WORLD, PARENTS, TEACHERS, CHILDREN, YOUTH AND GOVERNMENTS  :

1. MANUSHYA JANMAM ( TAKING BIRTH  AS HUMAN BEING ) IS SACRED, BECAUSE OF GOOD KARMA DONE PREVIOUS BIRTH;

2. SO IT IS THE DUTY OF ALL HUMAN BEINGS TO FOLLOW RIGHTEOUS LIFE, AND PRACTICE TRUTH ..

*Islam is becoming more and more violent, cheating the vulnerable citizens in the societies / world communities,  and forcible conversions by trapping men and women in particular by way of love jihads, terror groups make islam a tool to act at will of their choice, in as many countries, the major so called super powers, with veto the horrible tool to disrupt the UNITED NATIONS DECISIONS, by taking sides of good terror; others helpless,  are silent spectators, leading the world into catastrophe ...

*Christianity is totally decaying, as  FALSE PROPAGANDA, could not achieve any results now as before; no one respects the priest class because of their royal life and their worst low moral standards plus corruptions, sexual rackets with nuns and weaker sections of societies;  followed by cheating and conversions by false promises; amassing wealth by corruption; fraud land dealings, etc; -- ( on in the poor / developing countries ...)

"Everyone's idea of practical religion is according to his theory of practicality and the standpoint he starts from. There is work. There is the system of worship. There is knowledge."


Listen to Swamiji :

IS VEDANTA THE FUTURE RELIGION? : 1. SWAMI VIVEKANANDA

(Delivered in San Francisco on April 8, 1900)


Those of you who have been attending my lectures for the last month or so must, by this time, be familiar with the ideas contained in the Vedanta philosophy. Vedanta is the most ancient religion of the world; but it can never be said to have become popular. Therefore the question "Is it going to be the religion of the future?" is very difficult to answer.

At the start, I may tell you that I do not know whether it will ever be the religion of the vast majority of men. Will it ever be able to take hold of one whole nation such as the United States of America? Possibly it may. However, that is the question we want to discuss this afternoon.

I shall begin by telling you what Vedanta is not, and then I shall tell you what it is. But you must remember that, with all its emphasis on impersonal principles, Vedanta is not antagonistic to anything, though it does not compromise or give up the truths which it considers fundamental.

You all know that certain things are necessary to make a religion. First of all, there is the book. The power of the book is simply marvellous! Whatever it be, the book is the centre round which human allegiance gathers. Not one religion is living today but has a book. With all its rationalism and tall talk, humanity still clings to the books. In your country every attempt to start a religion without a book has failed. In India sects rise with great success, but within a few years they die down, because there is no book behind them. So in every other country.

Study the rise and fall of the Unitarian movement. It represents the best thought of your nation. Why should it not have spread like the Methodist, Baptist, and other Christian denominations? Because there was no book. On the other hand, think of the Jews. A handful of men, driven from one country to another, still hold together, because they have a book. Think of the Parsees — only a hundred thousand in the world. About a million are all that remain of the Jains in India. And do you know that these handfuls of Parsees and Jains still keep on just because of their books? The religions that are living at the present day — every one of them has a book.

The second requisite, to make a religion, is veneration for some person. He is worshipped either as the Lord of the world or as the great Teacher. Men must worship some embodied man! They must have the Incarnation or the prophet or the great leader. You find it in every religion today. Hindus and Christians — they have Incarnations: Buddhists, Mohammedans, and Jews have prophets. But it is all about the same — all their veneration twines round some person or persons.

The third requisite seems to be that a religion, to be strong and sure of itself, must believe that it alone is the truth; otherwise it cannot influence people.

To be continued ...


NOTE :

1. Materialistic civilisation has made man insincere and untruthful. Ruthless, the ship of human is heading fast towards the rock of self-aggrandisement, hatred, aimless living, and eventually self-destruction. The present day world is full of fear, suspicion, crimes, and conflicts, quarrels and struggles. The real ideal religion is forgotten, the spirit of religion is lost, and only a poor external structure remains. Evolve a deeper insight and express it in life.

2. THE FOOLISH MUSLIMS AND CHRISTIANS MUST KEEP IN MIND AND AGREE THIS ETERNAL TRUTH ( SANATANA DHARMAM OF BHARATHAM ) AND REFORM THEMSELVES ……….

3. “He who says he is different from others, even by a hair's breadth, immediately becomes miserable. Happiness belongs to him who knows this oneness, who knows he is one with this universe.”

4. KASHMIR PEOPLE IN 2019 LOK SABHA POLLS, REJECTED ALL SEPARATISTS SUCH AS ABDULLAH, MUFTI, HURRIYAT, AND TERRORIST CALLS TO BOYCOTT ELECTIONS; BRILLIANT CHANGE IN THE SOCIETY AND FEELING OF PART OF BHARATHAM, WONDERFUL LOVING PEOPLE;

5. WHEREAS PEOPLE OF ANDHRA,TAMIL NADU, KERALA, STILL HOLD FIRM THE DEMONS OF DEMOCRACY, AND REJECTED BJP, SOON THEY WILL REALISE IF THEY HAVE A FEW DROPS OF INTELLECT TO DISCRIMINATE DIVINE BJP FROM THE ASURIC ELEMENTS, SUCH AS NAIDU, YSR, DRAVIDIAN SEPARATISTS, CINEMA RASCALS, CONGRESS COMMUNISTS MUSLIM LEAGUE, KERALA CONGRESS LIKE SEPARATIST GROUPS OF KERALA;

6. I WAS VERY SAD WHEN DARBAR HALL IS FILLED WITH ELECTED BJP MEMBERS, ALL CMS OF STATES, AND OTHER DIGNITARIES, COULD NOT SEE A SINGLE BJP MEMBER FROM ANDHRA, TAMIL NADU AND KERALA.

7. NOBODY CAN STRAIGHT THE THE DOGS TAIL BY PUTTING IN A PVC PIPE FOR A CENTURY. THIS IS THE LESSON TO THE PEOPLE TURN AWAY FROM THE DIVINITY AND ASSOCIATE WITH THIEVES, DECAOITS, COMMUNAL BREAKING INDIA FORCES AND MANY MORE EVILS.

Chapter 3: The Need for Integral Knowledge -5 5. THE REALISATION OF ONENESS IN THE SPIRIT -1 One must go beyond all that causes duality, even the intellect, and take resort in the transcendent silence. "One should not play too much upon words, for it is mere weariness of speech." "The Brahmana should, knowing Him, renounce learning, and stand childlike and The intellect is the seat of egoism, and the highest learning is only apara vidya, not above the phenomena of nature. The intellect has no light of its own, independent of the Self, any more than the moon has any light other than that of the sun. Consciousness gets diffused through the distractive intellect and creates the perception of multiplicity. "Dismissing all other words, He alone is to be meditated upon and known, the bridge to Immortality." Further, it is erroneous on the part of an individual to take seriously the many forms of perception. These forms float in Truth even a
