Guest guest Posted August 28, 1999 Report Share Posted August 28, 1999 Further to the article mentioned by Naganna naganna12 I had a look at that article. My comments:- There are those who see the life and teachings of Swami Vivekananda - feel inspired and attempt to rise to his level. But then there are always those who will try and drag down the life and teachings of a great world teacher to their own demeaning level. Sri Ramakrishna once remarked on such scholars with a sharp remark. " These scholars think 'How clever we are? - The crow too thinks he is a clever bird; but the first thing he does when he wakes up in the early morning is to fill his stomach with nothing but filth. Haven't you noticed how he struts about? Very clever indeed! " I have sent appropriate remarks about this article to the site so that they can take note. jay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 28, 1999 Report Share Posted August 28, 1999 I replied with following words to the author. Dear Sir/Madam, It seems u don't practice spirituality. The article written by u tells more abt ur mind then abt whom the article is written. It's very easy to quote the statements out of context and demean them. Can the shadow of a straight rod appear straight on curved background. with regards and love, Anurag On Sat, 28 Aug 1999, Vivekananda Centre wrote: > " Vivekananda Centre " <vivekananda > > Further to the article mentioned by Naganna naganna12 > > I had a look at that article.
