22) Meeting Tilak in Ahmedabad:
In Dec.1902, Congress conducted its 1st session in Ahmedabad (18th overall), on the financial backing of the ongoing Industrial exhibition (where Gaekwad read #SriAurobindo's speech)..
It was here that the two 'extremists' met for the first time: https://t.co/VU1MtcgETR
23) Sending Barin to Calcutta:
During his Baroda stay, Barin was much influenced by Sri Aurobindo's revolutionary ideas. So ~1902-03, #SriAurobindo initiated him into the secret society & sent him to Calcutta to work with Jatin & others..
The revolution was now picking up pace: https://t.co/095XYO3HnC

THE REVILED BENGALI INTELLECTUALS – THE MYTHS, THE DISTORTIONS, AND THE BIASES
Hindu Bengal had enormous capacity to absorb outsiders as their own. Every one knows of Sister Nivedita. How many know of Sakharam Deuskar, a Marathi Brahmin, who wrote in Bangla & worked closely with Aurobindo Ghosh? Read our piece 2 learn about him https://t.co/r9wLfAI2KU
The single most intellectually gifted freedom fighter is Aurobindo Ghosh. All the core ideas of mass movements of freedom fight emerged from within his influence sphere. Gandhi appropriated them without due attribution. Read about them here: https://t.co/r9wLfAI2KU
Aurobindo Ghosh was an unparalleled genius and visionary. Read how top ranking British intelligence officers assessed his ingenuity. What Aurobindo Ghosh initiated, Subhas Chandra Bose finished. The Indian Freedom Movement https://t.co/r9wLfAI2KU
It took the genius of Aurobindo Ghosh to coalesce ideas that existed in Hindu ethos into devastating tools of mass movements- Swaraj & Swadeshi. Both were coalesced in much maligned Calcutta in the first decade of the twentieth century. Read: https://t.co/r9wLfAI2KU
Different ethnicities have served as sword arm for the Indics at different times. Hindu Bengal definitely did so in the twentieth century. The debt that the Indian state refuses to honor. Our documentation of the contribution of Hindu Bengal: https://t.co/r9wLfAI2KU
A successful freedom fight relies on narrative, ideas, messaging, inspirational leadership, ideology and daring actions. Hindu Bengal struck for India on each of these in the twentieth century. Each claim documented below. https://t.co/r9wLfAI2KU
How many writings on Bengal revolutionaries quote British sources? We do - from Brit Intel, top police officers, Judges, Viceroys. For they understood their greatest foes - the revolutionaries fairly well. Read: https://t.co/r9wLfAI2KU
Hindu Bengali nationalism had never been exclusive. Irish Sister Nivedita, Marathi Brahmin Sakharam Deuskar, Rajput ancestry Ananta Singh were all part of the revolutionary movement in Bengal. They integrated. Something that racists can’t get. https://t.co/r9wLfAI2KU
Besides Gandhi was an out and out coward and left no stone unturned to bring down our best and bravest - the revolutionaries
What happened to Bepin Chandra Pal in the end? Didn't he pass away in obscurity while Gandhi rode to power on mullahs and mercantile/feudal networks shoulders, and with British support?

Gandhi's fundamental tactic of allying with sadists who help him in his quest to be unquestioned "great leader" can be contrasted to Bhaghat Singh or Jalian Wala Bagh martyrs whose drive was native radicalism, and willingness to face risks/death themselves.
