Amiya P. Sen - 2008 - No preview
This book is a short, critical biography of Bankim Chandra Chattopadhyay (1838-94), a major Bengali novelist and thinker, who, in many ways, determined the intellectual and cultural content of modern Indian nationalism, and modern Hinduism.
Assorted tweets for general information:
Unlike #ideaOfIndia jurists and delhi thinktanks : I write in simple language that anyone can understand and always looking to make it even simpler while keeping the message
As I tweeted that day, Pranab Mukherjee read out Nehru's Discovery of India at RSS function. Nehru expounded a perverted definition of composite culture which actually celebrated enslavement of Hindu women by Islamic invaders. This meticulous letter to editor explains everything. https://t.co/8sNW9XkaD0
The continuing craving of approval and legitimacy from ideological enemies, and all and sundry, continues in certain quarters.
Journalists do NOT represent the nation or society. They represent their employers, paymasters or puppet-masters. Let us get that right, and straight.
पत्रकार राष्ट्र और समाज का प्रतिनिधित्व नहीं करते। वे अपने नियोक्ताओं, थैलीशाहों अथवा कठपुतली-नियन्त्रकों के दास से अधिक कुछ नहीं हैं। इसे हम जितना शीघ्र और भली भांति समझ लें, उतना हमारे लिए अच्छा।
"The killing of a journalist is tantamount to leaving a society voiceless." Valley newspapers remember #ShujaatBhukari.
I have my differences w/ @ARanganathan72, but it’s unfair to imply that he had anything to do w/ Shujaat Bukhari’s death just because he criticized Bukhari when he was alive. We’re responsible for our words, not for unconnected tragedies that may befall those w/ whom we disagree.
We are hard wired for cognitive closure. It takes a great deal effort to first realize that you may not know what you think you know & then to make yourself learn something new. https://t.co/gQqjpbPmJu
What is happening with the svarAjya magazine wrt to AIT may be compared to their previous hiring of that karNATI economist. 1. It shows that H can be easily fooled by ideological convictions to ignore the truth. 2. They can be easily way-laid by the urge to look good in others
Sadly they are almost behaving like the Marxian riff-raff protesting about patriarchy, toxic masculinity, brahmin males etc...
Very surprised that some many otherwise intelligent people are sharing that article as proof of OIT. Seems like most have no idea what they are protesting rather like the some left wing students with v1 surnames asking aryans to go back
I know enough to say what I am saying. Majority of Humanity Degree faculty are #UrbanNaxals. They corrupt the techies who're progressive but cultured. Wait and watch as more Murthy type libtard technocrats are pumped out of IITs. Insidious
We do hv decent humanities scholars.JNU VC Makarand Parajape is an example.We hv forgotten likes of Sri Aurobindo totally. Francois Gautier had said tht if SA had been French,we would hv taught his poetry in schools, philosphy in colleges. No Westerm intellectual challenges him
Notwithstanding the neo-liberal distortions, the purpose of education is to create good citizens and leaders who are prepared to fulfil their civic and cultural responsibilities. https://t.co/YkDhBUhqNU

Manual scavenging has remained a hereditary, descent-based, or caste-based job, exclusively carried out by Dalits. Interestingly, those who are generally opposed to reservation never protest 100% reservation for Dalits in this occupation. https://t.co/1eBExlSeQi
53,000 manual scavengers in 12 states, four-fold rise from last official count in 2017. This is the data from barely 100 odd districts only out of 600+ in India. @ShaliniNair13 reports https://t.co/wHZXXs7i4b

Political parties remember ‘journalist of impeccable integrity’ Shujaat Bukhari
I regret reading this side of you buddy. Indology & your were two of my favourites here. Condemning someone for their views on pre-marital sex is hopefully not a newly found habit. Woof woof
Yes I will be honest here. From Vedic times girls have always been required to be virgins till marriage. That has been our cherished tradition and even if people hate me I can not betray this tradition so if someone is going against it he or she is my enemy. Simple. https://t.co/GZbGz8ySax
Whole thread. See how a Trojan horse breaking India gang is busy duping people on SM when in reality the postergirl of this gang does not know Swat is in Pakistan,finds Kalhana of 1100s writing about Zorawar of 1800s and blind racial hatred. https://t.co/IL5Vz755jJ
This Saswati is an American Trojan Horse working for breaking India gang by constantly insulting Hindi and North Indians. However, they are history-illiterates and cant even get their basics right. Ji is NOT from persian but from Sanskrit "Arya" Next tweet for true origin. (22) https://t.co/cQUG91D2aF
Saswati accuses every caste,ethnicity of collaboration with Invaders, praises her own Bankim fraudulently whitewash his pro brit stance (14) https://t.co/LWAUSRSOyj
Her bigotry doesnt allow her to see that picture worse in her native land where mere look at names bring skeletons out of cupboard.(13) https://t.co/aRR5YKvNgx
You abuse a great historian as dishonest or Incompetent.But to save your face,you quote him.Is it not your dishonesty and incompetence? (9) https://t.co/ITLBaisIwb
This person sanmukh is clearly lying. Nowhere does Khusro use 'ji' in any of his Persian poems and texts. When this breaking India gang has no facts, they invent things out of thin air.(24) https://t.co/djEAHpZjDD
Recognising that scholarship is a difficult enterprise is important and retaining respect for writers crucial. Errors need to be rectified but attributing motives erects needless prejudices. Let each reader decide should be the dictum. @maidros78 & @sarkar_swati insist precision.
Have been saying this for a long time, the newsminute is more dangerous than the likes of wire. Because anybody can do a hit job, it requires great skill to plan an escape, which the newsminute specialises in.
To all those saying that my tweet trivialises mental health issues: I am NOT trying to be funny or sassy. I really think therapy might help. Something compels her to say such things right. There is a deeper issue here. Even if it is ‘twitter fame’ or an attempt to remain relevant
These are welcoming steps by temple across India, if the two community steps in closer then Politicians can not use this divide to explore their chances, rather to force focus their attention on rational issues https://t.co/4P8I1B8aMN

It's profitable to consult #SriAurobindo in these matters and examine his #ThirdDream. He is emphatic about the inevitability of Evolutionary trajectory culminating in a Vedic milieu. In the absence of any coherent theories either from Science or Philosophy he should make sense.
Experts are referred to when dealing with technical subjects. Qualified persons are respected for their specialisation. #SriAurobindo is an undisputed authority on the philosophy of Yoga who holds distinct opinion than modern psychology. Yet, he is ignored when Yoga is discussed.

This mire must harbour the orchid and the rose,
From her blind unwilling substance must emerge
A beauty that belongs to happier spheres.
- Sri Aurobindo ("SAVITRI")
