#SwamiVivekananda and his role in
Bharatiya Svatantrya Sangram.

“Bharat is in need of Bomb and Bomb Alone” and the Call “Rise, Awake & Stop Not Till The Goal Is Reached” was to kick out British from Bharat.
While most of us see Swami Vivekananda as a Sanyasi who spread
Sanatana Dharma to the world, very few know his contribution for freedom struggle.
UNFORTUNATELY Ramakrishna Matt, Swami Vivekananda websites have fallen into the hands of FAKE SECULARISM & APPEASEMENT of Gandhi Nehru.
There are loads of articles how Gandhi was inspired by
Swami Vivekananda whereas the truth is Swami inspired 1000s of revolutionaries to take Bombs & Guns to fight against British Oppression.

2 BOOKS –

Swami Vivekananda’s youngest brother Bhupendranath Datta was one of the key members of Anushilan Samithi, his book
“SWAMI VIVEKANANDA – Patiot Prophet” and
The Book “VIVEKANANDA AS A TURNING POINT – The Rise Of A New Spiritual Wave” by Swami Shuddhidananda thankfully provides Swami Vivekananda’s Role in freedom struggle, his influence on revolutionaries, the meetings with most famous gun
maker Sir Hiram Maxim etc..

THE FOUNDATION -

Swami Vivekananda gave a call at Madras on February 14, 1897, asking all his listeners to worship the motherland alone and exclusively for the next 50 years, and “give up”, he said, “being a slave”. For the next 50 years
“this alone shall be our keynote — this, our great Mother India. let all other vain gods disappear for the time from our minds”.
Note the Swami’s prophetic vision regarding the freedom of Bharat, it was exactly 50 years after he had asked his countrymen to worship Bharata Mata
that British Prime Minister Clement Attlee announced in the House of Commons on February 23, 1947, his Government’s decision to quit Bharath.
One sees this agony of Vivekananda expressed in a letter he wrote to Mary Hale on October 30, 1899, where he talked of the
“terrible massacre the English perpetrated in 1857 and 1858, and still more terrible famines that have become the inevitable consequence of British rule (there never was a famine in a native State)”, and how it killed millions of people. Passionately describing the degenerated
state of affairs, Vivekananda lamented how “freedom of the Press [has been] stopped already” and “we have been disarmed long ago”, and how, “for writing a few words of innocent criticism, men are being hurried to transportation for life, others imprisoned without any trial
and nobody knows when his head will be off”.
Referring to Vivekananda’s contribution in igniting the flame of revolution, Romain Rolland said, “The Indian nationalist movement smouldered for a long time until Vivekananda’s breath blew the ashes into flame, and erupted violently
three years after his death in 1905.”
Discussing Vivekananda’s and Sri Ramakrishna’s influence on the revolutionary movement in Bharat, Sri Aurobindo once remarked that the “influence of Ramakrishna and Vivekananda worked from behind”, as a result of which the "Movement and the
Secret Society became so formidable that in any other country with a political past they would have led to something like the French revolution”.
Sister Nivedita introduced Bhagha Jatin to Swami Vivekananda. The meeting changed the course of Jatin’s life.
It was Swami Vivekananda who instructed Jatin to take up the mission to bring together dedicated young men with “iron muscle” and “nerves of steel”, who could plunge into the service of the motherland.
Struck by his personality and dedication, Sister Nivedita wrote
“A young man came to me whose one idea is to make Swamiji’s name the rallying point for young India. He is wild about him and he is such a strong man himself.”

From The Life of Maharshi Aurobindo, it says
“It was Swami Vivekananda who introduced the cult of Shaktiworship
which was taken up by a succession of brilliant men, the first two being Aurobindo Ghose and Barindra Ghose, who might be called the joint authors of Bhawani Mandir.”
