Quote
“Tengo mi propia versión del optimismo. Si no puedo cruzar una puerta, cruzaré otra o haré otra puerta. Algo maravilloso vendrá, no importa lo oscuro que esté el presente”
Rabindranath Tagore
Tumblr media
Fue un poeta, dramaturgo, músico y filósofo del movimiento Brahmo Samaj, un movimiento social y religioso fundado en el siglo XIX y que significa literalmente, la sociedad de los devotos de Dios verdadero. Nació en Calcuta India, en mayo de 1816. Se le considera el más prestigioso escritor indio de comienzos del siglo XX.
Fue el menor de 14 hermanos, de niño vivió rodeado de una atmósfera de publicaciones de revistas literarias y de representaciones musicales y de teatro. Su hermano era un respetado poeta y filósofo y otro de ellos fue el primer miembro de una etnia india admitido en el servicio civil indio, que anteriormente estaba formado solo por blancos.
En 1878, Tagore viajó a Brighton Inglaterra, en donde estudió en un colegio privado, y posteriormente en el University College de Londres, misma que dejaría al cabo de un año.
A lo largo de su vida, Tagore mantuvo múltiples contactos con otros intelectuales de la época, en donde destacan, Albert Einstein, Robert Frost, Mahatma Gandhi, Bernard Shaw y H.G.Wells entre otros.
La poesía dominó la reputación literaria de Tagore, aunque también escribió novelas, ensayos e historias cortas, se suman casi un centenar de libros y compuso numerosas canciones. De la prosa de Tagore, sus obras de mas consideración son sus cuentos cortos, y se le atribuye la introducción de este género en la literatura bengalí,
A partir de 1912, recibió numerosas invitaciones para pronunciar conferencias en occidente y en 1913, obtuvo el premio Nobel de Literatura. Gracias a ello, ganó gran popularidad, convirtiéndose en una celebridad de Oriente de las que muy pocos conocían y escuchaban en Occidente. Dos años después de recibir el premio Nobel, el rey Jorge V lo nombró caballero, titulo al que renunció tras la matanza de Amritsar en 1919, cuando las tropas británicas mataron a 400 manifestantes indios.
Durante la primera guerra mundial, definió su postura política como pacifista exenta de nacionalismo. 
En sus últimos años, se dedicó casi por completo a la administración de su centro de estudios, y en Agosto de 1941, muere a la edad de 63 años en Shantiniketan, a unos 160 kilómetros de Calcuta. Esta escuela fundada por Tagore se convirtió más tarde en la Universidad Visva Bharati en 1951 por una ley del paramento.

Feminist movements have historically lacked inclusivity, often growing within a limited Western upper-class psyche, based on their own challenges and needs. The digital revolution has paved the way for a new iteration of feminism. The digital space can bolster feminist activist movements by encouraging inclusion and improving accessibility in organising collective action. It also helps weave local stories with global narratives to highlight common structural inequalities. At the same time, however, the digital space can also become a breeding ground for sexism and misogyny. This brief attempts to analyse how digitisation can affect women’s movements, especially in emerging economies like India. It does so by viewing contemporary cyberfeminism through postcolonial and postmodern feminist theories. The brief also highlights the strengths and deficits of digital activism.
Feminism consists of social, economic and political movements and theories that are concerned with gender inequalities and gaining equal rights for women. In the West, the evolution of the feminist struggle is often referred to as ‘waves’ of change, reflecting peaks and troughs of the movement. The first wave of feminism began in the late 19th and early 20th century in the West, with the primary goal of securing voting rights. The second wave emerged in the 1960s amid a rising self-consciousness for minority groups, and against the backdrop of civil rights and anti-war sentiments. The movement largely focused on empowering minority groups over issues like reproductive rights and sexuality.2 The third wave of feminism began in the early 1990s, surging from the new postcolonial and neoliberal world order. The third wave deconstructed the idea of “universal womanhood,” with the focus moving from communal objectives to individual rights.
This brief borrows the wave analogy to establish the chronology of Indian feminist politics. The foundation of Indian feminism—the first wave—was laid by the reform and anti-colonial movements of the 19th century.  The aims of the movement centred around including women in public life with better political rights, access to education and employment in the context of the colonial state. Various social reformers took up specific issues to improve the status of women. Reformers like Raja Ram Mohan Roy and Ishwar Chandra Vidyasagar, for instance, argued against the ideas of sati, polygamy, early marriage and permanent widowhood. Further, the Brahmo Samaj gave impetus to mass education of girls and women. The movement for education and social reform was largely led by upper-caste Bengali Women. The reformist movement, as a result, led to various social gains such as the legalisation of widow remarriage in 1856 and the abolition of sati. The later part of the struggle remained preoccupied with the issues on property and inheritance, limiting the composition of the movement to upper-caste and elite class women.
