Yuva Bharati - August 2007 - Vivekananda Kendra Prakashan

Hinduism means ill-treatment to women,Hinduism means weapon wieldingterrorizing Gods and Goddesses, Hindus’scriptures are antipoor and creators ofpoverty and caste conflicts. Many corruptedintelligentias are either following it orconfirming it or supporting it by notobjecting to these equations.”Shiva Swarupananda said “SwamiVivekananda therefore insisted thatHinduism, as clearly reasoned out throughVedanta and Upanishads should be broughtout from the monasteries and forests andcaves, to the common man’s reach. Leadersin the society the Jyesthha and Sresthhashould practice and speak about it. Theyshould be torchbearers of it. If these leadersthemselves are mystic-mongers,obscurantists, ritual ridden, thinking ofNamby Pamby ideas, through them thesociety will go to the dogs. Suchpersonalities, however popular they beshould not be our Nation’s Skandha - rolemodels.”A senior student came forward and saidboldly, “One need not be necessarily anoccupant of this Rashtrapati Bhavan to bethe Senaani Skandha”. He continued “we allshould imbibe and assimilate the corecompetenceof the Bharat and carry itforward. The battles against our culture areneeded to be fought everywhere, every timeand the attackers are disguised in differentfatigues. Each one of us have to becomepart of the brigade. Then, one day, theSenaani will emerge from among us”.All of us rejoiced this confident responseand we dispersed on the positive note.
