Opinion      31/05/2018                     1256  Sub :- WHY BHARATHAM NEEDS PM Narendra Damodardas Modi?   BECAUSE AT PRESENT THERE IS NONE MORE ELIGIBLE AND CAPABLE PERSON IN OUR POLITICS, THIS IS THE TRUTH; LET US REFRESH OUR MEMORY, WE GET THE ANSWER : -  Gandhiji chose Nehru over Patel because of THREE main reasons: 1. Gandhi believed a foreign educated Nehru with modern thoughts had an edge over Patel who, according to him, was orthodox in his thoughts.  2. Gandhiji feared Nehru would revolt in case he was denied PM’s post and that would give the British an excuse to delay transfer of power.  3. On the other hand, he was fully convinced of Sardar Patel’s loyalty. He knew Sardar Patel was a true patriot and would never play a spoilsport.  THE LESSON : 1. History has proved it beyond doubt that had Patel been the PM in place of Ne...

Opinion,     29/05/2018,                 1254. Sub :- A PERSON in the twilight of wakefulness needs but a slight nudge to come fully awake. A person asleep, needs a sharp knock, a shock. In the 1950's, India was a country asleep to its own potentialities, a country demoralized by foreign occupation and intimidated by years of Brahmin monopoly of the Upanishadic heritage. The guardians of the richest spiritual inheritance on earth, the Hindus, had become strangers to thc source of their own tradition-Vedanta. Veda Vyasa's and Sankara's legacy lay dusted over with fears and prejudices. Even the priest class. understood little of the knowledge hidden in the Upanishads. A culture thus slumbering needs a strong knock to come' awake. That knock came from Swami (Chinmayananda, who, along with the Rishi of the Kathopanishad, shouted to all who would listen: "Awake! Awake to your own destiny." Swami Chinmayananda: - ...

Opinion      23/05/2018              1244 SUB :- “The love of Radha and Krishna is symbolic of the eternal love affair between the devoted mortal and the Divine Radha’s yearning for union with her beloved Krishna is the soul’s longing for spiritual awakening.” -- Every aspect of Krishna and His deeds is pregnant with deep mystical symbolism indicating the highest Truth. One must have the subtle-sensitivity of a poet, the ruthless intellect of a scientist, and the soft heart of the beloved in order to enter into the enchanted realm of mysticism. Art can be fully appreciated only by hearts that have art in them. -- In Sanskrit, the word Krishna means “dark”, indicating the Supreme Consciousness. Pure Consciousness is said to be “dark”, not as opposed to “light,” but in the sense that it is unseen by or unknown to one as long as one remains footed in earthly experiences, ex¬periences limited to the realms of perceptions, em...

Opinion      21/05/2018                 1241 Sub :The Heritage of Indian Culture ( The Paitrukam of Bhaarateeya Samskaram ) : 1.5          by Swami Krishnananda Ref : High Voltage Dynasty politics and Criminal politicians through out the Nation, destroying our Heritage ( Paitrukam ) of Culture ( Samskaram-s )!? All great men have gone, and no one can remain. No one can remain because all these 'someones' or 'anyones' are forms projected by the intentions of nature for the fulfilment of its own super-personal purpose. We are unable to understand this philosophy of nature. We think that nature's affection is for the body itself, and we think that life is nothing but the possession of buildings, lands, currencies, etc. But life is not the possession of buildings, lands, and currencies; these are, again, like motorcars. Our buildings, lands, and monies are vehicles which we are permitted to have,...