After independence, India began to look inward to resolve social issues and create a systematic development plan for women. This second wave of feminism became broader as the intersectionality of caste, class and culture were recognised by the state. The movement entered the private sphere to claim equal rights pertaining to marriage, divorce, succession, justice for dowry and sexual violence, and economic opportunities. An exemplification of this can be found with the passing of Hindu code bills in 1950s, which provided equal rights to women through laws on divorce, marriage, adoption and inheritance. With the improvement in literacy levels and free movement, Indian women were beginning to determine their place in society and develop identity-consciousness. The key difference between the first and second wave was that the former was espoused by men on behalf of women and did not seem to challenge the hegemony of the Indian patriarchal social structure, instead focusing on specific cultural issues that conflicted with the idea of Western liberalisation. The latter was largely led by women and women’s organisations. The lines between women’s social, economic and political rights became blurred in this period. The Chipko movement in 1973, for instance, saw women protest for their rights against environmental and economical calamities. This movement is key in Indian feminism because not only was it a demand for constitutional rights, it also stood against the patriarchal social structures at a grassroots level.
In 1980, the Five-Year Plan decided to focus on the health, employment and education of women, marking the beginning of the third wave of Indian feminism. Women-led non-government organisations proliferated in a bid to provide support to other women. The movement also took up the rights of Dalit and marginalised women. The developmental programmes and women’s groups largely directed their effort to raise the economic and social status of women. Principally, women’s groups sought the empowerment of women to integrate them into the mainstream.
With the effects of economic liberalisation and the advent of modern technology, by the 2000s, women in India witnessed a cultural shift that stressed on rights such as women’s freedom, choice and independence. Although the term ‘fourth-wave feminism’ originated in the West, it emerged in India almost synchronously due to the widespread use of social media.

Hindu Marriage Registration
Tumblr media
Matrimony holds a sacred place among the 16 samskars of Hindus, signifying a profound connection. The woman is revered as ardhangini, the better half who completes a man in every aspect. Strengthening this sacred union is the hindu marriage registration Act of 1955, an integral addition to the Sastrik laws governing Hindu marriages.
Hindu Marriage Act: Nurturing Sacred Bonds
The Hindu Marriage Act delineates the rights and responsibilities of spouses, presenting a remarkable embodiment of Sastrik laws governing Hindu unions. An amendment to these laws, the Act introduces the concepts of separation and divorce, providing a comprehensive legal framework for Hindu marriages.
Applicability Across a Diverse Nation
In a sovereign nation like India, where diverse religions coexist, the hindu marriage registration Act plays a pivotal role. Hinduism, being the predominant faith, encompasses a rich culture where marriage is regarded as the purest and strongest bond. Applicable to those of Hindu origin, including Lingayats, followers of Arya Samaj, Prarthna, or Brahmo, the Act also extends its reach to Jains, Buddhists, and Sikhs. Excluding Muslims, Christians, Persians, or Jews, the Act is applicable to any person belonging to the Hindu religion, domiciled in territories governed by Hindu law.
Nature of Hindu Marriage: A Sacred Blend
A Hindu marriage, rooted in tradition, is not merely a sacrament but also a contract, representing a unique blend of these two facets. Governed by specific conditions, a valid Hindu marriage necessitates adherence to these key aspects:
Single Marriage: Hindu law strictly prohibits more than one marriage, declaring it null and void with a punishment of seven years. The second marriage can be annulled upon the request of the spouse.
Mental Capacity: Parties entering into marriage must be of sound mind, free from mental disorders or insanity.
Age Requirement: The bride should be at least 18 years old, and the groom should be a minimum of 21 years old. Failure to meet this condition renders the marriage valid but punishable under section 18, with imprisonment, a fine, or both.
Prohibited Degrees: Marriages within prohibited degrees are void unless custom permits otherwise.

Swami Vivekananda was a Hindu monk and one of the most celebrated spiritual leaders of India. He was more than just a spiritual mind; he was a prolific thinker, great orator and passionate patriot. He carried on the free-thinking philosophy of his guru, Ramakrishna Paramhansa forward into a new paradigm. He worked tirelessly towards betterment of the society, in servitude of the poor and needy, dedicating his all for his country. He was responsible for the revival of Hindu spiritualism and established Hinduism as a revered religion on world stage. His message of universal brotherhood and self-awakening remains relevant especially in the current backdrop of widespread political turmoil around the world. The young monk and his teachings have been an inspiration to many, and his words have become goals of self-improvement especially for the youth of the country. For this very reason, his birthday, January 12, is celebrated as the National Youth Day in India.
