Chicago Vaktrita (Speech)

I read today the famous speech, Vivekanand delivered on the occasion of world parliament. He was not sent there by any organisation. Only few of the disciples came to know about the event and requested Swamiji to go there as a representative of Hindu religion. Swami ji also had no idea about any procedure but got ready to go there. When he reached there, he found all planning had already been done and there is no place for him. From there he reached Boston where he met Professor Rites of Harvard University. Professor got influenced and he arranged for Vivekanand to go to World religion parliament.
In Parliament his starting words, "Americans, My dear sisters and brothers", made the whole audience mesmerized. Probably because of his message of brotherhood for all present there.
He spoke about the beauty of Hindu religion, of which he was a representative. Then on different topics which is as follows:
Eternal power of Hindu religion.
Eternity of Vedas.
Rishi: He emphasized that there were also some women in Rishis.
Universe has neither beginning nor end.
Atman (Soul)
Janmantar-wad
Hereditary system and reincarnation
Why soul is with body
Karm-wad
Samadhi
Adwait: Endgoal of religion science
Idol worship
Generosity of Hindu religion
Hinduism with Buddhism and Jainism
Universal religion

What Christians can do for India: Instead of converting them, they can give bread to the poor people of India. Religion is already present there and is in abundance. When there was famine in India, Christians did nothing. It is insult to give preaching to a person who is hungry. He further said that he went there to ask for help, for poor and needy people of his country, only to realize how difficult it is to get any kind of help for idol worshipers in the country of Christians.

On last day he stressed about cooperation and coexistence of followers of different religions. Everyone should embrace the good teaching of different religions and should grow according to his or her own nature.

Freedom of Expression.

Recently Sakshi Maharaj made a comment on Media that "I think Godse too was patriot". This statement was something like all hell broke on BJP and Sakshi Maharaj. While reading  a newspaper today, I came across this view and that's why I'm writing on this topic.
          When a parallel theory is developed and Rama is projected as assassin. Ravana is claimed to be great warrior and leader of tribals. When Mahisasur jayanti is celebrated and everything existing as general belief is toppled down, then this is called freedom of expression. Society should be tolerant enough to listen other's views. There can be two sides of a story. Everything what is possible to validate the claim is said.
          That's is good and it should be done to protect the person. Only condition is that this all should not spread hatred among societies. 
           When a comment of this type was made, was it that much wrong which requires disruption of proceedings of parliament. Do everyone agrees with all the view of Gandhiji or as Venakiyaa Naydu said in parliament that everyday people strangulate the ideals of Gandhiji, are today making remarks. 
        Today I read complete speech of Godse which he delivered before the punishment inside court. If I go by his views what he expressed in speech, it seems he loved his country very much.
           In a transition time when Jinnah was the only winner and everyone else was loser, feeling angry and making a person responsible for the act was what done by Godse. He made responsible gandhiji for all the suffering of Hindus and division of his motherland.

When someone showed solidarity towards  a person who is a killer in most of the public eyes. What is correct method to protest. To stall proceedings or to give different view which is against the said version. These politicians are doing the same, what Godse did. Instead of giving his own theory he tried to remove the theory which is not in line with his views.

Your Decisions.

We generally decide to go ahead with, what we feel is better for us. But in life some decisions should be taken with extreme care because they decide our future. A decision can make us feel sad for a very long time. We may overcome the situations but the losses made can't be recovered. In these if we lose money and if that is not very huge amount then it doesn't matter much. But loss of time is the biggest thing that affects us most. The time what we have lost can never come back. All our plans can remain at the same place. If at all plans move they will, but at very slow pace. And with this, there is very little chance that we will reach our destiny.
        We should all remember Vivekananda's words" Uttisthat Jagrat Prapya Warannibodhyat" ('Arise, Awake and stop not till the goal is reached.').

First day as a blogger...

Today is my first day as a blog writer. I want to unleash my creativity and want to improve it beacause unusage of any thing makes is rusted and finally of no use so I have to keep on sharping my edges to be active in writing and expressing my thoughts.
      My visitors should not get worried about what I'm writing or I don't write better at all. I'm here to express whatever comes in mind and in that way I'll give a little pain to my readers so please bear with me.
I need to say I won't be a writer on very interesting subjects. Sometimes I may use jargon but still this is a process of continuous learning and I will learn in this way.
     I hope that's it for this post.
