Vivekananda is overrated

 Collated by Tusar Nath Mohapatra

Vivekananda: The most overrated religious figure?

> Indians suffer from inferiority complex and because Vvk went to USA he became celebrity here, while he himself was not a realized yogi.

>RKM tried to mix Hinduism,  Xtianity to create a modern neo religion.

> He was just a link in the never ending Hindu reformist chain.

> While BJP/RSS criticizes Gandhi and his change in Hinduism, they have heavily promoted Vcvkism

>Vvkism believes in Varna Sankar society.

> Varna Sankarnta is root of all degeneracy.

> He was proped by Massons

>RKM worships Mother Mary, Jesus etc. While I am ok with respecting religious heads, to inculcate them in worship etc will lead to degeneracy in our religion.

>RKM has been overtly nationalistic without understanding the deeper crux of Hindu society.

>Vivekananda and his later followers have preached a flawed Vedanta which is uniformist and radical. 

> The over exposure of Vedic dictums to people without appropriate Sadhana will lead to mental chaos and turbulations.

> Neovedanta was proped by outsiders to replace Hinduism.

Lol literature is being done quite nicely by Chaukhambha, Gita Press and many similar societies.

100s of Yogis and saints manifested in those times but Vivekananda got picked up and was fed to masses so much for political and globalist reasons.

More like Free Masson ka hath to aapke sar par taaj

If you see the initial statement of the thread I called him overrated i didn't say he had no guts. He was marketed by certain people who had certain purposes of him. Also his brand of Hinduism or what his later followers or politics created is based on Varna Sankarta/Degeneracy.

Physical culture? Indians had great physical culture, Martial Arts Pehlalwani in Pune, Karnataka, Kerela, Haryana, Mathura -UP etc. Maybe Bengalis were weaker people.

My ancestors were 5'7 when we had little food to eat and Brits were 5'2 even afyer eating meat all day.

Saar Northern India and even south Indians have been practicing Indo Aryan Kushti, Pehalwani etc for a long time. Kerela had Kalaripayattu.

 All of India had physical culture even prior to British advent.

Freemason proped guy, other better alternatives exists for eg Ramana Maharshi, Sri Aurobindo and lots of Hindu press like Gita Press etc are doing great job.

I agree. Vivekananda became famous in India because he received a pat on the back from the west. Otherwise he has no original contribution to Indian spiritual thought. Even his books and writings are very mediocre compared to say Aurobindo or even for that matter Osho

Both vivekanand and iskon were Freemasons. I don't support the insult on bengalis, but don't glorify the people who haven't done anything for hindus in bengal. Do you even know how to read ? Where did i said bengalis didn't contributed anything ? i admire aurobindo, but i don't admire people like vivekanand or iskon who has weaken hindi society from within.  Tell me which sampradaay vivekanand belong to ? Which kuldev he worship?

Actually you're right here @BrahminReich
Even Nigrahacharya ji also spoke about it but like Gandhi, people also became a andha-supporter of Vivekananda and started considering him saviour of dharma who actually has no contribution towards dharma

Aurobindo’s understanding of the organic and fluid nature of Hindu civilisation is also quite interesting…… very insightful at multiple levels

Vivekanand was indeed an idiot who wrote nonsense. Aurobindo is much better than Vivekanand. You're just paranoid about power hungry Brahmins or whatever

Today I will share a #quote  of jiddu Krishnamurti ; earlier in my life when I haven't heard encountered with Sri Aurobindo ; I was impressed with Krishnamurti s life.. so today share two posts...

Truly beyond words. Infact Jiddu K was made puppet of NEW world order by Christian world, but he denounced that on the day of his anointment to west’s surprise. 

It is possible only if that conviction and clarity is there of how a human mind can become its own enemy.

Today, we introduce, in our civilizational thread, the work of

* Sri Aurobindo, wiki.p2pfoundation.net/Sri_Aurobindo

In short, a Indian revolutionary for national independence, who studied western philosophy and evolutionary theory in the West, but then went back to his own yogic tradition to become a spiritual master with a theory of civilizational evolution.

Amongst his three key books were:

* The Human Cycle , wiki.p2pfoundation.net/Human_Cycle

* The Life Divine, wiki.p2pfoundation.net/Life_Divine

* The Ideal of Human Unity, wiki.p2pfoundation.net/Ideal_of_Human…

When people with a history of donation fraud, gang activities, GST, and tax violations are in the Working Groups how will @rajbhavan_tn instill faith in the public and residents in #Auroville? It seems to people like a transfer of power @PMOIndia @EduMinOfIndia @dpradhanbjp

Just as there are unsung heroes in the world, similarly Auroville Today is largely taken-for-granted, under-appreciated, unsung magazine of Auroville. Thanks mainly  to two children of the Mother - Carel and Alan.

Auroville screening of 'Maa Ka Doodh'  sparks a compassionate shift in this father's perspective. Moved by the message, he's now determined to guide his daughter towards a vegan lifestyle, discovering a world of milk alternatives like soy and coconut milk along the way #auroville

Not only Pondicherry. Centre is being misused by the secretary of Auroville foundation Dr.Jayanthi Ravi. To the extent that the very foundation of Auroville has been thrown to the dustbin . This Gujarat cadre IAS officer is slowly bringing in the North Indian imprint on Auroville and is bent on granting to contracts to serve this purpose.  Aiadmk must voice this issue as well.

Undue enrichment, no law, no governance. This has been Auroville's reality so far.  This explains the economic nexus in Auroville, not adhering to what the Mother herself envisioned. #Auroville @PMOIndia @rashtrapatibhvn @rajbhavan_tn @avfoundation @EduMinOfIndia @ministryofhome1

@narendramodi @dpradhanbjp @BJP4India Regarding economic offenses of biblical proportions in #Auroville and people like Francois Gautier who lobby in your offices and make a media ruckus are the key players. @EduMinOfIndia @unesconewdelhi @avfoundation
