swami vivekananda speech tape

April 18th

i am more and more convinced that this tape is not authentic.

but i am also more and more convinced that this doesn't matter.

some other major religions have been telling huge lies, major whoppers, gigantic fibs, and they have managed to convince large numbers of people to not question these obvious fabrications. they have made entire careers out of lies, quasi-miracles, and suchlike preposterous stuff; and they have gotten many people to willingly suspend their disbelief.

so who am i to question a rather minor hoax? more power to the tape-makers.

the malayali marxist reappears! such a source of amusement you folks are!

i had in mind your own religion most of all. has *anything* your prophet marx said ever come to pass? the fading away of the state? communist states are the most totalitarian and fascist of all.

the dictatorship of the proletariat? they got the dictatorship part correct, but it is not the proletariat, it is the feudal types who are the dictators.

dialectical materialism and the inevitable course of history? the inexorable course of history has consigned marxism to the garbage emphatically.

your god (history) and your prophet (marx) and your BOOK (mao's red book) -- all proven to be false.

yet this giant hoax continues to occupy the minds of many converts. amazing.

even a rat hole like Bangladesh has guts to kill our soldiers...I seriously doubt whether our politicians are men enough.

Rajeev,

You are correct. The tape is fake. When I sent the information to my friend, he enquired in the circles that can validate the authenticity of the tape. The following is what we got as reply:

Dear Udayshankar

We are 'pretty sure' that this audio clip is not of Swami Vivekananda.
There
is no record that his talk was recorded at the parliament of religions.
It
is a pity that someone thought it necessary to produce such bogus
material.

As if Hinduism has not taught any hoax! C'mon man,be sensible.Every religion has its own marketing strategies. Why use the great Vivekananda's name to show off your ignorance or ego?

Rajeev,

That malayali venom do not deserve a reply. Due to their constant worship of Prophet Marx & Lord Lenin, all malayali marxist terrorists do not have any other productive work ( kerala - the land of hartals, unemployments,SFI/DYFI hooliganism) other than distruptive & diversion tactics.
Today some real fundementalists rule CPM using the Gulf money & and silent suport from Islamic & Christian militants (esp modern day kerala cardinals/bishops).

To that malayali militant:

EMS-inte jaara-santhathigal ivedeyum kayari nirangunno?
At least Rajiv showed the guts to post that it was a mistake. Unlike the mallu marxists who still propogate lies without any inhibition. St Thomas theory, 'kerala model of development' etc. And your marxist guru claim the credit for anything that was good for the state and in which they have never been part of : sree narayana movement, temple entry movement, vaikom satyahraha etc.
Now poyi valla paniyum cheyyadey appii...

Rajeev,

The "Malayali Marxist" here. Your tendency to jump into conclusions is pathetic. Proletariat, Chairman Mao, my foot. I care two hoots for your Commie pals.

I must, however, add that the Marxists live in India and work towards a cause they think is best for India. The methods are wrong, the results are poor, but their intentions are clear. That puts them in a superior place as compared to some American NRI like you, who , sitting in the US, advise Indians on what they should eat, and how they should behave.

Let me also add that I am not the same guy who took on you for writing in Outlook, though I enjoyed the stir that he created.

Now take another guess about my identity. Missionary? Mulla? ISI? But why bother? Your time is too valuable to spend on simple creatures, you'd better spend your time googling news so that you can come up with another expert opinion on China.

More power to "Arm-chair" journalism.

The same marxist terrorist trying to propogate another gutless lie.who cares for these stalinist pigs?

Hey malayali marxist,

Sorry I cannot stoop low (like you) to the culture of numerous 'illegitimate' kids of Kerala Stalin - EMS. Why bring up casteism again & again as any cheap comrade? You seem to show signs of getting trained from Sunday school madrasa( showing intolerance towards hindus & their traditions)

Regarding your comment on toddy sector, Kerala govt., is today run by the Bishop houses . These Inquisition cells have successfully replaced the toddy sector with their rejuvenated (methylated)spirit, sandalwood & land mafia. This has resulted in numerous suicides, 96% of them hindus. Learn the truth & grow up, comrade,before accusing anyone and everyone who tells truth. Or you can continue being another parasite from a bishop house propogating blatant lies and cursing others..

roughly translated as...

Raama son ,

Who are you? Are you Velappalli nadeshan's mother-in-law's son to support rajeev's bum?Didnt you get any good coconut tress to climb to get toddy today,Is that why you are saving his and others bum?

(You need to know Kerala and malayalam to get the real meaning.Velapplli nadeshan is Rajeev's father I think,and reference to coconut trees is this nadeshan is a big liquour(coconut liquour) barron in kerala.) .I think this is references to Rajeev's caste,which is usually liquour tappers who get liquor from cocnut trees.They control the Kerala liqour industry.

Guys, Looks like this Mallu Dog's master has let off his chain again & he's back at barking.I guess he's the same dirt who was profusely beaten in the last round. I guess we should let him keep barking. Unlike him other's who visit this blog are employeed.That he's frustrated with his own low class is evident as the only topic he raises again & again is 'cast'. One can't help him out of his frustration. Such people are not even worth contempt. The almighty has already send them to earth with sick mind; one cannot have worse form of existence. It seems that this chap has somehow got his way to America & he is so obsessed with his Visa that he has embossed it in his red chaddi so as not to lose it.
We can only feel sorry for his parents who may have unwittingly got it all wrong to create such a low-life scum.Having said that as we should not heed to a shouting begger who seeks alms, similarly we should avoid heeding this begger's needs for attention. Let this comment be the last in this series. It's better we ignore this mallu. Let him bark. And keep barking.The only thing he does is confirms everyone's doubts about his pathetic mind, everytime he barks. Ram do not respond to this dirt. Let the dirt dry; the wind will blow it off in few days.
