21st July –2026

  21 st July –2026 SARASIJ MAJUMDER 1.0       TMC (Ritabrata) i.e. The rebel Trinamool Congress faction lead by Ritabrata Banerjee will hold its 21st July Martyrs' Day (as per Mamata) rally at Mayo Road, near the Gandhi statue in central Kolkata. This location was secured after the faction received administrative clearance from the Kolkata Police. 2.0       TMC (Mamata Loyalist) has not yet finalized where they will hold this rally on that day. Possible Location that will be granted is ‘HAZRA PARK’. Who will come?? Threat: ‘Egg Therapy and CHOR CHOR’ SLOGAN by public. 3.0       INC: May organize the 21 st July rally at Brigade Parade Ground. My question: 21 st July—you belong to whom to day? And—by any interpretation, it can’t be called “Martyrs' Day”!   NOTE: REFER MY EARLIER BLOG ON THIS DAY FURNISHED BELOW. https://sarasij1majumder.blogspot.com/2026/06/21st-july-shaheed-dibas.html

INTELLECTUAL FREEDOM

 

HOW SHALL WE RECOVER OUR LOST INTELLECTUAL FREEDOM

Sarasij Majumder

Sri Aurobindo says ” How shall we recover our lost intellectual freedom? By reversing, for the time being, the process by which we lost it, by liberating our minds in all subjects from the thralldom to authority. The Anglicized ask us to abandon authority, revolt against superstition to have free minds. What they mean is that we should renounce authority of the Vedas for Max Muller, the Monism of Sankara for the Monism of Haeckel, the dogmatisms of Pandits for the dogmatisms of European thinkers, scientists and scholars. Let us break our chains in order to be free, in the name of truth, not in the name of Europe.

Our first necessity, if India is to survive and do her appointed work in the world, is that the youth of India should learn to think, – to think on all subjects, to think independently, fruitfully, going to the heart of things, not stopped by their surface, free of prejudgments, shearing sophism and prejudice asunder as with a sharp sword, smiting down obscurantism of all kinds as with the mace of Bhima…”. In India alone there is self-contained, dormant, the energy and invincible spiritual individuality which can yet arise and break her own and the world’s fetters.