Early Life and Education
Born Narendranath Dutta, into an affluent Bengali family in Calcutta, Vivekananda was one of the eight children of Vishwanath Dutta and Bhuvaneshwari Devi. He was born on January 12, 1863, on the occasion of Makar Sankranti. Father Vishwanath was a successful attorney with considerable influence in society. Narendranath’s mother Bhuvaneshwari was a woman endowed with a strong, God-fearing mind who had a great impact on her son.
As a young boy, Narendranath displayed sharp intellect. His mischievous nature belied his interest in music, both instrumental as well as vocal. He excelled in his studies as well, first at the Metropolitan institution, and later at the Presidency College in Calcutta. By the time he graduated from the college, he had acquired a vast knowledge of different subjects. He was active in sports, gymnastics, wrestling and body building. He was an avid reader and read up on almost everything under the sun. He perused the Hindu scriptures like the Bhagvad Gita and the Upanishads on one hand, while on the other hand he studied western philosophy, history and spirituality by David Hume, Johann Gottlieb Fichte and Herbert Spencer.
Spiritual Crisis and Relationship with Ramkrishna Paramhansa
Although Narendranath’s mother was a devout woman and he had grown up in a religious atmosphere at home, he underwent a deep spiritual crisis at the start of his youth. His well-studied knowledge led him to question the existence of God and for some time he believed in Agnosticism. Yet he could not completely ignore the existence of a Supreme Being. He became associated with Brahmo Movement led by Keshab Chandra Sen, for some time. The Bramho Samaj recognised one God unlike the idol-worshipping, superstition-ridden Hinduism. The host of philosophical questions regarding the existence of God roiling through his mind remained unanswered. During this spiritual crisis, Vivekananda first heard about Sri Ramakrishna from William Hastie, the Principal of the Scottish Church College.
Earlier, to satisfy his intellectual quest for God, Narendranath visited prominent spiritual leaders from all religions, asking them a single question, “Have you seen God?” Each time he came away without a satisfying answer. He put forward the same question to Sri Ramkrishna at his residence in Dakshinewar Kali Temple compounds. Without a moment's hesitation, Sri Ramakrishna replied: "Yes, I have. I see God as clearly as I see you, only in a much deeper sense." Vivekananda, initially unimpressed by the simplicity of Ramkrishna, was astonished with Ramakrishna's reply. Ramakrishna gradually won over this argumentative young man with his patience and love. The more Narendranath visited Dakshineshwar, the more his questions were answered.
Spiritual Awakening
In 1884, Naredranath underwent a considerable financial distress due to the death of his father as he had to support his mother and younger siblings. He asked Ramakrishna to pray to the Goddess for the financial welfare of his family. On Ramakrishna’s suggestion he himself went to the temple to pray. But once he faced the Goddess he could not ask for money and wealth, instead he asked for ‘Vivek’ (conscience) and ‘Bairagya’ (reclusion). That day marked the complete spiritual awakening of Narendranath and he found himself drawn to an ascetic way of life.
Life of a Monk
During the middle of 1885, Ramakrishna, who had been suffering from throat cancer, fell seriously ill. In September 1885, Sri Ramakrishna was moved to Shyampukur in Culcutta, and a few months later Narendranath took a rented villa at Cossipore. Here, he formed a group of young people who were ardent followers of Sri Ramakrishna and together they nursed their Guru with devoted care. On 16 August 1886, Sri Ramakrishna gave up his mortal body.
After the demise of Sri Ramakrishna, around fifteen of his disciples including Narendranath began to live together in a dilapidated building at Baranagar in North Calcutta, which was named Ramakrishna Math, the monastic order of Ramakrishna. Here, in 1887, they formally renounced all ties to the world and took vows of monkhood. The brotherhood rechristened themselves and Narendranath emerged as Vivekananda meaning "the bliss of discerning wisdom".
The brotherhood lived off on alms donated voluntarily by patrons during holy begging or ‘madhukari’, performed yoga and meditation. Vivekananda left the Math in 1886 and went on a tour of India on foot as a ‘Parivrajak’. He travelled the breadth of the country, absorbing much of the social, cultural and religious aspects of the people he came in contact with. He witnessed the adversities of life that the common people faced, their ailments, and vowed to dedicate his life to bring relief to these suffering.
Lecture at the World Parliament of Religions
During the course of his wanderings, he came to know about the World Parliament of Religions being held in Chicago, America in 1893. He was keen to attend the meeting, to represent India, Hinduism and his Guru Sri Ramakrishna’s philosophies. He found assertion of his wishes while he was meditating on the rocks of Kanyakumari, the southernmost tip of India. Money was raised by his disciples in Madras (now Chennai) and Ajit Singh, Raja of Khetri, and Vivekananda left for Chicago on May 31, 1893 from Bombay.
He faced insurmountable hardships on his way to Chicago, but his spirits remained as indomitable as ever. On 11 September 1893, when the time came, he took the stage and stunned everyone with his opening line “My brothers and sisters of America”. He received a standing ovation from the audience for the opening phrase. He went on to describe the principles of Vedanta and their spiritual significance, putting Hinduism on the map of World Religions.
