The article " The Relevance of Vivekananda's Economic Thought " focuses so much on the thing that does not exist! 2. Swami Vivekananda was never involved directly or indirectly in politics or Indian Freedom Movement. He had clearly said no to politics while laying foundation of Ramakrishna Order. It is later day scholars who try to find, invent, or imagine connection and role of Swamiji related with Indian politics, economy, British Rule, Sociology, etc. However, the only mission of Swami Vivekananda was to broadcast the message of his Master, Sri Ramakrishna, all over the globe. The message was short and clear: The aim of human birth is to realize God. 3. Such articles have no value, for they are misdirected and do not conform to the facts; and are therefore irrelevant. 4. It is not necessary to comment on these articles; for, a sadhaka can never win against the vast majority of educated pundits for whom Spirituality, Vedanta, God Realization are mere words. 5. One should never be surprised by anything; many more comments shall be made on the life, teachings, and sayings of the Holy Trio; both in praise and in criticism. -- c s shah http://www.geocities.com/neovedanta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