He spent the next two and a half years in America and founded the Vedanta Society of New York in 1894. He also travelled to the United Kingdom to preach the tenets of the Vedanta and Hindu Spiritualism to the western world.
Teachings and Ramakrishna Mission
Vivekananda returned to India in 1897 amidst warm reception from the common and royal alike. He reached Calcutta after a series of lectures across the country and founded the Ramakrishna Mission on May 1, 1897 at Belur Math near Calcutta. The goals of the Ramakrishna Mission were based on the ideals of Karma Yoga and its primary objective was to serve the poor and distressed population of the country. The Ramakrishna Mission undertook various forms of social service like establishing and running school, collages and hospitals, propagation of practical tenets of Vedanta through conference, seminars and workshops, initiating relief and rehabilitation work across the country.
His religious conscience was an amalgamation of Sri Ramakrishna’s spiritual teachings of Divine manifestation and his personal internalization of the Advaita Vedanta philosophy. He directed to achieve the divinity of the soul by undertaking selfless work, worship and mental discipline. According to Vivekananda, the ultimate goal is to achieve freedom of the soul and that encompasses the entirety of one’s religion.
Swami Vivekananda was a prominent nationalist, and had the overall welfare of his countrymen topmost in his mind. He urged his fellow countrymen to “Arise, awake and stop not till the goal is reached”.
Death
Swami Vivekananda had predicted that he will not live till the age of forty. On July 4, 1902, he went about his days’ work at the Belur Math, teaching Sanskrit grammar to the pupils. He retired to his room in the evening and died during meditation at around 9. He is said to have attained ‘Mahasamadhi’ and the great saint was cremated on the Banks of river Ganga.
Legacy
Swami Vivekananda revealed to the world the true foundations of India's unity as a nation. He taught how a nation with such a vast diversity can be bound together by a feeling of humanity and brother-hood. Vivekananda emphasized the points of drawbacks of western culture and the contribution of India to overcome those. Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose once said: "Swamiji harmonized the East and the West, religion and science, past and present. And that is why he is great. Our countrymen have gained unprecedented self-respect, self-reliance and self-assertion from his teachings." Vivekananda was successful in constructing a virtual bridge between the culture of East and the West. He interpreted the Hindu scriptures, philosophy and the way of life to the Western people. He made them realize that in spite of poverty and backwardness, India had a great contribution to make to world culture. He played a key role in ending India's cultural isolation from the rest of the world.

Watch "Osho view on ambedkar ji अंबेडकर जी पर ओशो के विचार #osho #ambedkar #buddha #india" on YouTube
youtube
Yes Mr Ambedkar was troubled by Hierarchical Hinduism,he knew very well the attitude which came forth due to pollution- purity concept so entrenched in Indian society when india got its independence.
Watch the movie Sahib Biwi or Gulam where even Brahmo Samaj followers were ostricised due to superstitious and insular thinking in mass of population in india.
Today Nehru is thrown into dustbin none other than by Congress,itself .Nehru built and laid the foundation of modern India which could have been path to spritual india.Nehru's was idealist and so was Ram ,Nehru soul reincarnated perhaps with Ambedkar and look at angry Ram portraial by Hindu wadi pundit led movement.
Ram is angry no matter how many temples or church or mosque you may make ,the real Dharma flows from the Top and unfortunately it does not flow well.
Pollution purity concept got mixed up with BRAHMANISATION AND SANSKRITISATION and the real concept of Dharma is missing at the Top,for them materialism is more important either by hook or crook Dharma is assumed to prosper by doing few minutes rituals and bribing the god by tons of money and gifts.
Pundit Nehru disliked the word Pundit and he was bound to dislike it and was only different from Ambedkar by birth.

Swami Vivekananda Biography, age, weight, height, friend, like, affairs, favourite, birthdate & other
Tumblr media
Vivekananda, original name Narendranath Datta, Datta also spelled Dutt, (born January 12, 1863, Calcutta —died July 4, 1902, near Calcutta), Hindu spiritual leader and reformer in India who attempted to combine Indian spirituality with Western material progress, maintaining that the two supplemented and complemented one another. His Absolute was a person’s own higher self; to labour for the benefit of humanity was the noblest endeavour. Born into an upper-middle-class family of the Kayastha (scribes) caste in Bengal, he was educated at a Western-style university where he was exposed to Western philosophy, Christianity, and science. Social reform became a prominent element of Vivekananda’s thought, and he joined the Brahmo Samaj (Society of Brahma), dedicated to eliminating child marriage and illiteracy and determined to spread education among women and the lower castes. He later became the most-notable disciple of Ramakrishna, who demonstrated the essential unity of all religions. Read the full article
